Not sure that I need another ar15 but wth, ordered
Loud_Dumps@reddit
Idk why but I just want the lower
Top-Turn-2870@reddit
Buy it for the lower, sell the rest. Thats what I did back when they released a batch of these like a year or 2 ago and it barely cost me anything in the net. I’ve since built a rifle I actually wanted with it and very glad I did. It’s a cool unique piece that generates some good conversations at my 3 gun competitions.
medyaya26@reddit
Just because it says “magpul”?
Top-Turn-2870@reddit
Yep. Just somewhat unusual/unique. Most people don’t know that Magpul ever made lowers.
KCFlightHawk@reddit
Need this lower.
RAMIREZBURGERTOWN@reddit
That’s why I bought mine
FriendlyRain5075@reddit
Those 1:8 5R barrels are supposed to be great shooters.
B52doc@reddit
Can confirm
Loud_Dumps@reddit
I believe the LEO ones are chrome lined as well
Tragic_BoB@reddit
Same
studd-beefpile@reddit
Yeah I want one
PackyCS1@reddit
No mag but won't shit to Co? WTF?
dannaaj@reddit
Called them about this on a previous buy, they do ship to CO, it’s an error on their website.
PackyCS1@reddit
You rock! Thank you!
Apathetic_Anthonio@reddit
Idk why I am subbed to this. I’m broke.

Insane how much M&p have went up since I bought my first gun in 2018. M&p15 sport was $499 at scheels. To this day have never had a single problem with that gun.
It took me until last week to throw a 3.5 pound trigger in there and I’ve been missing out.
No_Commercial2117@reddit
This is not a sport. Better barrel, better lower among other things
omahusker@reddit
I see - had no idea these were different and that the barrels are chromelined
pointblankjustice@reddit
This rifle retailed for like $1600 inflation-adjusted dollars in 2011.
djryan13@reddit
Why would LE buy tan?
Mr_Krinkov@reddit
LEO love to pretend they're in the military.
Loud_Dumps@reddit
They normally wear FDE plate carriers near me (not a desert)
Mr_Krinkov@reddit
They crack me up.
lilcoold12345@reddit
Lol I mean it could be they like the color...
grubhubby@reddit
I think for the same reason the rest of us do lol
djryan13@reddit
Fair point
mynewaccount5@reddit
I'd recommend against this dealer. I purchased from them a MP15 that was supposedly in good or better service condition.
I had a failure after about 30 rounds(and a few misfires). Casing got stuck in the chamber and neither me nor the RSO could unlodge it. Brought it to the gunsmith and he informed me that some parts were missing and some parts were damaged. The buffer tube threading was stripped and I forget what he said was missing but it was all in that general area and I guess the nut wasn't able to seat properly. Had to buy a new tube and some other parts and after labor it came out to about $100.
In addition the shipping was very poorly done. The gun was literally in a plastic bag in a cardboard box. No protection of any sort.

That sucks, as others said, I can understand the gun issue maybe being missed but the shipping should have been better. They are local to me and I’ve had good experiences with them. I bought one of the m&p 1.0 pistols and have loved it. I didn’t put two and two together when buying lol I’ve always went in store and never checked the website. They shipped it well, came in a plain cardboard box but was completely sealed in bubble wrap because I didn’t buy a model with a case.
sickels61@reddit
You posted the exact same thing on the RRA posting from PSA a day or so ago.
IsThisIt_@reddit
He did and he’s not commenting and the Rock River AR15 listed in the post. I asked about something posted earlier in May, the M&P 15 with quad rails, and he was responding to that.
BannedUserAccount@reddit
I bought a trade-in Tavor X95 from them and you would've never known it was a trade in, came in factory box, all pieces included. The key is to read the description and understand exactly what you're getting.
Top-Turn-2870@reddit
Keep in mind with guns like this, they’re trade-ins that came is massive batches. They do the best they can to represent them fairly but not very realistic to go through every single one. Doing that is going to add a couple hundred bucks to every rifle and they’re suddenly neither a deal nor going to move very fast.
The shipping I’ll agree there is no excuse for.
OregonTrailislife@reddit
It seems like a realistic thing to check the products you are selling, unless you are just a drop shipper.
mynewaccount5@reddit
I don't think a gunsmith taking about 10 minutes to inspect each rifle is asking too much. At least to make sure that the thing is functional and in the condition that they claimed it's in.
mcdavis86@reddit
That sucks, I am no shill for them, I have got one from them, off a GB auction and it shipped fast and was packaged well. It was a pretty mint Auto 5 so maybe they paid a little better attention.
Jerzsubbie@reddit
Got one! I’ve been wanting to grab one of these for the lower and maybe for the barrel.
Squirrelynuts@reddit
The M and 🅱️ 15. Good price if you want an intro or beater rifle.
lab_kitty@reddit
If it helps: I picked up one of the M&P 15s with the quad rails from them recently. I've put ~200 rounds through it and it performed well with 0 malfunctions so far. It's got dings on the rails and heavy wear on the mag well near the pivot pin, but it looked very similar to the amount of wear that was shown in the pictures. I am pleased with it.
I also picked up a trade-in G21 at the same time and it looks almost new. It still had some of the factory grease inside and barely any wear even on the slide release or barrel. Way better condition than I expected.
studd-beefpile@reddit
Yeah I want one
