Tim said the barrel should be on the way today and I already have most of the other parts. When I've saved up a little more money I'll get the M1 carbine magazine adapter he makes so I can use the M1 carbine mags for the longer rounds I'll be loading. I have a homemade version of the mag adapter and it seems to be functional. I don't plan on using the commercial pistol 22 TCM ammo but I may make some adjustments in the futue and see if the commercial stuff will fly.

I got the barrel from Tim and it is really nice with a good solid parked finish and the profile is a semi-heavy carbine profile. I fitted the barrel to the receiver and slide the lo-pro gas block in place to check the fit and it was great -- just tight enough to have to work it some to get in place. the gas block is a set screw type so it should be a bit tight to start with. I can't believe that I knew the barrel was coming and I didn't order a pistol length gas tube till after it got here so I can't add the full float handguard or test the operation. I need to work on my 22 TCM brass and get some rounds loaded for when I can test. I'll post some pics when I get the chance.
