Hello,
I see Brownells now has both the CS-Carbon Steel and SS-Stainless Steel 22 conversions. Am I better off with the stainless steel conversion? Does it jam less since it doesn't have the oxide finish on it? I still get FTE's with the CS one I have when using high vel ammo. Std Vel works better. Thanks |

Here is a better deal unless you have a C&R and get dealer pricing at Brownells. Then at dealer price and free shipping on purchases over $150 July 2-5, Brownells is the logical choice.
ps - @t Palmetto they use BDM magazines |

I have the stainless it it has been outstanding. Easy to clean, very reliable. I have not tried the CS CMMG. I did have a Ciener that run fine but would get dirty quicker because of the amount of lube to run it.
The stainless take very little lube. I put 1 drop on each rail. The Parkerized takes more lube generally to run well. More lube =more crud build up. The stainless requires little or no break in. I have had a total of 7 FTE's with my SS CMMG. 3 FTE's from the first mag, 4 when it got dirty. Cleaned it and it ran fine. I have 1150 rounds through it so far. Dave |
