Derya/RIA TM-22-18 tear down

Quick tear down of the Derya/RIA TM-22-18.

[@earldelsanto]

I like all the metal on metal sounds. Very cool little rifle

[@seniorsurvivor7381]

I found both the Cooey and the Savage 64, come apart quite easily. Two screws pop of the stock, two more and the barrel slides right out. Slide the bolt forward and remove the charging handle and the bolt comes out. I found the Barrel nut super tight, the barrel also needed some persuasion with a brass punch to crack it loose and even the handguard screw was really tight. Coming apart by hand, it did not. It will in the future, as none of those need to be reefed on that tight. Really nice rifle and by far, the best of its type that I've seen since the Ruger SR-22. Very solid, smooth, accurate and reliable. Well worth the money and still cheaper than the SR-22 was when it was available. Great video and thanks for posting.

[@JUBABU4]

Thank you for the video.I picked one of these up yesterday. 199.99 from PSA.

[@kgsgarage369]

I wish we could get them so cheap. Mark up in Canada is insane.

[@earldelsanto]

200 bucks ? He'll yes, why wouldn't you buy one.

[@kgsgarage369]

[@bbbbojangles2737]

@@kgsgarage369in my US state they are $279 usd. About 350 OTD with all the checks. They are very cheap in other states.

They're as nice as it gets here for a 22 until they're banned too.

[@pc287]

Ive heard you can change the charging to the right side, is this true or is it only left side?

[@atbatb7799]

Perfect.

[@dutchleussink156]

Thank You

[@user-tw1ht5wm1i]

Thanks. Nice Ar- Style Weapon.22LR rifle. Will a red scope work.? Thanks. 🥂🏹🏴‍☠️

[@kgsgarage369]

For sure it will, I just need younger eyes!

[@XxnosmanXx]

So does it hold zero every time you remove the picatinny rail for cleaning? Seems like they could have done something better to remove the bolt.

[@kgsgarage369]

Actually it's not bad. It seems to hold zero as accuracy is still good after cleaning.

[@jimmansayagan7681]

Hope Armscor will consider fabricating DERYA TM-9 9mm version.

[@earldelsanto]

Heck yes.

[@kasaperkan]

Çok şanlısınız bizim ülkemizde üretilip kullanamamız çok üzücü 😊

[@kgsgarage369]

Teşekkürler, yazık çünkü çok eğlenceli bir silah!

[@martinrps13]

That is for the how to. I bought one just to use with a silencer. This thing is heavy and needs to be lightened up some. It is just as heavy as a bare bones ar-15

[@kgsgarage369]

Unfortunately we can have neither an AR-15 nor a silencer in Canada. I agree it's pretty solid. It could easily lose some heft in the middle. I think they were going for looks rather than weight.

[@alexxu3004]

I honestly would rather they over build it, turkish guns are kind of known for cracks here and there

[@garybuckhave7508]

are they going to have derya tm22 feather rimfire semi-automatic dissambly

[@MegaBait1616]

👍👍.................

[@noora4416]

Cool video. I was wondering what that red plastic piece in the chamber is. Can we just snap it off or is there a procedure to remove it? Thnx

[@kgsgarage369]

Its just a plastic flag that sits in the chamber so you can easily see the gun is not loaded. Simply pull the bolt back and it slides right out.

[@noora4416]

@@kgsgarage369 hmm the bolt seems to get stuck about half way, that there isn’t enough wiggle room for it to come out

[@sultan2012ful]

@@noora4416 your safety is on, switch it to off then pull back the bolt

[@gohan4314]

My picrail 3mm allen key screws might as well be welded in. They will not come loose. Without stripping the allen head. Any suggestion?

[@PercivalTheSeeker1982]

You could try heating the screws, worst case you can drill them out and rethread for bigger bolts.

[@kgsgarage369]

Yep a bit of heat from a heat gun and make sure you have the proper size allen key.

[@timbeaton5268]

Is there a way to decock? Haven’t been able to figure it out. I was told you’re not supposed to dry fire a .22, so I’m just making sure I’m not damaging it.

[@kgsgarage369]

Hold the slide back, pull trigger, slowly move it forward with the slide handle.

[@timbeaton5268]

@@kgsgarage369 I’ve tried that, but the trigger always ‘resets’ and doesn’t decock. It clicks and then I’ll pull the trigger and it’ll still dry fire.

[@kgsgarage369]

@@timbeaton5268 I tried this when I got home from work this morning. You're right mine does the same thing and doesn't de-cock once the slide is moved forward after pulling the trigger on an empty chamber. I will try it loaded today if I can. . Derya nor RIA selling the same model, have any info I could find on de-cocking the TM-22.

[@ethanbadayos2170]

I hope someone will figure out a way to put an extend Rail.

[@jeffreynye3019]

To be clear, if you wanna put a magpul stock on, you have to change out the buffer tube also. Correct?

[@kgsgarage369]

No you can reuse the buffer tube it comes with

[@jmichna1]

It is a commercial diameter buffer tube... just need to make sure the stock you use is for commercial buffer tube, not mil spec, as commercial tube is .02" wider than the mil-spec tube... 1.168" (commercial) vs. 1.148" diameter (mil spec).

[@stevenm385]

Do you not have to clean the trigger assembly?

[@kgsgarage369]

Sure once in a while it stays pretty clean actually, 500 plus through it is barely dirty.

[@DK-hw6cc]

Does this have a usable buffer tube? Or do you need to purchase one with a new stock ?

[@kgsgarage369]

You'd have to replace the buffer tube...no guts just the tube in order to fit a different stock.

[@seniorsurvivor7381]

They make a new version or second Gen with a full length handguard and adjustable stock which uses a buffer tube style stock and AR style butt stock with adjustable cheek rest.

[@donovanllewellyn1699]

how easy was adding the foregrip and optics

[@kgsgarage369]

Very easy, takes only a few minutes to do both.

[@thatdrunkcanuck1381]

Assuming you've taken it to the range by now, how do you like it ? Worth the 500 ish bucks? Any malfunctions shooting? Thanks

[@kgsgarage369]

I have been to the range but like everything gun related in Canada there are more hoops to jump through. I have to shoot with a current member for the first 3 visits, so I'm held up again. Currently waiting to get there for a second time as i have to literally wait on one of them to be "available". Sooner the better, I just want to peacefully go shoot on slow days and be able to make my videos.

[@thatdrunkcanuck1381]

@@kgsgarage369 I ended up buying one and took it to the bush and fired about 300 rounds as quickly as i could (only have a couple 10 rounder mags) and i gotta say this things pretty cool so far, not too picky with the ammo and the accuracy was good with a cheap red dot.

[@Steener5292]

I bought mine a month ago and have fired 800 rounds with 1 malfunction. It is a very well built and reliable firearm and I would take this over the GSG16 all day as this seems to be what it is being compared to.

[@Bleeoshzuan]

@@Steener5292 I love that it's aluminum rather than plastic.

[@S3dINS]

@@Bleeoshzuan that’s one thing I don’t like about the m&p 15-22. Although it’s really light and pointable I’d have liked an ally top and bottom receiver.

[@erics3893]

Is it picky with ammo?

[@kgsgarage369]

I'll find out tomorrow! finally getting out to the range.

[@whalleyllama1820]

I've found that the best ammo to use in this firearm is the cci blazer high velocity 1235fps ammo. I'm quite glad because at my local ship it is very inexpensive

[@bosshog7790]

Only tried with 3 brands, and they all worked well with no issues. CCI (old copper plated HP), Winchester copper plated HP, and some other stuff made for 22 AR type rifles.

[@daltexmex]

Once you clean you have to rezero? Yeah no thanks

[@stevenm385]

Why do you think that?

[@daltexmex]

@@stevenm385 because you have to take off the rail and unscrew everything.

[@stevenm385]

@@daltexmex but the optic stays put for me at least and it goes back on exactly the same way. I guess it depends what type of optic you have and if it covers the screw entrances
