Forward Assist & Dust Cover/ Sport15

My first advice is to be patient and wait for the Mid-Length MOE. I like the mid-length gas system. It has a longer sight radius & more room to position your weak hand.

I also prefer the specs of the the new mid-length MOE over the other two.

  • 4150 CMV
  • Melonite Treated
  • 1:8 5R progressive rifling

The mag-well is flared. The forward portion of the mag-well is serrated for grip. The finger shelf above the trigger. The enhanced flash hider.

According to the S&W website, the mid-length MOE also comes with the Magpul "Art of The Tactical Carbine" Volume 1 & 2 DVD's. I've watched both volumes, and they are very informative.

The mid-length MOE also has all the Magpul Accessories you would have eventually put on. It's got all the Magpul goodies I put on my 15-Sport.

Now if you really are impatient, then out of the two you were looking at I'd go for the model with the rails.

I just got the Sport model a few days ago...
it came with Magpul sights and 1/8 5R 5.56 on the barrel
Are the newest M&P 15 Sports different than the previous years models?
 
the original sports had a god awful rear sight, the newer ones come with a Magpul which in my opinion is a step up but not a large step.
