AM15 Full Auto .22LR M16 Upper Receiver with 220 round drum!
This Is Awesome!
AM15 full auto UPPER RECEIVER allows you to shoot slightly modified.22LR American 180 drums, in either 165 round, 220 round or 275 round capacity, on your M16 host receiver. The full auto AM15 upper receiver conversion is a BATF APPROVED OPEN BOLT .22LR rimfire caliber conversion that ejects through the AR mag well.
It uses fire control parts that are similar to Colt Light Machine Gun parts, which will be provided with the AM15 conversion. The AM15 conversion at this time will only work on registered receiver sear drilled M16 lowers. We are working on reliable solutions for owners of drop in auto sears.

This is bad ass, all you have to do is first buy an m16 (only about $10,000 for a legal one) and this will work for you. But other than that, this is awesome.
Won’t the drive by gang bangers just luv this one
I’m curious about the heat factor produced by such a high volume of rounds fired. How has the manufacturer designed the barrel to prevent burnout?
I’ve fired all manner of weapons, from sub-machine guns to .50 caliber guns, and all are prone to barrel burnout from excessive firing. The rate of fire of the AM15 seems almost guaranteed to cause barrel failure over time.
Any thoughts on this one?
Would this work on a semi-auto as well? I guess not.
The AM15 conversion will only work on registered receiver sear drilled M16 lowers. It WILL NOT work with drop-in auto sears or with lightning links. THIS CONVERSION WILL NOT WORK ON ANY SEMI AUTO AR15.

Is there any body out there that has one and can tell me how they work jams etc. It look like you replace the orginal M16 parts with parts supplied. Are these part from the Saw?
