I traded it in for a bushmaster today. it's newer and nicer, my dad thought it'd be a good idea.. it's a XM15-E2S.

The M&P's are really nice, as well..

We have one. We go coyote hunting with it. If you miss you have another 29 follow up shots.

This is a friend's of ours... Ours had a jammed empty cartridge in it so I shot his. Ours is all black with no scope.

The M&P is a high quality gun, but they jam more frequently than DPMS, or bushmaster, I would love to have a bushmaster. If you want a cheap AR for hunting, you can get a DPMS 5.56 NATO Sportical, retail $704

I can get the sporticals for 599.. =/

They lack alot of the quality parts that decent AR's have though..

Here are some pictures of mine..

you can get a thing that goes on the end of a barrel like a shotgun choke and while shooting blanks you can shoot golf balls out of it
