S&W M&P15 MOE
In February S&W will launch two new M&P15 (AR-15) models. The M&P15 MOE (Magpul Original Equipment) features, as the name suggests, as many Magpul accessories as they could fit on the rifle.

Overall I think this is a compelling package. Instead of buying and AR-15, only to spend more on Magpul accessories you can just get an M&P15 MOE.
No word on pricing.

I love love love mine. I've owned mine now since 01-2009 and I've sent more than 2,000 rounds down range. Added an AAC Brakeout to it and it's works just great http://youtu.be/kmJtB-GkV6w if you wanna take a look! Waiting for the Trijicon SRS to release and I'll finally have my optic.
I have the Dark Earth model and I think it's a great gun. I bought it from Shoot Straight for 1050.00 plus tax. I put about 500 rounds through it. The sites work excellent at short range. I did have jamming but it was due to my fault. I was pulling the bolt back and letting it back in gently which made it jam. When you pull it back you have to let it go and slam into position. I put a UTG 3-12 44mm scope and got it to bulls-eye at 200 yards. The scope was good enough to see the target but not the bullet holes. I had to walk to the target 2 times to make my adjustments before I dialed it in. I recommend a more powerful scope for long range. Overall I'm very happy with the gun and scope and would highly recommend this weapon. It looks great and it's performance is flawless.
