The Smith & Wesson M&P15-22 Sport .22LR rifle provides a lightweight, adaptable AR-platform for fundamental rifle skill development and recreational shooting. Its design replicates the AR-15 manual of arms, facilitating consistent handling and control manipulation for effective training and practice.
Key Features
Construction & Materials
The M&P15-22 Sport is engineered with durable polymer upper and lower receivers, contributing to its minimal overall weight. This design characteristic ensures comfortable handling during extended range sessions and mitigates user fatigue. The rifle incorporates a 16.5-inch carbon steel barrel, which is precision-machined and typically threaded for the integration of various muzzle devices.
Ergonomics & Customization
An M-LOK handguard system is standard, providing robust and secure attachment points for tactical accessories such as lights, lasers, and bipods. The adjustable stock allows for user-specific length of pull optimization, enhancing shooting posture and control. Furthermore, the rifle maintains compatibility with a wide array of AR-15 pattern grips, stocks, and trigger components, offering substantial modularity for user adaptation and system enhancement.
Application & Performance
Chambered in .22LR, this platform delivers exceptionally low recoil, rendering it highly suitable for new shooters, extended practice sessions, and cost-efficient training. It serves as an effective tool for establishing and refining fundamental rifle marksmanship and supporting the development of precision shooting skills. The integrated Picatinny rail on the upper receiver enables direct mounting of tactical optics. When paired with appropriate ammunition, the M&P15-22 Sport is also an effective tool for small game hunting.
