I've had a few custom AR's over the years, they've never stuck around long because I always end up feeling like they were to expensive for what they did.
I've had my eye on the
M&P15 Sport for awhile, mostly for the basic design and price point, of course, all the shining reviews since its been out haven't turned me away either
My favorite LGS has had them on sale for bit at $599 including two
free 30round PMags....figured I better jump on it.
I picked this Sport up yesterday. Outside of the chinsey handguards it seems very well built. The Sport is also remarkably light and easy handling, nice trigger too. I'll get out in the next days. I plan to top it with a riser/Bushnell TRS-25 micro-RD and that's it.
