The CMMG 22BA651 Bravo conversion kit transforms standard AR-15 rifles chambered in 5.56/.223 into precision .22 LR trainers without requiring tools or permanent modifications. This drop-in system maintains the familiar manual of arms while dramatically reducing ammunition costs for high-volume training sessions.
What Makes This Different
The Bravo kit utilizes CMMG's proprietary bolt and barrel design that cycles reliably with standard velocity .22 LR ammunition, eliminating the feeding issues common with basic conversion bolts. The dedicated .22 LR barrel delivers consistent accuracy while the enhanced bolt face and extractor provide reliable extraction and ejection. Unlike simple bolt-only conversions, this complete system maintains proper headspace and timing for optimal performance.
Key Features
- Complete drop-in conversion requiring no gunsmithing or permanent modifications
- Includes three 25-round magazines with anti-tilt followers
- Compatible with mil-spec AR-15 lower receivers in 5.56/.223 configuration
- 4140 chrome moly steel barrel with 1:16 twist rate optimized for .22 LR

Field testing demonstrates consistent sub-2 MOA accuracy at 50 yards with quality match ammunition. The system functions reliably with both standard and high-velocity .22 LR loads, making it suitable for precision training, small game hunting, and recreational shooting.
