At the gun show (this past weekend) I picked up a M&P 15-22 (model 811033, 25 round mag, threaded barrel). I've been wanting one for a while. I love shooting my Stag AR-15, but it gets expensive. Also, my son loves to shoot also and the AR is a bit much for him. He has a 22 rifle (Savage 64 fxp), but it's hard for him to load the magazines.
So, I walk up to the table and the price is $410. Couldn't pass that up... I said, "I'll take that one". Note: this was the first table we walked up to. That was such a good price I knew I wouldn't find it cheaper... and I didn't. We then walked over to another vendor and bought an additional magazine. After we got home we stripped it down, checked it all out, and put it back together.
My son and I went to the local outdoor gun range today. It was hot, so it wasn't crowded. However, another "dad" was their with his daughter and they were shooting their S&W 15-22. I thought that was cool.
We proceeded to blast through a Federal 550 box. Shot everyone of them WITHOUT a single issue. Flawless fun. It's so light that my son and handle it with ease. He can also load his own magazines....
We had an absolute blast with this new gun. We were there for hours and only shot through $15 worth of ammo.
If you are considering one.... go for it. You won't regret it.
