After playing with the M&P 15-22 for a while, I had gotten the itch to buy an M&P 15T real bad. Looking around locally best price on new ones is $1069.

Found a used one today, test drove it and decided to take it home to live with my 15-22. The "T" was made prior to the "cost engineering" improvement in 2010 or 2011. It has Troy Battle Sights, Troy Free Floating Quad Rail, Rail Covers, MagPul Pistol Grip, CTR Butt Stock, MagPul Vertical Grip, Chrome Barrel - Chamber - etc, a trigger that has at least been introduced to a stone, Springs and 3 magazines. Rifle looks like a "safe queen" with no marks, scratches or rubs and squeaky clean, even inside the bolt and bolt carrier.

After a little friendly discussion and stacking hundreds on the counter we agreed on $875 pre-tax. I am real happy.

The 15-22 has acted a little jealous and growled a little but when placed next to each other they are hard to tell apart. The 15-22 has a CTR, MBUS, etc also.

Looking forward to twisting the tail of this rifle over the weekend and the 15-22 also of course.

you wont be sorry, its a sweet shooter, mine had a trigger pull like a elephant gun, i ordered a timney trigger group for it today, thatll drop er down to about 3 lb.

I put a CMC trigger in my Armalite; you'll probably notice a big improvement with the Timney. The trigger replacement is probably one of the best improvements you can make.

Agreed, put a Geissele SSA-E in mine, only internal I upgraded.

The 15T really shots well and functions flawlessly. The trigger isn't horrible but it isn't great either. I have never been a fan of two stage triggers. I think that a new trigger is in order in the near term.

I also would like to build up a .204Ruger upper for it and to use this effectively a new trigger is a must.

Thanks for the input.
