I have the MP15 in .556.
Does Sw make a conversion upper to 300 blackout!
If not, can you recommend a compatible kit.
TIA

Even if branded S&W it's likely the upper would be manufactured by another company. There are boatloads of 300 BLK uppers out there to choose from, depends on how much $$$ you want to spend. And configuration.
Daniel Defense, Noveske make higher end. PSA, Bear Creek Arsenal, DelTon, Davidson Defense make economy types. I use my ARs for fun only, nothing serious and tend to go economy.
Yes of course. Economy for fun suppressed at the range. I was reading. The purpose of the 300aac was for AR pistol i think anyway. I saw these pistol kits on grabagun for about 450$ they ship them without an FFL?But if i could safely convert my AR to 300blk and shoot suppressed at the range, how fun is that!i was looking at a bolt rifle in 300blk.

A pistol kit can ship directly to you IF it does not include the lower receiver. You will need to purchase that through a FFL. Form 4’s for individuals are getting approved within days lately. The only one I bought took six months and three days, but it was a Trust.
Bolt guns eat ammo at a much slower rate for sure.

The previous post made reference, if you buy an AR upper with fewer than 16" bbl you'll need to go the NFA SBR route. Construction possession applies federally re SBR, meaning that having the pistol upper and only a long gun receiver, even with the respective parts not attached, is a violation of law.
Swapping barrels on your AR is pretty simple, requires a few tools to disassemble and reassemble. If it's a one time deal, OK. You can probably salvage all the original parts and do just a barrel swap. But FWIW, I'd just get a 300 BLK upper on the cheap.

I spent a while looking at these and there are so many choices…parkerized, different sized gas blocks…and so on.Then I saw this! AM-15 10.5 PISTOL 300 BLK RED DOT COMBO
I apologize I think I’ve gotten off way into the weeds on this post. Short barrel rifle and A.R. pistols are just off-topic. Get me going right?! I think I’ll stay with the complete upper research and see if I can get one. That’ll just work and fit.
Yeah, the SBR and AR pistol route is way too controversial right now and I’ve been down the NFA route. Don’t wanna mess with another NFA item. I don’t want firearms violation to ruin our love of firearms.

$819.00 plus tax/shipping/FFL fee is a lot of money for an entry level firearm and optic.
AR’s are not so difficult to assemble. Larry Potterfield of Midway USA has a few excellent instructional videos on YouTube to guide you through the process. I have assembled several AR’s; and I have practically zero patience.
