I love my 15-22 even though at first I was unhappy they deviated so far from the platform and considered something else.. Would've been cool if they just based it on a mil spec polymer lower and then built it via all their proprietary parts, but whatever it's a great gun. Very light, very fun, maybe not as well built as a 10-22 but a lot more fun to shoot and no less accurate, as reliable as any .22.

On my mind for awhile has been picking up the performance center version, more $$ but sounds sweet on paper anyway...

A big part of what I love about them is the weight. A dedicated upper would take 80% of the lure of these rifles away for me.
