    SW M&P 15 Sport Mods.

    I will be getting a Smith and Wesson M&P 15 Sport early next year. I am excited to get my own AR-15 and get started with this entry level weapon.

    So on lucky gunner I just bought 1,000 rounds of 9mm (blazer brass) for about $220, delivered. That's $0.22 per round!

    Two XD(m) Compacts... $70 difference, WHY?!

    This is driving me nuts... what is the difference between these two, they appear to be identical! Is this a "last years model" situation? Different item numbers (Yes I am aware these aren't the best prices) Springfield XD(M) Compact 3.8 Handgun $629.99...
