    Been shooting my M&P15 for a while, and I know a lot of people say the trigger is not that great, but I think it’s perfect. Good break, good reset, and easy to pull. For safety, you want a trigger that’s too light. I think it’s a perfect trigger especially once you get used to it.



  5. Sustronaut on November 19, 2021 at 6:35 pm

    I use bravo company single stage system, for a long time now. Very reliable and effective



  6. Tiger Gray on November 19, 2021 at 6:38 pm

    In California that cost $999.99 or above which is a ripped off



  7. BradleyBassin on November 19, 2021 at 6:38 pm

  13. powdered buns on November 19, 2021 at 6:47 pm

    Your optic should be mounted furthest forward on the receiver as possible to maintain zero move it forward until it’s right behind the Delta ring



  14. Vinny B. on November 19, 2021 at 6:48 pm

    Never had a trigger pin problem on the 2 M&P Sports that I own. However I eventually replaced both of them with ALG’s ACT trigger.



  15. Vin on November 19, 2021 at 6:48 pm

    My pockets stay on entry level. Entry level sedan, fire stick, shield, ironically I’m not in an entry level job.



  16. Albert Brooks on November 19, 2021 at 6:48 pm

    Great content! Thanks.



  21. bryan boru on November 19, 2021 at 6:54 pm

    Just bought my M&P15 sport 2 for $799. Also bought a CMMG .22lr conversion kit to save money. Woooo those prices for 5.56/.223! Bought 100 round of PCM x-tac, after shipping was $94. Probably won’t be shooting with them.



  22. Brent Brown on November 19, 2021 at 6:55 pm

    Anyone had any issues with steel case through the M&P sport II?



  23. Michael X on November 19, 2021 at 6:56 pm

    Get a PSA AK47!



  24. Tiffany Cerna on November 19, 2021 at 6:58 pm

    Where did you find it for less than $795?



  25. nomercy on November 19, 2021 at 6:59 pm

    looks good. what kind of silencer could this use?



  26. Kyle S on November 19, 2021 at 7:02 pm

    Any recommendations on hand guards?



  27. I Am Nightmare on November 19, 2021 at 7:02 pm

    The hammer pin backs out due to the J shaped retainer that runs up the middle of the hammer. They break from factory suppliers and dont get caught before final assembly. Either order a new Hammer Retainer, or get a new Hammer. For the trigger, make sure the Hammer Spring Legs are engaging in the Trigger Pin Slots near the edge. That will hold them.



  28. Venomxjjb on November 19, 2021 at 7:03 pm

    Anti walk pins. done and done.



  29. German Vanegas on November 19, 2021 at 7:03 pm

    Excellent assessment / review πŸ‘πŸΌπŸ‘πŸΌπŸ‘πŸΌπŸ‘πŸΌπŸ‘πŸΌ The S&W MP 15 Sport 2 is truly a great rifle, a workhorse, with total reliability and excellent combat accuracy, at an affordable fair price for us, working middle class gun owners. Mine came from the factory with the optic from Crimson Trace. Needless to say, I am pleased with mine πŸ’ͺπŸΌπŸ˜ŽπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡²

    Strawberries are an approved method of measurement



  31. Adam Berendt on November 19, 2021 at 7:05 pm

    I went to the local gun shop today and they had one that was nice used for 599. I grabbed it immediately.

    Yessir



  49. J Michael Martin on November 19, 2021 at 7:25 pm

    Regarding the "walking" rollpins: bought a used Walther PPS a few years back that had the same problem. I put a tiny drop of super glue on the offending pins– problem solved.

    I wouldn’t hesitate to do that on an AR/M4 either… fwiw



  50. Reebo2k on November 19, 2021 at 7:27 pm

    This or the Ruger AR556?
