Default M&P 15-22 MOE

Just wanted to take a minute to say thanks to all of you active members of this forum. I have been lurking the forum for a few months trying to decide if I wanted to join the MP 15-22 owners club. All of your posted information really helped me make an informed purchase. I was t the West Palm Beach Gun show yesterday and picked up the M&P 15-22 MOE. Paid $525.00. It did come with one of the new mags. I also picked up an extra mag for $20.99 (new version) and about 300 rounds off CCI.

There were 2 vendors at the show that had the MOE versions. As I was walking through the show I was stopped a few times from people asking me where I picked up the rifle and was told the 15-22's are great rifles.

Needless to say I can't wait to take it to the range. I will be heading out this morning and will come back to this thread with a range report and maybe a few pics.

Thanks again.

Matt

I had a chance to get this rifle out to the range this weekend. Shot about 200 rounds with no FTE or FTF's. I used Remington Vipers and Federal Bulk. I zeroed the scope at 25 yards just to gt on paper and have a bit of fun. This weekend I will go to Markham Park and see what this rifle can do at 50 and 100 yards.

Swamper1, if you are not in love with the 15/22 you will be. have had mine to the range 3 times. have had only 2 dnf's, no jams or stovepipes. and thats using cheap ammo. the little fun gun is accurate out to 75 yds, and i plan to sight in at 100 next trip to the range. have probably fired 700-1,000 so far.
happy shooting

I am looking at buying a MOE version. Where is the blue spring at and what does it do better?

Thanks Swamper! Not to be a bother, but what is the differences in the old and new magazine style. I will be putting money down on a MOE version Monday and want to make sure I am getting the newest items. Thanks again.

Late magazines have ".22LR, 25 rounds" (or words to that effect) on them. Earlier only the caliber

Just flip the 1st aperture down to expose the bigger aperture hole.
