I used to highly recommend the M&P 15 Sport, until they changed the barrel. The melonite treated 1:8 twist with 5R rifling is a great barrel. Now they have changed to a melonite treated 1:9 twist, standard rifling, due to being easier to produce. At the same time, they raised the MSRP by $100. It probably is still a great firearm, but it just does not represent the value that it once did, IMO.
