They're decent shooters, and I've enjoyed mine. The worth depends on which model.
I picked up the base optic ready one new from Academy for $850 then did the $100 S&W mail in rebate, so IMO $750 would be a little steep for a used base model since you could have effectively bought a new one for that last spring. The model that came with the quad rail and flip up sights (all Troy with M&P markings) would be a decent find for that price since thats easily over $350 of mods for a base model. Iirc thats the M&P15T.
thanks for the input guys im debating on buying or building, the only problem is i have no idea where to begin on building one, i am very new to building one
ant reccomendAtions on where to start looking for a kit?
or where to begin building, i am a newb. but i think building one would be fun
I'd look over at www.aimsurplus.com for any deals they might be having. They usually have Spike's complete uppers for $499.99 w/ free shipping. You'll need to build yourself a lower receiver as well. Lower are lowers for the most part. Get a stripped lower, DPMS (or any other brand) lower parts kit, a stock (A2 or adjustable)/buffer tube assembly, a backup sight and some mags. That should get you started. Check out AR15.com for tons of pictures and how-to's.
