One of my customers works for a FFL in my area and was walking around with a demo. It is a dedicated belt-fed .22lr upper for the AR. It feeds from either cloth belt or plastic links. It even comes with a little mini-ammo can. It hand cycled smothly and looked to be very well made. It was a pretty slick design. There's a box that straddles the rifle. The belt is fed from one side and links are collected in the other. The box that attached into the magwell collects the brass.
I'm not ready to drop 2K on a .22 upper, but it sure was neat.

its a 1919 browning machine gun in 22lr
they bought tippman arms, and they also make the mini 1919a4s, and 1917s

they are miniature 1919s in operation

buy a semi auto 1919 for 1k - you get get the same exact operating system, on a much better gun, for much less money.

ive seen a few tippman guns, and they are really cool, but not worth the cash when you can typically buy the real deal full size for less


my opinions only

Now that you mention it, the guy said that this company bought Tippman's shop when they closed down.

And I agree, a 1919 would be money better spent.
