Did you notice any other differences at all? I recently purchased mine and am debating on whether or not if i want to send it back. Has no blue springs but ejects fine. At this point the gun seems fine with few FTF's. I don't have the "25 rd" label on the mag either. Is it worth sending back yet?

thanks! so the one you're looking at has the regular sights but already have a flash hider?..When I 1st bought the 1st gen ones I told myself they should atleast installed a flash hider, so when i heard that they are coming out with one i figure i'm getting one again eventually, then i saw this one + the buis sights , so for me its an improvement becs it cost money to have them threaded and the sights is pricey to and there is no way i will shell out that kinda money, so i thought 510 is decent price NIB..

oh yeah, 510 isnt bad at all considering the sights themselves are usually around 90 bucks. id say you got a good deal. welp, i got the confirmation i need, new productions come with blue springs, i guess its my turn to go get one. : D

i got my 15-22 with the flash hider for 399.00 at a small gun store DTX2XXX is my serial and yes it went back for FTF. Getting it back tomorrow and looking forward to trying it out.

I was looking for a scope that i can use for this 15-22 and i found an old pistol scope and thought "hmm this should work right?" here is the result..

Ignore the 2 or so fliers hahaha, I guess it works..

Its not the prettiest setup but dead on accurate..P.S still getting lucky for not having ant ftf or fte's after almost 400 rounds now..The BCG spring on this is not blue either..

First time poster, long time lurker;

Picked up my M&P 15-22, 4 days ago and so far I've only had 4 FTF's... but I believe it was the ammo; switched to Federal bulk from Walmart and I've put over 500 of those through it without any problems whatsoever.

My serial starts with a DTZ and has the flash hider and blue spring, but doesn't have the folding sights...

Haven't done any mods to mine yet, but I've been looking through the pics here, and I can't wait to get started.

Cheers.

I got mine about a month and a half ago, about 1500 rounds without any problems. But last week I was trying to get rid of some (bad/Rifle no likey) ammo and my bolt come apart. The little spring, retainer, and extractor from the bolt popped off. I was thinking how it would suck to send it back when I noticed it had just popped apart but was not broken. I proceded to put back together and continue using it for another 300 rounds. When I got home I cleaned and inspected it. I think the bad ammo may have got it loose during the many missfeeds. When using the ammo it likes the rifle has been quite good. Is this the problem that alot of people sent these back for? The bolt does not have blue springs but the rifle is new and has the flash hider s/n# DTX36xx. Now that I know my rifle likes a certain ammo I'm hoping this shouldn't happen again. Just lucky I didn't loose the small parts.
(Sorry if in wrong thread)

It looks an awful lot like the Talo Distributors "custom" version with the DTX serial number and all. Mine has multiple failures to feed and I have been waiting for my return label.
