Use with AR’s chambered in 5.56/.223 only. Compatible with piston-systems.

CMMG AR-15 .22 LR Stainless Steel Conversion Kit

Frequently asked questions:

Q: Does this kit work with a .223/5.56 AR-15?

A: Yes! The barrel for a .223/5.56 is very close in size to a .22lr barrel – 3/1000″ larger. This kit allows for shooting of a .22LR from a standard AR-15 upper. A dedicated .22LR upper can also be used, and it will typically increase accuracy somewhat. Most users report that this kit results in 3-4 MOA accuracy (1.5″-2″ groups at 50 yards) with a .223/5.56 upper. Generally, the slower the twist rate on your AR-15 barrel, the better the accuracy with a 22LR round.

Q: Can this kit be used with a dedicated .22LR upper?

A: This kit can be used with a dedicated CMMG .22LR barrel, but you’ll need to purchase this part, and swap out the collar on the bolt – this will convert it to a dedicated .22LR bolt.

Includes:

  • CMMG .22LR bolt carrier group assembly (stainless steel for superior durability)
  • One 25-Round .22LR Magazine (fits in AR mag well)

It's one of the best working 22 conversion kits I bought. Works flawlessly. And I dont have to worry about what to shoot if im just training with my rifle. I'd give it a 5out5 but nothings ever perfect.

The extractor is the main issue with this. Once i replaced the spring with one from bore buddy along with the charging handle insert and buffer plug, it works a lot better. Quite fun when it works.
stephen.libby Verified buyer
I am sure the conversion kit would be great. I The day I received the kit I was informed that my kids were getting me an AR style 22 rifle for my birthday (Aug 12). Had no choice but to send the kit back.

Took about 50-100 rounds to break-in, jammed up nearly every time. After 50+ rounds it broke-in and became flawless, so give it time, use cheap rounds to get it broke-in. In the picture I have my 5.56 BCG in a dedicated spot since it's a lot cheaper to fire .22LR, so the CMMG BCG stays in the Upper. I'm using a PSA AR-15 with 1/7 Twist NATO barrel. This should fit any standard AR-15 upper.

A few things to note:
• .22LR runs "dirtier" than 5.56 or .223. DO NOT skip cleaning your rifle, it will be less forgiving after shooting .22LR, just the nature of the round.
• If I had to, I'd go and just buy the kit that had the 3 magazines. It's hard to find these for some reason and any alternatives just suck. Get the 3 mag pack and be happy.
• I have the CMMG Anti-Jam charging handle (bought it separately), and sweet tap dancing Christ that thing is garbage. Just use your stock charging handle. Maybe I got a bad one but I get repeated failures as soon as I try using it, even well after the break-in period. I tried 10 rounds back to back between my stock PSA charging handle and the CMMG - each when the magazine only contained 10 rounds to eliminate the mag pressure variance and it was the CMMG charging handle that induce a failure every time. Your mileage may vary.
• 36 Grain is recommended, but don't be afraid to use 40 or 32 if it's all you can find. I broke mine in with 40 grain as none of the 8 gun shops around me had 36 grain.
• Note that the BCG separates, you WILL have your first 50+ rounds fail to eject, it'll be fine eventually - and remember that it separates when you go to clean out your BCG (bolt carrier group).
• Your Forward Assist will NOT work with this unless you get the adapter with the Echo kit (I think that's the kit name). Honestly, you probably won't need it because I didn't when I put 500 rounds down in its first day. I cleaned the barrel and BCG every 200-ish.
• I recommend switching your BCG to 5.56 or .223 and fire a round or two, the extra pressure after shooting dirty .22LR does something for it, I just can't recall what at the time of writing this.
• Some reviews state "wobbling" of the magazine, I have no issues myself.
• There are notes elsewhere on the internet to not run in a .223 Wylde barrel config - I have no experience with said barrel so be mindful of that note.

Personal thoughts:
• This is a great product, its easier than having another upper on-hand to switch ammo types, I've even got a slot in my gun case just for the BCG to field swap.
• Some may state it's better to have a dedicated .22LR platform, and if 100m+ accuracy is your goal, then yeah, probably. But having the ability to change in literally seconds, not have to carry 2 rifles, and not having to buy more scopes/lights/magnifiers/etc, is the real benefit here.
• Buy if you: want to utilize your AR15 even more, if you want to shoot cheaper, don't want to buy more scopes, don't want to bring another gun to the range, if you want to use your gun but your girlfriend just wants to shoot the "fun 22 rounds", and if you don't want to spend $400+ for another rifle (just to then buy every attachment again).

I purchased this to save money while training and siting in my families AR rifles. Besides a couple during the first 100 rounds and only maybe 3 failures to load it works great. It probably already paid for itself.

Roy Brown Verified buyer
Not sure the problem is with the ammunition that I was using but it failed to feed after 2nd or third round and then it the firing pin would not make proper contact with the round during automatic feeding. I could manually place the round in and then it would fire properly. Will attempt different ammo to trouble shoot the problem.
martin.johnson-3205 Verified buyer
I purchased this as a gift for my daughter. I am well pleased with my CMMG AR-15 22 LR conversion kit for a few years. My brother bought one as well with my recommendation. Easy to swap in my ARs, fun to shoot 22LR and train with my rifles. Highly recommend for more shooting with cost saving 22LR.

Interestingly enough it seems like I may be the only person having issues with this product. The internal parts work well
it seems, however when i insert the clip (3 clips) the gun will not function. The slide appears to be hanging up on the clips. Would there be
a simple fix or do i return it ?
