Any help is much appreciated.

I have a Ciener conversion kit and it works great, But I hear there kind of hard to find right about now.  Good luck!

I would contact Spike's Tactical. He is working on some dedicated 22lr bolts and he may even be working on some 22lr drop-in conversion kits as well, im not 100% sure on that. His 22lr bolts will be like a Ceiner bolt, but built with a Higher Quality Material, and They will also be Hard Chrome'd. He also tweaked the design a little bit to enhance reliability.

I have tried getting in touch with Spikes for the last three business days.  I have called at least a dozen times with no answer. I have left my cell phone number, I have used the inquery form on their website, I have emailed them with questions and given them my work number.  They have my cell number, my work number, my work email and my home email....and have heard nothing.  

What gives?

Mike has been out of town. I spoke with him this morning. I ordered my 10" upper. Wait could be between 4-8 weeks. It will be worth it but thats a long wait for me.

I will try a couple more times and then I am done.  I will try Tactical Solutions.

He just got back today, they went on a family vacation. I actually spoke to him this morning. I think it would be worth trying again IMO.

I spoke with Mike and Angela on Sat. and just place my order this a.m.  Mike tells me there is a delay with the platers getting the first batch in, but he is going to take 1 sample from each batch and run about 5K rounds thru it before releasing that batch to the public. He is concerned about his reputation, and WON'T put junk out on the market that becomes a boomerang for him. Heck, I waited 10 weeks for my Form 4, I can learn to wait a few weeks for my other toys.

Ordered my Spikes Tactical .22lr M4 1st week of Feb. Was told shipment will not be until end of this month. Considering Spikes quest for quality control I think its worth waiting for.
