I’d like a size in the middle between yours and the factory. Have also looks at some of the conversions to put the pull back charging handle like on most AR’s

If your TM-22 has an aluminum receiver, Alex's works well. There's a half dozen reasons why Alex's is better than Tommy's. Neither work well with plastic receivers.

Rule #1... When tearing it completely down to thoroughly clean every 1000 rounds or so (swab it out after each use), remember the order of the 3 screws holding the top cover/rail down. 3 different lengths. Longest at the rear, shortest to the front. 10-15 in/lbs max and use blue Loctite. You're tightening steel bolts into aluminum threads.
