I love my M&P sport, but one thing about it always bugged me. I realize I have no use for a FA or dust cover at a range, but I was missing the "look"

So I bought an upper, the proper tools and will be swapping it out this weekend.

Spikes tactical upper fits very well and quality might even be better that the s&w upper

Mostly disassembled. Just need access to vice this weekend to remove barrel. I was a little intimidated by the FSBs taper pins, but they came right out no problem. Not sure if the A2 is going back on. Might go with a folding front sight as I hate how the a2 is in my field of view with my red dot

I realize this is money spent on something not needed, but I love the look.

What will I do with the original upper? Prob build another upper assembly in a different caliber. Maybe .300 BLK or 6.5 Grendel. I haven't decided

if you decide to not end up using that sport upper, let me know. I'd be glade to buy it off you.
 
Just never had the itch for one of these.
 
I did. Just always looked like sonething was missing.

Lookin' good!

Still Waiting on a handguard to finish up my weekend project. Was your FA pin as big of a pain in the a** to get in as mine was for me?
 
Yup! It was a PITA!

I managed to get it started, then figured out I could use a pair of rubber jawed channel locks to press the pin in. Worked like a charm. But tapping the pin was a PITA!

It was harder then getting the FSB pins out!

Thanks but think I'm gonna build a 9mm upper with it. No FA or dust door typically used with those builds
