Anyone here built this yet ? Im guessing re-enforcement plates arent needed for a 22lr build(??) On a 22lr kick of late… About to put together a 22" galilo… :-)

      It’s just matching rtb bolt+barrel combos. I think psa has a higher shipping cost too, I’ll have to look at my orders.

        re: matching

        when you say matching do you mean matching in price ? or can the rtb combo(barrel included) be used on this model(db22). or is a printed barrel the only option ?

          It’s all the same bcg and barrel design. I’d consider ar22 standardized with different 22lr ar types having different names like sw15-22 or bc22. I meant price. Factor in the barrel cost and rtb bcg in a combo is roughly $85.

            sorry if i am coming off as dense… but can i attach the rtb bcg and rtb barrel to this db22 build ? if so, then i am going to build asap…

            priting a barrel comes with a learning curve for me…

            which is why i am just going to pick up the build pack from py2a for your 22lr yippe kay yah.

              AR22 barrels will not work for the DB9-22. I looked into redesigning the conversion to accommodate them and convinced myself that it couldn’t be done without also changing the lower. At that point it makes more sense to just build a DeAR 22 instead.
