Well, it's a stock M&P 15-22 Sport probably fresh off the shelf and never fired. I wouldn't call it shitty but certainly not a fucking go-to-war weapon. Definitely for looks in this case. I mean, she couldn't even figure out how to flip up the rear sight.
Yeah right. Seriously I've shot all kinds of guns and if I had 1 weapon to take to unknown situations, 22 would be the best option. My opinion of course.
It's a bad opinion. Yeah: the mob used ..22s. Pistols. For up-close killings. Because they're quiet and the round usually doesn't leave the skull, so it's cleaner, and less likely to hit unintended targets.
But in a rifle? For combat? Or self-defense? Ridiculous. The most high-powered .22LR has 1/5 the muzzle energy of the weakest .223; at 5 ft, in the face: sure. But I've been shot w/.22 LR, up close, and at an angle it wouldn't even penetrate my ribs (thankfully). The whole point of a rifle vs. a pistol is to extend your effective range; at that extended range, a .22LR is too weak to reliably stop opponents. If this is your "1 weapon to take to unknown situations" and the "unknown situations" involve something more hazardous than varmint hunting or plinking, then you "chose poorly."
People absolutely underestimate a .22 and that gun. If i has only one gun that I could leave my house with that’s the one I would grab. Full size ar is great but can you carry 10,000 round with you? I can. And it cost me nothing.
No it's a mossberg,the M&P is a much better rifle. I wish i had spent the extra 200$ and bought that instead. This is basically a mossberg plinkster with a bunch of plastic on it and a retarded magazine. So I looked again and it may be a Smith, i don't care enough to go to the basement and look at the one in my house

Buy a real AR and a 22 conversion BCG.
You give me a .22 and I will fuck anyone up. Light, less recoil, accuracy, consistency. I think people underestimate the 22
Stop shooting me with that, it tickles!
One in the ear. That’ll do it.
It penetrates ribs easily... so a shot in the chest will convert your ribcage into a hand grenade... not very good for your organs.
As I've said before, it takes an ice cream scoop out of your target. If you're shooting at someone's toes, you got other problems.

I love them.

Protip: Only run copper washed/jacketed ammo through it though. Lead ammo will foul the gas port over time, and that is a flaming bitch to clean out.
Also, even if you're LARPing close your ejection port cover
Truth. Minimags.
