S&W M&P15 Not MA Compliant ???

[glock23]

I was told that there isn't any MA compliant M&P AR Rifles, Is This True ??

 

[06LemansC6]

No

 

[Starvin]

No, I do not think it's true at all. There are plenty of S&W guys here. I'm sure they'll verify.

 

[glock23]

I was hoping to purchase an AR from S&W

 

[06LemansC6]

You can, you just can't get all the evil features us folks in free states can.

Go to Four Season web site and under new long guns down on the left side of the page they have a MA compliant S & W, unfortunately it says to call for availability. So they probably don't have any in stock but you never know.

 

[Make It In Mass]

Go to the S&W web site. Most (if not all) of their Mass-compliant AR's have a model name that ends in a "C". One exception is the M&P 15 FT. Unofficially, I say the "F" stands for "fixed", referring to the pinned stock.

 

[glock23]

any other dealers you would recommend ( I know FS is really busy ) Anyone own a M&P Thoughts on them ??? How about Yankee Hill Machine

 

[Starvin]

do a little searching on here. TONS of info. I've been searching and reading for about a month straight now and have only scratched the surface!!!

There are a number of MA compliant M&P15s.

If you listen long enough, someone will get around to telling you that .22 is a solid choice for bear hunting.

Only grizzly bear.

This one is. M&P15T. Picked one up at FS about 2 months ago. Love it.

Or better yet, that 5.7 x 28 is the best stopper ever invented, on humans and grizzlies alike.

glide do you mind if I ask how much they charged, and how long the wait was to recieve it ??

 

[jasonj84]

I put my name in at Four Seasons after the Obama craze, waited a month, they called, out the door for $1299 + tax.

FYI... Emailed Yankee Hill Machine about one of their listed carbine uppers, pinned/welded brake... They told me if I ordered it this week I would be waiting until at least Sept '09

 

[chris_1001]

I have one (M&P15FT) and the "F" is for fixed (stock)...

Kudos to Four Seasons for keeping the pre-Obama price.

Either $1299 or $1399 (can't remember offhand). I happened to call on a Tuesday and they said they were expecting one the following morning. Needless to say I had them hold it for me. 1 day turnaround, a little expensive, but well worth it!

 

[glock23]

I guess I just need to commit to something and wait for it to come. Have you had any issues with yours ?

 

[glide]

Problem Free. Though I've only put about 300 rounds through it.

Nice rifle, very light, and the buis + swat rail make it a steal.

But I guess it depends what features you are looking for...

I think the M&P15FT is the best deal going on AR's right now. You get a quality upper/lower and parts. Plus you get an LMT bolt carrier group (very good) and Troy BUIS/Rail stock. IMHO the only way to get better quality is to have one custom built to spec, or to spend $2000+ on a Larue or Noveske rifle.

You won't be disappointed with the S&W, I know I'm not, even after 1500+ rounds.

PS: Do a search, there are tons of threads asking the same question, with the same answers and most of them have pics of people's rifles.
