M&P 15 sport

[ru44mag]

I finally did it. Bought my first AR. On sale at Rural King for $549.99. I really like it! Also found out Big R only price matches when it suits them.

Congratulations and welcome to the club! AR's are just such great guns. Light, versatile, fun.

Good decision!

I know a few people that have the m&p sports and have had very good luck with them. ENJOY!

Thanks! I want to buy some extra mags. Any recommendations? Source? Reasonable price?

MagPul, pick whichever gen you like. Several places to buy them cheaply on the web. Haven't priced them lately, but should be pretty cheap. Check DSGarms.com , Botach, GTdist.com and the other usual places.

Looked like the best price last night. $99 for 10. Almost pulled the trigger. Thought I would wait for recommendations first. Thanks all!

I hope you enjoy your rifle. I really like mine.

Mainly, I bought one because I couldn't believe an AR would sell so cheap. It has been great through about 1500 rounds.

With a 4x scope I can shoot about 2" 30 round groups at 100 yards. I'm pretty happy with that.

Just don't let the people get you down who want to poo all over it because it isn't a DD.

Been toying with the idea myself. I've always been a handgun guy, and not very familiar with rifles. Midwest Guns in Mishawaka has the M&P 15 sport for $499 this week, very tempting.

 

[mastery]

I've looked at possibly getting one of these as well. Figured I'll wait until one of you have your eye on a new toy you just have to have and throw your M&P up for sale here for a nice little discount.

That is a really nice price! You should jump on it! I took the Rural King add to Big R. They said they price match. I thought, save a 45 minute drive to Kokomo, why not? Big R told me they would not sell it to me for $40 less than they paid for it. I asked if they price matched or not. He said they price match, but not if he is going to lose $40. I said, "So you price match if it suits you." The store manager said, "yes". I could not believe it. So I took a drive. Also ordered 9 Pmags form Midway for $12.30 a piece. Just enough to get me over the $100 Mark so I could get $10 off. That should do me for awhile.

It's junk if it's not BCM or Daniel Defense.

Be warned: they multiply.

I like to shop at Rural King for guns. I usually wait to buy a gun until they offer the 12% rebate promotion. It was enough to convince me to pull the trigger on an AR last time I was in.

Damn! I need to get off the schneid and get one. That price is unreal!

Thought I would update the Big R ordeal. A few weeks ago I called and spoke to the Regional office and told them my story. Very nice conversation. They were apologetic and grateful for my input. Later he even told me they discussed my story in a big meeting and are now using it for educational purposes. Long story short, they sent me a $50 gift card and I am shopping at Big R again.

That's a great price! Congrats!

My first AR was also a M&P15 Sport. It's been a very good rifle so far. No problems at all, runs great, no complaints. Great value.

Magpul P-mags, and I've had good luck with most after market steel mags, never had one but have heard horror stories about cheap plastic (polymer no name) mags.
