Looked at a S&W M&P AR15 last week. The barrel is marked Whisper/BO. We all know the tale about J.D. Jones/SSK and their proprietary 300 Whisper and the AAC SAAMI spec 300BO. This is the first AR type rifle I have seen marked with both cartridges. Haven't seen the box S&W box this rifle came in. Looking forward to seeing it..

What is receiver marked? Wonder if the barrel is original.

New gun... S&W M&P... No caliber marking on the lower. The Rifle manager says they have a few. One of them will be mine. Looking forward to seeing the original box..

Look closely at the barrel, it will be marked with caliber and twist rate if their 5.56 offerings are anything to judge by.
The stampings can be hard to see because of the black oxide finish and my d@mn old eyes.....sigh.

The barrel is clearly marked Whisper and BO with twist rate too.
