Mag Grumbles

So the Kimber was being a pain today.  Wouldn't get through a single mag without a fail to feed of some sort, until I downloaded the mags by 1 (two 8 round and a 7 round Kimber mags.)  Guess Wilson Combat may be seeing some of my hard-earned moneys in the near future.

On the other hand, the M&P 15-22 is running strong, other than a handful of mag/mediocre ammo feeding issues (maybe every-other mag;) I've put about 700 rounds through it in the last couple days without even as much as a squirt of CLP through it.  My 10/22 rarely goes 50 rounds without needing some attention.  Although when switching between the irons and the red-dot, it's important to put the optic back on the correct rail, otherwise you get slightly frustrated when it suddenly start putting the rounds six inches high and right.......

The M&P15-22 is on my get list. Especially now with the MOE version available. I've had good luck with my 10-22, but even if I did not I'd be hard pressed to get rid of it. It's a SS with mannlicher stock that's just sweet to hold.
Best,
McVee

I've got the 10/22 hanging around to eventually drop into an M1 Carbine stock... I've already got Tech-sights on it, so it's just a matter of finding a stock set for a good price.
