Design details[]
The M&P10 series of rifles is based on the AR-10. Smith & Wesson offers the M&P10 semi-automatic rifles in a variety of configurations tailored to specific shooting applications and styles. The standard model has a six-position collapsible stock, 4140 steel barrel, 7075 T6 aluminum receiver and a hard-coat black anodized finish.
Variants[]
In 2013, the M&P10 line was expanded to include the .308 Winchester calibre.[2] Unveiled at 2013 SHOT Show, the rifle is available in several variants; the M&P10 (CA Compliant), M&P10 (Compliant), and the M&P10 CAMO. All are chambered in .308 Winchester.
- M&P10 CA Compliant: features a California Bullet Button, making it compliant for sale to civilians in California.[3]
- M&P10 Compliant: features a fixed extended stock and non-threaded barrel, making it compliant for sale to civilians in Maryland, New Jersey, and New York. It was available in Massachusetts until the Attorney General, Maura Healy, issued a unilateral ban of it and all AR type rifles.[4]
- M&P10 CAMO: features a Magpul Original Equipment rifle stock and hunter's camouflage finish on the receiver, handguard, and pistol grip.[5]
