Default M&P 15 Tactical
I bought this rifle brand new it has the magpul flip sights and magazine does any one know if it has a chromed barrel wat I've researched the older tactical with Troy flip sights do but can't seem to find out if the newer version does . I payed 910.00 for it good deal or not also

No, it does not have a chrome lined barrel. The barrel is treated with Melonite, same barrel as the Sport. That is a good price if you were buying today. A little high, but not outrageous if you purchased last month.

I have also recently bought one and couldn't be happier. Super accurate and all the ergonomics ARs are famous for. Think you'll be happy with your purchase- I know I have no buyers remorse.

Shoot it & I think you'll agree

you made a score with the melonite barrel, it is very durable and with the 5R rifling very accurate. Shoot it and enjoy it!

I too just purchased this model and I love it. Very accurate and so far shoots anything it's fed with no issues.

Well purchased and timely. It would probably go for about $2k today with the right panic buyer. Great barrel you got there.

I bought the MP15T back in October at a LGS (in no cal) for $1090 before taxes and fees.

That is an awesome price, well done.

Wolf ammo uses a polymer coated steel case with a bi-metal jacketed projectile. It won't hurt your barrel.

A good explanation of it can be found via the link below.

Ok, just in case you haven't heard, do not put your magpul on the gas block, it will melt it
