At $850 a case, I'll start selling off what I have! I would not enjoy shooting ammo that was that expensive. Hmmm, I wonder what I can sell my M&P15-OR for? :D

I would guess that Midway has a scheduled shipment expected 2-7 and they accepted backorders until everything on that shipment was sold. They may not have any incoming confirmed after that. With the good reputation Midway has, I would assume you will still get your mags if Midway hasn't...

Welcome aboard. I'm new here too but I fortunately timed things pretty well: I bought my first AR-15 (a M&P15) in October and ordered the 15-22 in early December before all heck broke loose. I also ordered a couple of cases of .223 in November.

Me too :) Mine arrived last Monday but I waited until today to use it. Nice :) I'm looking forward to a bit better weather to really use it. Ken

Same here.

To the OP, I feel the same way that you do. Not that I feel others should feel that way, that's their choice, but I'm not one for a bunch of magazines. As for when I go to the range, I personally enjoy taking a break and loading a magazine as I go. If I have everything loaded in advance, I...

OTOH, maybe that is the price they have to pay their supplier, so their question becomes: do we say "no" and have nothing for our customers, or do we go ahead and pay the higher price?

Ineedmoregear.com I paid $15 for S&W mags. Quick shipping. They seem to be a pretty good place. Ken

YES! The real criminals who steal should be protected and we should jail the victims who have something stolen from their house! Geesh.......:mad: Did you really type that someone who has a gun STOLEN FROM THEM should be sent to prison?????:eek: Yes, it wasn't the thief's fault, it was...

Please help me understand why the 15-22 is so much more fun than say a Ruger 10-22. I'm on the fence, debating if I can justify a M&P15-22. Help me understand why the M&P is more enjoyable. Thanks, Ken

Dismantle and clean a 10-22? What a quaint idea! :D (Sorry, I just couldn't resist!) Ken

It's not Dick's, there is a general shortage of .223. Supplies are drying up and prices are going up. Of course, that in itself guarantees that: supplies will dry up (because people are grabbing it while they can) and prices will go up due to demand. We can hope that prices come back down...

Leave it in the box? But that's no fun ;-) Yes, M&Ps are fun. My son got one a couple of months ago and then I got one too. It's gotten me into rifle shooting, something I've never done much of before. I even built a 50 and 100 yard range close to the house. Ken
