Not to detail this thread, but does anybody have an opinion on the cmmg .22lr conversion kits? I've seen them online (I think at palmettostatearmory.com) for about $150 or so. Just a bolt carrier group and 25 round mag.

In my opinion, you are better off saving the extra $200 to get the full upper.
The conversion kits work OK, but accuracy is just so-so (due to the faster twists on most 5.56mm barrels), and you have to fire about 20 rounds or so of 5.56mm or .223 when you are done shooting .22LR to blow out the debris that will accumulate in your gas tube from shooting .22LR (the dedicated uppers have no gas tube).
