This is not a sale posting

So, what are the odds someone would be able to get a S&W M&P 10, 2 S&W M&P 15 consecutive serial numbers, and 1 S&W M&P 15-22 all at once? What do you think they would cost?

What do you know that everybody else doesn't? Inquiring minds want to know.

I would say slim to none.

Not sure what the point is. Are you thinking of buying this collection? I would say the odds are pretty good that you could find that combo at a fairly large gun shop. I personally would not pay more for consecutive numbered M&P 15s. I think that plays more when considering collectable firearms. Really I would be expecting a discount for purchasing 4 firearms.

None are what anyone would call collector guns so.... just a fun coincidence. Imho.

I like the way you think

I wouldn't waste my money on junk. Invest in a scar or larue or noveske.

So, whats the point of this? Is it just for fun, or are you buying these. Like mentioned, I wouldnt pay extra for it but would hope to get a discount for buying 4 guns.

I guess I wouldnt say that S&W is top tear stuff anymore but its far from ''Junk" I know FAR more people that own more S&W's than all three of the overpriced big names combined that you mentioned...just sayin

I would say the odds of someone in your position scoring all of them in one order are better than the odds of me (the end consumer) doing the same thing.

With my luck, never would even be offered it. If the price is right and like others said getting a discount for a multiple gun purchase and I had the cash on hand I'd do it. They aren't guns I'd enter into competitions with, but you'll get a lot of usage and good time at the range with them. Ammo would be the bigger concern.

I don't think anyone called what are now collector guns 'collector guns' when they were first sold. I'm the furthest thing from an expert there is, but if you throw them all in a safe for 20 years, I would think they would have more value sold as a collection than they would if they weren't consecutive.

Yeah I guess Junk was too strong of a word. Just not something I would want to buy for a collection to gain value and be sought after down the road
