#1 22 TCM site on the web

- Wed Dec 13, 2017 10:43 pm #15102 So my wife asked me what I wanted for Christmas. I told her and she said find it and I’ll buy it. I have checked for hours calling dozens of dealers, sheaching dozens of website that advertise the rifle, checked Armslist and Gun Broker with little luck. I was bidding on a “new” rifle on Gunbroker with a dinged up stock, but dropped out after $325 for that rifle. I’ll pay up to $400, but I can’t find anybody with a rifle in stock. Does anybody know where there is a new rifle for sale? Please adivse.

- Thu Dec 14, 2017 11:43 pm #15109 Any of the gun stores that sell the Armscor products should be able to order one for you. Most of the gun stores likely don't stock them in their store. When I bought mine a couple of years ago, I special ordered it from the gun store. Actually the gun store's website showed that they had them to sell. I bought it online, it was sent to the gun store so I could fill out the Federal paperwork form to pick it up.

- Fri Dec 15, 2017 12:08 am #15110 I've checked inventories of three major wholesalers that I deal with regularly throughout the year, and none of them have shown either variation of TCM rifles in stock at any time. Same with their 40 grain bullets.

- Fri Dec 15, 2017 2:50 am #15114 It sort of depends on what state you are in and how close one of the LGS are. The LGS I used to frequent tried to expand before the election and moved into a new larger store front. After President Trump won the gun market sort of dried up and they were too overextended and went out of business.
Here are a couple of examples;

- Thu Dec 28, 2017 5:49 am #15127 There will be a as new RIA rifle back at the warranty location in a week or so. Sending back my rifle for a refund. It's a early rifle I believe #317 with a perfect smooth bore for a early rifle. It shot great with bullets touching at 25 yds.
I couldn't handle the bolt lift with my arthritis hands shooting factory ammo.
Bought a converted AR to 22 TCM.

- Fri Dec 29, 2017 1:15 am #15130 Ar converted. Interesting. How does it work?

- Sat Dec 30, 2017 5:30 am #15132 The AR conversion I have uses a modified 30 M1 carbine magazine with spacers in the AR magazine well to fit it. Having problems with function so trying to order a thearguy.com PPS-43 adapter conversion that uses PPS-43 magazines. Have a gun show customer that has the PPS-43 conversion and says it functions 100%.
