The stocks are adjustable, just pinned position. Takes two minutes to remove the pin.

Thanks, I didn't know that. Did S&W do that for any states with laws against adjustable stocks?

Yikes I feel better about ours. Our firearm markup is roughly 27x the USA price, but my 15-22 cost me R8000 wich is roughly $550.Buy that sport here in England and it will set you back .........
$830..........one of my 15-22's owes me around $3K
This is what we have to put up with if we want to enjoy
this brilliant little rifle.

They now sell locally for R15000 2nd hand, which is $1000+

Ouch! I'd start throwing some tea into the harbor.
I've seen those but that price only applies to those odd colored models. My wife is not a fan.
That's a little over $400 out the door. That looks to be about the best that can be found.
Thanks to all that have commented and advised.
Today we went to the gun show in Melbourne Fl. in search of sku# 10208 (msrp $449 ) that my wife wanted so badly. As I posted earlier an out the door price of $400 was my goal. That would equal an internet price of about $360 plus shipping plus FFL.
As any of you who are married know, the only predictable thing about women is that they are unpredictable. After searching the 200 or so tables at the show she choses her rifle. Not sku# 10208 that she was determined to get, but sku# 10213. Not $449 msrp but $499 msrp. This model is the Magpul MOE SL. So at this point all the help that you responders have given me no longer applies. As I'm talking to the vendor I keep stalling as I'm trying to do the math in my head and trying to decide if I'm getting a good deal or not.
If out the door of $400 on a $449 msrp rifle is good then $450 out the door on a $499 msrp rifle should be ok. As I said, I kept stalling because my wife's change of plan caught me completely by surprise. This worked out to my benefit because the vendor kept sweetening the deal. Final out the door (including tax ) was $430 plus an extra factory magazine. This would equate to an internet price for a $499 rifle of about $380 - $390. I think I did ok.
Thanks to all. Wife is happy so I'm happy too.

I paid $469 for mine 3 yrs. ago from our local gun store...great firearm, 15,000 rounds or so downrange, and I can count on 1 hand the amount off ftf's....which I contribute to me not loading the mag correctly..
She will love the gun....get prepared to start buying ammo!

Grab-A-Gun has them for $355 this morning. Shipping is reasonable and service is great too. Even with my LE discount Buds was more at $362.
I looked at the invoice from Bud's gunshop MOE SL model (the one you ended up getting) shipped to the Merritt Island FFL. After all the transfer and Background check fees it came to $430. For that you got an extra magazine, instant gratification and supported a LGS somewhere.
Looks like you did good.
