Innovative Arms Integral Suppressed M&P 15-22 thoughts?

[SouthPaw]

Does anyone have one of these: ( http://innovativearms.com/silencers/iasw-integral/ ) ? Thoughts on them? MSRP is about $1100 and it looks like street price -$1000.

Pros: One tax stamp to pay. Pretty cost effective considering you get a functioning rifle with a suppressor. Lightweight, AR-15 Platform, accessorized easily. Built off of a proven platform for reliability.

Cons: Suppressor is obviously dedicated to only this gun and cannot be interchanged. I could build a different rig and have the option of using said 22 suppressor on multiple hosts.

I haven't found many reviews on them but what little I did find was all positive. My other option I considered was SBR'ing a 15-22 and buying a separate suppressor. I would be looking at two stamps ($400), a 15-22 ($450), suppressor ($400 +/-), gun smith work to cut barrel and rethread ($???). Give me some input.

You have pretty much thought of everything. I like Innovative Arms. I have a few in stock. (Not complete rifle.) Now trying to choose what you want to do

To each his own I guess. I would strongly consider the 10/22, but depends on the style you want. I have an M&P 15/22 at the shop I am going to integrally suppress. Just haven't decided on design yet.

I think it's a pretty cool idea. I shoot my 15-22 suppressed quite a bit and it's a ton of fun. I think this has a major "cool" factor to it being integral. They claim that high velocity rounds will come out of this rifle at subsonic speeds. This isn't an attribute that I'd feel very good about. I sometime shoot 200-300 yards with my 15-22 and don't feel like it'd do that well with the slower velocities. In the end I really like being able to move the can around to different hosts too.

NOTE: I have the "performance center" model of this rifle, I think it's different than the one they seem to be using for this rifle.

I really like my 15-22. I also really like the idea of an integral suppressor. I'd do it!

I bought a 77/22 with the integral suppressor barrel and still need to go pick it up from the seller. The tax stamp was approved a couple of weeks ago and I've been too busy to go get it. It's been 5 months, but in thinking I paid right around the $1100 mark for it.

I think I would make time....
