The gun itself features a carbon steel barrel with a corrosion-resistant Armornite® finish, a functioning AR-style rear charging handle, and a shell deflector for added protection against accidental injury and enhanced performance. Popular Magpul MBUS® folding sights mount easily on the gun’s integrated flat-top rail, while the 6-position CAR stock provides a custom fit and feel for improved comfort and control.

The M&P15-22 was designed to be a less expensive alternative for training with an AR-15 style rifle, as the rifle itself is much less expensive than most AR-15s, and the .22 LR ammunition is often much less expensive than the .223 Remington/5.56×45mm NATO. The rifle features a safety and bolt lock that operates just like an AR-15’s. The M&P15-22 can also be an alternative in jurisdictions that restrict magazine capacity for centerfire cartridges.
The M&P15-22’s lower recoil is used as a way to ease new shooters into the sport, allowing them to familiarize themselves with AR-15 controls without the fear of excessive recoil or noise. The disassembly process is very similar to the AR-15 and S&W M&P 15. The lower receiver detaches from the upper with two captured pins. The lower receiver contains a standard M&P15 trigger assembly that is compatible with most AR-15 trigger groups. The upper receiver contains the bolt, barrel, and charging handle. However, the upper and lower receivers of the M&P 15-22 are both deliberately incompatible with standard AR15/M4 uppers and lowers. In 2016, Project Appleseed temporarily banned the use of M&P15-22 rifles at their shooting clinics following a series of out-of-battery discharges, pending a full investigation and correction from Smith & Wesson. This was based on several incidents that occurred in multiple states, including one that injured a shooter on the line and another where multiple cartridges were fired with but one trigger pull.
