Smith & Wesson M&P15-22 Sport .22 LR AR Rifle, B5 Furniture, M-LOK, 25rd

Description

There's a reason the M&P15-22 has been the go-to rimfire AR for years. It mirrors the layout, controls, and feel of a full-size AR while running cheap, mild .22 LR, which makes it perfect for keeping your fundamentals sharp without burning through centerfire ammo. This Sport model, part number 14180, steps things up with a B5 Systems Bravo adjustable stock and Type 23 grip, the same furniture you'll find on plenty of serious duty rifles. At around 4.6 pounds, it's light enough for new and smaller-framed folks to handle comfortably, and the near-zero recoil means longer, more enjoyable range days for everyone.

Built Like an AR, Feeds Like a Rimfire

The 16.5 inch carbon steel barrel wears a 1/2×28 threaded muzzle with an A2 birdcage flash hider, and the 10 inch slim handguard carries M-LOK slots so lights, hand stops, and rail sections bolt on without pulling anything apart. Up top, a full-length Picatinny rail on the polymer receiver handles red dots and scopes, while the included Magpul MBUS front and rear flip-up sights give you a solid aiming solution from day one. The six-position stock adjusts overall length from 30.5 to 33.8 inches, so it fits shooters of just about any size. Because the platform accepts most standard AR-15 grips, stocks, and accessories, you can set it up to match your centerfire rifle almost exactly.

Why the M&P15-22 Sport Earns Its Keep

The simple blowback action has a well-earned reputation for running reliably on quality high-velocity ammo, and the 25-round magazine keeps you shooting instead of reloading. Whether you're teaching a new shooter the AR platform, running low-cost drills that translate directly to your 5.56 rifle, plinking steel on a lazy afternoon, or chasing small game, this thing just works. It's one of those rifles that ends up getting shot more than anything else in the safe, and with rimfire ammo prices being what they are, that's an easy habit to keep up.
