Very serious actually. Four o the guys I shoot with have Norinco's and all of them love them. One of the guys is quite possibly the worst gun owner I know cleaning. He is of the once a year wether it needs it or not types. And he shoots nothing but milsurp and the gun runs flawlessly. That combined with the fact that the sport is S&W's entry level gun and may suffer from the "make it cheap" to hook new customers mentality. Not sure if that's the case but figure I should ask?

http://www.thetruthaboutguns.com/201...on-mp15-sport/Did nastiness get in to the action? Ohh yeah it did. I made sure of that by peppering the rifle with a few small handfuls of Arizona high desert when the Smith and Wesson folks weren’t watching. By the end of the week I had one gritty feeling charging handle, one rough trigger, and one dirty as all-heck action. I was also holding a rifle that continued to function without a single hiccup.

It’s taken Smith a while to get here, but it looks like they’ve finally brought the same no-nonsense quality and functionality to the AR world that made their revolvers so justifiably famous.
"The S&W M&P15 Sport might be remembered as the gun that challenged the pricing structure of the entire industry. I've seen no others deliver its performance and quality at this price point."- Nutnfancy
Nutnfancy does excellent reviews, I would highly recommend that everyone interested in this rifle check it out on youtube

Your previous post was much more informative than your off hand remarks.
Hyundai Sonatas are "cheap" but it hasn't stopped them from being named car of the year. Honda Civics are cheap but have been the number one in CSI for almost two decades!! BMW's are considered by many to be among some of the best vehicles on the market but having worked for them in the mid 90's I can tell you that their "entry level" 3 series cars were complete garbage!! With the likes of the accord and Camry wiping the floor with them in every category! Except price!!

Except were talking about nearly identical designs.....
Imagine 2 companies made the exact same car. One was Chinese and one was American made. The difference in price is 500 dollars. The American made one has a nice paint job and is made out of better materials. The Chinese one is made out of different, less desirable, materials and needs to be repainted from the factory. They both run the same if you get a good one but the Chinese ones are hit and miss.
Which do you buy!?
