M&P15-22 rifle

Love em.

Picked up number 3 at walmart over the weekend 20% off. It was right at $380 w/tax, and I they unloaded and sold me two 1k bricks of win's black rifle 22 at the same time.

They did such a better job than Colt/Umarex did

How did you get 20% off?

Walmart had 20% all in stock firearms fri-sun

Part of the black friday sale

So; YG, did you ever get one? I dig mine so much, I move the red dot around so I have to take it to the range and re-sight it in pretty often!

I would be weary of S&W AR variants after seeing the missing support and proprietary parts.. Such as the M&P10. Never know what might break and not be replaceable

They are the nuts.

I shoot a lot of steel challenge. The S&W's are very reliable. I've seen very few hiccups. The only ones I have seen are probably operator induced, aka they needed lube.

An alternative is a Nordic NC-22. It will fit on a standard AR lower, so if you have a lower with a replacement target trigger you really like, the NC-22 is the way to go.

No...ended up getting a Savage .223 bolt-action instead.

I see. Well, that young'un of yours would for sure enjoy the light weight and extra cool features of the 15-22...I'd bet ya.

Yep... A lot of people sure do like their M&P 15/22s... then again, I really liked my M&P 10, until I needed to replace the barrel and found out that S&W does not sell barrels, nor do they provide that service for customers, even for a charge.

I think if I wanted another semi .22, I'd be going with another 10/22... or if I had to have one with the AR manual of arms, just get a dedicated upper for my existing AR-15 lowers.
