I just read on there website that Shields isn't part the rebate. It could be there using third party for there rebate that can't read.
Going to send mind in, what am going to loose price of stamp.

I hope you blacked out your SS number before sending. The last three times I blacked it out, with no problems
Just filled out the form, and going in the mail Monday 13, hope I have your luck.
Last rebate they also sent long with the check a beautiful coin, thanking us for our service. This is what the front looks like!

I also got that beautiful coin. My daughter is a manager at a poker room and she snatched it for a card marker.

I thought the rebate said excludes shield and M&P 15-22. I bought my shield from buds for a good price and now am going to send in my rebate for an even better deal

While back I sent in my 15-22, and they sent me rebate.
I think it's a third party company that doesn't know the difference, all they do is process the paper work!

The program does say it excludes the M&P Shield:
http://www.smith-wesson.com/wcsstore...EST_July12.pdf
It also says it is for active duty, retired, or disabled veterans. I am a veteran, and I spent two years after my four on active duty on the disability retired list, for a total of 6, and was then discharged with less than 30% disability, so I'm not classified as retired. I've never pursued disabled veteran status because it is my understanding that you have to have a 30% rating or higher.
SO...I don't qualify, and even if I did, I bought my Shield on April 15th. Double doo-doo...

If you were in the service active or retired you are eligible for the rebates. You must have some type of military ID.

Yes, I understand that. I'm US Army Retired. I just filled out the rebate info, however, it does say that the M&P Shield is excluded. I'll send it in anyway. Nothing to lose but a stamp and envelope.

When I sent mine in it didn't say that the shield was excluded. It must be a new policy.

It usually takes a couple of months to receive the rebate. The first half of the year Rebate Form didn't exclude the Shield (Naturally, it wasn't out yet when the rebate offer began). The rebate program for the second half of this year does exclude the Shield.
Which rebate form did you send in? It appears that you probably sent in the earlier rebate form which, if I remember correctly, expired on June 30, 2012.

Thanks for your reply. Several people are getting the rebates from the first half of the year on the Shield. I doubt if any rebates are coming to people like me (who couldn't find one to buy) are going to get rebates for second half of the year purchases.

Sent mine off in June. Shows the recieved it but has not come in yet. Not sweating it too much though. It just made it easier to buy the M&P over the Glock Blue Shield gun with Mil Discount. Otherwise hard to pass a 400 dollar glock. I really love my M&P much more comfortable gun.

Maybe they are too scared to say no to our vets, both physically and for the bad media backlash.. Good reason too!!
THANKS FOR SERVING EVERYONE!

You do know the M&P sells for $399 with the military discount right?
And you get an extra magazine and free shipping.

With discount or rebate? If you mean rebate yes I know and took the M&P and it came close to that give or take 20$ but no extra mag .If discount then no I didn't know but I know nobody offers around here.. (Central Louisiana). Tell me where to order my next one!

Just checked and mine was shipped 10-17-2012. I've received several over the past couple of years and it usually takes about 5 days from shipping date.

That's ok, I consider it free money, more ammo, I see it in my future, like I need to visit Walmart tomorrow.
