S&W M&P 15 Sport - Page 2

I just bought one - paid $619 at my LGS. What sold me was that the range where I go has one in their rental counter that literally has thousands of rounds through it - and they claim it only gets cleaned about once a month.

Someone else mentioned the Nutnfancy review on YouTube. He'd got nothing but good to say about it. I'm not an AR guy (this is my first poodle shooter) but so far, I'm happy with the purchase.

Thanks, Lane - that's great to hear! I watched the TNP review along with others and in reality, I can't say that I've seen a bad report. I'm beginning to hope this comes together.

You won't be dissappointed. They are great rifles and milspec, you can later add all the tacticool mods if you please.

I have one and it runs fine, no issues nor were any expected. They are a quality entry level piece. I also have mini 14's and prefer them for home defense, just because I'm more familiar with the system, having trained a fair amount on a version of the M14.

I think the Mini is worth a bit more. I think I paid 6 for the S&W and almost 7 for the Mini tactical model, blue. One advantage to the trade is your magazine costs will diminish immediately.

Amen to that! Plus I already have plenty for my Colt. Commonality/compatibility is partially driving my decision. If I sold the gun outright I'd buy another AR anyway. Time will tell if I'm meant to have a M&P Sport or something else.

I really appreciate everyone's feedback!
