Feets / Collection / My build Are we tired of TM22s yet?

TM22 Pro w/

  • Simmons Pro Tube Red Dot
  • Tommy Enterprise Mag Sleeve
  • Magpul M-LOK Vertical Grip
  • Backup Iron Sights I had lying around

I am cautious about Turkish firearms, but this one feels solid and had no issues with couple hundreds of rounds through it. Very happy so far.

I needed to fully understand the 10/22 platform inside and out before seeing the appeal of these. To me it’s simply the design. Workmanship and qc are a bit of whatever when talking cheap Turkish guns

Cheap plus it scratches the tacticool itch.

Not everyone has the funds or desire to deck out a 10/22, some people are content with a decent looking polymer shell plus the Amazon light and optic special.

Not my personal choice (I'm too deep down the 10/22 road to turn around) but I get it.

Honestly I have both and somehow prefer messing with my TM22

Yeah my TM22 is the “tactical” one and 10/22 is the “sporty” one in my collection 😆

To me it’s simply the design.

It's funny to me that the objectively best designed TM-22 variant- the Standard- is also by far the cheapest. It's the only version that can be disassembled without having to take the top off, a crossbolt safety rather than the weird lever thing, and a better magazine release.
