My LGS happened to have a slightly used S&W M&P on the shelf the other day. So I made them a deal, traded my dusty Stag lower, a Kel-Tec PF9 that I never shoot and some cash. I feel good about the deal as I now I have an operational AR as opposed to waiting for a BCM upper to come in stock and then hunt down a BCG.
I know the following is very opinion based and that's ok, I like hearing them. I'm not prepping this rifle for combat or competition, but I do enjoy having quality equipment even if I only wind up shooting cans and paper with it. The rifle will honestly get fondled more than shot, I have to drive 30 minutes to my inlaws' to have a place to shoot, and then can only push it as much as their collective patients will allow (range in the area is $10/hour).
What sort of things should I be looking at for upgrades? My top two "wish list" items now are a Geissele SSA-E trigger and an Aimpoint PRO. Right now I'm just running the detachable carry handle (love those irons), Magpul MIAD grip, MOE forend, and MVG grip.
