Hi,
Just thought i would say hi from the UK as i am the proud owner of a new M&P 15-22 after defecting from the Ruger 1022 side
Have not had a chance to get to the range yet, but i have a couple of questions which hopefully can be answered ?
1. The serial number starts DUU3***, should this have been manufactured with the corrections / updated parts to cure the FTE issues on earlier models ?
2. In the manual it states "do not dry fire". I have read various comments on it is OK, Do Not etc..... However, if you should not dry fire, is there a manual way of de-cocking OR does everybody leave the hammer cocked and switch set to safe when storing / not in use ? I only ask as i was taught it was bad practice to leave springs compressed, best left relaxed ?
Just got to wait until Thursday evening when i can get to the range to have a play
Your help appreciated
Dave
