Hot deals from...
- ✓Forged, integral trigger guard
- ✓Reliability
- ✗Limited rail space
- ✗Furniture is lacking
Editor’s Note: The S&W M&P Sport II was long considered the best budget starter AR-15, but those days are well behind us. These are well-built and reliable guns, but a lack of updates to the furniture, barrel twist rates, and gas system length has led to other guns in the same price bracket taking the place of the Sport II.

FINAL VERDICT
"If you’re looking for a functional, well made, reliable rifle that will leave enough cash in your account for lots of ammo and a sling — the M&P Sport II is absolutely a rifle you should consider. Ergonomics, accuracy, and reliability are good for the price and you can always upgrade." - Sean Curtis
