Right M&P15 Sport This Time
My LGS called me and told me my Sport arrived and it does in fact have the 1 in 8 5R barrel! What sucks now is that we are taking a trip with my kids for a few days and I won't be able to go shoot it until some time later next week. I can't wait to go pick it up!

Guns are showing up more everyday as my Walmart had 5 Ar-15's in yesterday and I bought a DPMS Sportical for $550 with my ladies discount and I danced out of the store.

My Walmart has had a drop in the number of AR's they have been receiving. I picked up a Colt 6920 last week. They had 2 come in that day and that was the 1st AR's they had in for a couple of weeks.

I just happy as hell I finally found one with the 5R barrel still! I still have a little wiggle room left and I am putting a few changes on it already.

You are really going to like that barrel. Other than that there isnt a heck of a lot of difference between it and other MSR's. That barrel makes it stand out in the field.

That's awesome (except for having to wait)! I hadn't realized for a while that S&W changed the barrel on the Sports. I can't understand why. Cut costs maybe. But it was such a selling point for the rifle. It's why I bought one anyway.

I believe Sports without the 1:8 5R barrels started showing up on the shelves about 1 to 2 months ago.

I was told they stopped making them with the 5R barrel at the very beginning of March
