How is it the same mag?
The rounds are much smaller aren't they?
And changing out a barrel isn't easy, right?

I wouldn't say changing a barrel is super easy, you'd kinda have to know what you're doing. Need a vice, torque wrench, and you'll have to put the gas block on

yeah, upper swap is the way to go, i wouldn't want to be messing with all that all the time.

Plus, you would have to re sight your optics every time you did a swap.
Just get two different uppers. Every single thing is interchangeable, except the barrels. So, if something breaks once the zombies come, you have replacement parts.

I thought we were talking about .223 and 22 here. Not 308
Posted on 3/18/13 at 9:27 am to Uncle JackD
The rounds that come in the minimag boxes are way smaller.

I knew you'd be here soon, with this 300 blk talk.

Wow, completely misread... 
It would take a complete upper swap and mag swap for a 22 change right?

Smaller BCG as well?
How much are complete uppers for 22s going for?

Not sure what they're going for, never really look into it because I can buy a 223 upper for around the same price.
From what I've gathered, you can buy a complete 15-22 for just a bit more than the upper.
