S&W Pistol Rebates Coming?

Not really !!!! Whittaker has them for $299.99 before rebate. and in stock as of an hour ago.

Yea but what was the shipping cost? [edit] They charge $16 for shipping which makes them a few dollars more. The link I posted is free shipping.

Any thoughts on the rebate terms to get more than one model of the Shield? Picked up a 45 today at a local shop who had it for $365 before MIR. Wouldn't mind a 40 also.

Terms are vague with it potentially being a rebate good for one of each of the models (eg. you can get a rebate for 1 Shield, 1 Bodyguard, etc). It could also be read as M&P Shield 45 is one model, M&P Shield 40 is another model. Tried calling the number but probably too late as I didn't get an answer.

Offer limited to one rebate per each NEW model M&P Shield® Pistol, M&P® Bodyguard® 380 Pistol, or Smith & Wesson® SD™ or SDVE™ Pistol purchased between April 1,
2017 and June 30, 2017.

Good catch. It reads like one rebate per Shield, Bodyguard, and SDVE to me. I brought 3 Shields, so to be safe, I'm not going to put the rebates all in my name. The "Shield" is one model which encompasses the 9mm, 40s&w, and 45acp, the Bodyguard is another model, and the SDVE is the last. The text of the rebate reads as if it's good only on one of each...

Grab a Gun almost always has very competitive pricing on anything they carry and good, quick service.

Good guys to buy from.

Yea they do, but they charge about $7-$8 shipping on top of their advertised prices.

I bought three 9mm today and will submit 3 rebates. There's a place for the serial number on the form. One rebate per gun. It doesn't say person, it's per new gun. I purchased mine through Kentucky Gun Company with free shipping. Price is $325 before rebate and $250 after with a free extra mag for a total of 3. Sportsman Superstore is $240 after rebates. Free shipping no CC fee bit no extra mags.

What's confusing is why would they include the word "model?"

That makes it sound like the rebate is limited to ONLY one NEW Shield, Bodyguard, or SDVE...

To me it says all of these models have rebate per each gun you buy, no matter the model. Offer limited to one rebate per each modelM&P Shield® Pistol, M&P® Bodyguard® 380 Pistol, or Smith & Wesson® SD™ or SDVE™ Pistol . If you buy two SD's then one rebate per each one, three 9mm then 3 rebates per each model on Shield 9mm. Key words-. Offer limited to one rebate per each NEW model/gun purchased. Remember they're try to move a lot of guns out from obvious overstock. Rebates on each purchase will get that done.

The wording has me confused and concerned as well. I ordered a .40 and a 9.

I am hoping I can get both rebates. I know I can put one in my wife's name, she already carries a Shield, but the receipt is going to list both guns with my name.

I hope there is some clarification on this from S&W soon.
 
And the wording depends on where you read. From the online rebate form:

"Purchase any NEW M&P SHIELD® pistol, M&P® BODYGUARD®380 pistol, or S&W® SD™ or SDVE™ pistol and receive a mail-in rebate.
Offer valid April 1 - June 30, 2017"

Rebates | Smith & Wesson

No use of the word "model" there

Yea they do, but they charge about $7-$8 shipping on top of their advertised prices.

So? They still have very competitive pricing and good/quick service. Right now a Shield 9mm is $323 shipped from them. As far as I can tell, that makes them the second cheapest in stock 9mm Shield online right now, by all of $3 more over a place I hadn't heard of until today

That's why I said it depends on where you read...

If you are going to submit the form online instead of mailing it in, you wouldn't even have to read the word "model" and get all confused about it
 
I called Friday and asked the CSR who was very rude. She acted like I was asking a dumb question. When I asked if a 9mm and a 45 where two different models and she said I could get one rebate each.

I woulda told her the rebate offer is confusing and appears to be written by a 10yo. :eek:





Just kidding. :D
 
Just looked on the web site and this is how they have the guns listed two examples.

SKU: 11726
Model: M&P®45 SHIELD™ Tritium Night Sights No Thumb Safety
SKU: 10141
Model: M&P®9 SHIELD™ Crimson Trace® Green Laserguard®
 
Offer limited to one rebate per each NEW model.

I read this as offer limited to one rebate per each new weapon purchased so in my mind each purchase is of a new model. So buy 5 shields 45 you qualify for 5 rebates. Need comments from attorneys or someone who spent the night at a Holiday Inn Express last night. :confused:
