I'm a 300 blackout guy for suppression and stealth but the expense and weight had me considering .22lr. This excellent video has convinced me to implement my own TORSS setup. Thanks for putting this all together as it will be my blueprint but I'm sure I'll change a few things along the way to suit me personally. I've viewed 6 of your videos so far and I'm always amazed at the amount of information you put into such limited time frames. Very well done my friend.

pretty cool video. it’s a concept i’ve been thinking about for a while but not then the plunge, inspired by tnps old tactical 22 video. i have a vir2 and an eotech that need a home. i have a 10/22 but the stock options are really lacking, besides what you picked out. they just feel expensive for what you are getting.

Thanks for watching. I'll say this about that Midwest chassis: From a strictly materials and manufacturing perspective, I think MI delivers on the pricetag. It exhibits that same quality level I would expect from any "upper-middle tier" AR accessory at that same price point, and it totally transformed the overall feel of the build. It doesn't feel like "just a 22" anymore, it feels like a modern carbine which happens to be a 22. Whether or not that is necessary or justifiable is a different question, and from some perspectives it might just be an expensive way to put "lipstick on a pig". Still, I think it's really good lipstick for the money.

I'd be hard pressed to decide which guns to save if I had to bug out too. I believe you realized that trying to bugout, in your particular circumstance, with a full tactical military loadout was overkill. I don't think I would commit to a .22lr as an alternative however. I would just take a few extra mags and ammo for a concealable self defense 9mm in a ROL minor evac scenario. Now if I had to get the family out of harms way and then turn back an armed invasion from Canada, I'll be Tactical Tony. BTW I want that Marlin! I have six of them but that stainless with the pepper laminate stock eludes me!

One thing that trips me up with the extended BX mags is the extra material volume for not a lot of extra rounds. I like the concept a lot but I think I would use something like the tandemkross base plates with an extended mag release so you can get the mags out easy without the extra chonk that comes with the bx15/25
@Triangle26
Жыл бұрын
You definitely aren't wrong about the inefficiency of the extra material, and the system that you describe is probably worth experimenting with. My only concern would be that it could transform reloading from a gross motor skill into a fine motor skill. I can "grip and rip" a BX-15 with my whole hand, whereas the BX-1 is more of an exercise in finger dexterity.

@@Triangle26 I was thinking about that. also the direction of the bx1 is harder to determine in the hand than with a banana mag. I was thinking a strip of griptape across one of the surfaces as a quick reference would help, would still be more fiddly.

Cool video. I definitely think there's room for a tactical .22 for many of the same reasons you stated, such as massive amounts of easy shooting, quiet ammo for a given size and weight. And 15-30 rounds of .22 per mag is no slouch. Just wish your acronym didn't sound like "Taurus." :)

Would you consider a 9mm PCC to be a reasonable compromise between the arguments of ammo availability and lethality? I’ve been seriously considering picking up one of the new Henry Homesteaders with the Glock mag adapters as my “bugout gun”, as otherwise I’ve been purely a collector and I don’t think I can continuously provide .30 carbine and reliable magazines for my M1 Carbine, and while I have over a thousand rounds of 7.62x39 I’m not sure how much I can trust my well worn M59/66 and my grimy 1952 Tula SKS-45 (on that note can you make a video on how you would recommend removing particularly stuck firing pin retainers and bayonet screws lol). The thing is I’m also going to be going to college so I need to be careful with how much I spend on my next purchase
@Triangle26
Жыл бұрын
I think a 9mm PCC is a perfectly viable “bug-out” gun (and the Henry looks super cool). I definitely wouldn’t try to talk you out of that, if it’s what you wanted. That said, I don’t think the 9mm is a good compromise on paper. It’s heavier than 5.56, much less lethal out of a carbine length barrel, and not even that much cheaper. I think the strongest argument for 9mm PCCs in a bugout role is the ability to share magazines with a sidearm. Otherwise, I’d prefer sometime with much lighter ammo (a 22) or something much more lethal (an intermediate rifle caliber). That’s just my opinion though, as long as you have a semi-automatic weapon that shoots bullets, you are doing pretty well 🤷♂️ I’d trust a well worn SKS with my life any day of the week. I’ll look into making a stuck firing pin retainer vid for ya. I’m not sure I have much to say about a bayonet mounting screw. All stuck screws are pretty much the same: Make sure you have a proper fitting bit, and torque until it snaps free. If it’s really, really stuck - heat gun and penetrating oil can be your friend.

Amazing video. I’m up in Canada and waiting for my license to arrive in the mail. Since suppressors are prohibited should I just get a flash hinderer? Since 10 round capped magazines for 10/22 are the law of the land up here does that change the math on a setup like this? Know any other 22lr rifles I should check out that would work for a setup like yours? Basically every other Rimfire isn’t capped at 10 rounds up in Canada for some dumbass reason😂… Thanks for the great content. Also I’m getting an SKS because of you haha
@Triangle26
Жыл бұрын
Thanks a ton man, it makes my day to hear from people who appreciate and really engage with the videos. A few thoughts on your questions: 1) I think you can achieve similar capabilities without a suppressor. A flash hider should take care of light signature. Additionally, there are specialized 22LR loadings which are designed to minimize unsuppressed sound signature (CCI “Quiet-22 Semi-Auto” would be my recommendation, if you can get your hands on it). They aren’t going to be nearly as quiet as a suppressor, but they are absolutely quiet enough to usefully fill this niche. 2) I’ve got no problem with the 10-rounders from capacity perspective, my only concern is ergonomics. Changing a flush fit 10-round mag is a fine motor skill, and we want that to be a gross motor skill. Potential solutions include extended baseplates and/or paracord pull tabs. All I really care about is being able to orient and control the magazine by feel alone. If we have to look at the magazine in order to tell which end is the front, that’s a problem. If we can’t do a mag change with mittens on, that’s a problem. If we solve those problems, I’m not worried about an about 5 extra rounds. 3) I can’t think of any other 22’s off the top of my head that would be appropriate for this project. My second choice after the 10/22 would be a dedicated 22 AR, and I can’t possibly imagine Canadian law is any more friendly to those than to the Ruger… Hope that all helps, thanks again for taking the time to watch and comment. Good luck, and I’d love to hear how you enjoy your SKS!

What about an M and P 15/22 rather than the Ruger 10/22? I have no experience with this weapon but I did see a recent video where they had put 30000 rds through it with no issues. They recommended it highly and it is much easier on the pocket book than a 10/22 setup like you have.
@Triangle26

I don’t have personal experience with the M&P 15/22 either, but I’ve heard good things. If it runs well, I think it could certainly fill the roll. My only immediate concern with the M&P would be the magazines. First of all, they much larger than they need to be. A lot of extra material per loaded round. Second, the magazine internals are exposed rather than sealed. I’m curious if that can lead to feeding issues in messy outdoor environments. Nothing is perfect though, the 10/22 has drawbacks of its own.

Interesting concept but I have to disagree with your reasoning for relying on .22lr. True M193 is my minimum in long arms and I won't go smaller than 9mm for sidearm. I need something to be more reliable in function and effect on targets to be as quickly incapacitating as possible while maintaining lower recoil, and capacity, and overall weight. But, dictates of the mission and all that.

That's certainly fair, and there is a great deal of evidence and common sense behind that perspective. I think at the end of the day the question I ask myself is, "am I confident I can feed that weapon for as long as I need to". If the answer to that question is yes, 5.56 is clearly a vastly superior choice. If the answer is no, the door is open for radical compromises.

It's funny this just popped up in my feed, I just ordered the 13" Midwest chassis and a Faxon pencil profile barrel last week. I was thinking that I'd also go with a folding buffer tube adapter, but they all seem to be surprisingly spendy so that might have to wait. Looking at your video and other peoples setups online it seems like Midwest could have done a better job with that contour, maybe something that would support beavertail AR grips. In general do you have any issues (pinching, being uncomfortable in general, etc.) with where the grip and buffer tube connect?

Nice! If I could go back, I would have gone with the Faxon Pencil barrel as well. I have no complaints with the grip.

Otherwise they feel great, and I am having entirely too much fun with them right now.
