    I'm pretty pleased with what I've seen so far.

    I'm glad you like it Jim. I restaked the carrier key (with MOACKS and counterstaked with P-MOACKS!) and restaked the M4 stock nut too. I think I put a Crane O-ring on the extractor spring for you too. If not let me know. It sucks about Shooters burning down. Maybe Quantico will be open on Sunday next weekend for you.

    You da' man! Glad to see you had a day (or at least a morning) off. I just renewed my membership to Quantico so as soon as they open for rifles, we'll be there!

    Howdy all,

    Does anyone know when the cutoff date (or actually, serial number) was when the M&P15T rifles switched to LMT BCG's?

    Thanks in advance.

    No, but it is EASY to spot a LMT BCG. There will be the letter "L" and the letters "MP" stamped on the bolt. The bolt extractor will also have a black insert and a Crane O-Ring installed. The carrier key will be staked normally (not a line across the top).

    I saw the Smith and Wesson reps at an expo this past weekend and some of them are plain dumb. I was talking to one about the new AR that uses the Sundevil parts and he straight out told me that they were making the billet uppers and lowers in house as well as the other parts. The rep incharge came over as a crowd was growing listening to the info and whispered into his ear. He then said your right and walked away. I think if they are representing their products they should know what they are talking about.

    Thanks for the response. I'm about to buy an AR after a long hiatus from owning one. I like the M&P15T's after having handled one. Seem solid. Given the option, based on what I've heard, I'd rather it have the LMT BCG. I'll check it out an my local shop. Thanks.

    I bought the M&PT as in impulse item, it had to go back to Smith because it was FUBAR and they replaced the whole upper, I also complained about the BCG not being properly staked and they put in the LMT BCG. It runs like a champ now. I have used the AR platform for a living for the past 18years but didnt know about all the technical stuff like and have learned lots since being on this forum. I think the M&PT will hold up well but I have got the AR bug and became an LMT dealer(selling at gun shows is a hobby of mine that shuts the wife up so I can buy more toys) and bought a couple of them for my own use and really like them. Now im gonna get a M4 marked colt with the 14.5 barrel plus tax stamp just like I use to use. This AR disease really sucks.

    If your local shop doesn't have any or at a price you like, give me a call. I will be stocking every M&P AR soon.

    What about it was FUBAR? What were the symptoms? It sounds like you had an earlier one if they replaced the BCG with one from LMT. True? Thanks in advance.

    Thanks. Right now they have one on the shelf that I have handled. If it is gone when I go to buy, I might give you a call.
