AR 15 .22 Conversion Kit Question, page 1

I have several ammo can metal and plastic. Was just wondering of they made something a little more specific for this application. It probably exists but for the life of me I can't think of what to type in to search it. Or if a specific company has a good one.

You know what come to think of it I do have an el cheapo multitool kit that stripped out but has a nice plastic case, gonna have to go scope that out, you know the kind with the screwdriver/ socket set, made in china crap people give out at Christmas!! You would think though for the price of the kits it would come with a case instead of just a throw away blister pack. For a while I was doing as you in the range bag but lint etc just no good me thinks.

Whats the best idea for cushioning then? Side note scored a free pistol case from my father as he had an extra laying around he didn't need, bonus it's a S&W so it will match my rifle, not that it matters but ocd does kick in often lmao....

LOL...Well, A standard S&W AR bolt and bolt carrier are made of forged steel! There isn't much that can damage them. Anything that immobilizes your bolt carrier group while being stored, that doesn't seal it off and/or subject it to dirt, dust or moisture, will be fine. A cloth rag that has been spritzed with gun oil, loosely wrapped around it, would be fine!

If you want to keep it with the weapon for a quick change over to the original caliber, then whatever you are storing the original magazine(s) in, should accomodate the BCG, as well. I really like the zippered pencil pouch that I use for my extra slide and barrel for my Glock. It breathes, while able to keep a light coat of oil on my parts, and keeps the dust and dirt, away from them...

Good shooting!!!!

Anything is better than the factory blister pack it comes in. And I usually run my guns a little on the oily side vs dry, not dripping but well lubed for sure. In fact my one .22 bolt action sat in the attic for about 5 yrs because when we moved in it got tossed up there and forgot about as I bought it when many years ago when I was in my teens. Still in the original shipping box although fired many times in the past. When I happened across it thinking it was gonna be nice and crusty from sitting so long, nope shiny inside as the day it was purchased. But now that I have room for it in my cabinet there she sits for my boys as they are now at the right age to start shooting. But I find as I am getting older I prefer to weed out the junk and organize the needed stuff a bit better, guess the wifey is wearing off on me after all these years!!!

ZCORR bags work well for storing guns or gun internals.
