Smith & Wesson M&P4 Rifles Now Available for Military & LE

Smith & Wesson has announced the M&P4 rifle series is now available for the Military and Law Enforcement professional market. A leader in firearm manufacturing and design, the Maryville, TN company promises the M&P4 is engineered with excellence across various applications and conditions, built for reliability and versatility in multiple configurations. Intended to perform in a broad range of professional applications, M&P4 rifles are easy to customize for the individual user and mission parameters while built to last under unforgiving conditions.

The M&P4 rifles feature select-fire capability and are available in popular barrel lengths of 11.5 or 14.5 inches. They are fitted with six-position receiver extensions and adjustable stocks from the factory with Smith & Wesson advertising effective ranges of 300 to 600 meters, depending on the model, which is pretty standard fare for the 5.56.

The upper and lower receivers or the M&P4 are forged 7075 aluminum with a black anodized finish. Bores and chambers are chrome-lined for longevity and corrosion resistance. Additional standard features include hinged trigger guards, chromed firing pins, and mil-spec bolt carriers.

“Smith & Wesson is proud to expand our world-renowned family of M&P rifles to include military-grade, select-fire variants as we continue to pursue our global strategy of growing the government business channel. The new M&P4 product family meets or exceeds our professional customers’ needs and is commensurate with their expectations of our iconic and globally recognized brand,” said Matthew Fehmel, Senior Director of Global Professional & International Sales.

I’m a fan of no-frills rugged AR15s that keep things simple and reliable, something Smith & Wesson has always been great at with the M&P15 series and is essential for military and LE weapons. There isn’t a lot out there now about the new M&P4, but it seems to me like a continuation of that product we all know and love but in a select fire model for law enforcement and the military. I know, I know. I think all law-abiding citizens should have access to giggle switches too.
