I know it's not the same gun, but Gander Mountain has the Smith & Wesson MP15 Sport Semi-Auto Rifle on sale this week. You can see the ad here ->Smith & Wesson MP15 Sport Semi-Auto Rifle - Gander Mountain
Just thought you might like to know.
Thanks for the heads up on the sale. My local dealer had the same price on the Sport this weekend. I already ordered my optics ready version though...
