Smith & Wesson rollouts are ALWAYS based on making as much money as possible. You don't release a Shield with no manual safety until you have sold enough of the Shields with safeties. Because some people would never have purchased a second Shield otherwise. You don't release a Bodyguard with no laser until you have sold enough of the model with the laser. Same reason. This is basic economics 101. We will eventually see M&P M2.0 compacts, CORE, Ported, 9mm Shields, etc., etc. but not until they will maximize their profits from doing so. Which is good because it keeps them in business and keeps my stocks in the SWHC profitable. Also since most of the "improvements" are cosmetic or easily made by the end user, there is no reason to get a 2.0 other than how it looks. And it looks cool!
