I'm going to go the Howa Mini route when LSI releases them to the market. If they do a 22" sporter and a shorter heavier barrel, I'll probably go with the 22" sporter like I got with the 6mm ARC.
Same plan. Thinking about getting a barreled action from Brownells and cutting the 22" to 20" and then either the B&C M40 style or another Stockys VG stock for it. Trying to keep the suppressed length equal to a 26" barreled rifle.

That's my only beef with my 22" sporter Howa Mini 6 ARC. With the adapter and can, its probably 27 to 28" inches. It's not heavy, but a little on the long side.

22 ARC Minis are slated to start hitting shelves this month.

Called brownells to see if they'd be getting any barreled actions and got nothing other than the least helpful CS person I have ever spoken to 🤣

Guy at LSI said Brownells will not have any barreled actions from the first allotment which is already sold out, so everyone should call Brownells and tell them to get on board for the March/April shipment!

The two people I spoke with at LSI weren’t very friendly.

They will not sell you a bolt unless you’re an FFL either.

I got an email with the phrase “Willy nilly” in it from them, to tell me they wouldn’t.

Told me all I need to know about trying to deal with them. I’ll wait for any product I want to make it into other hands first.
