I just filled out the paperwork for a like new M&P 9c with the carbon fiber finish. I know it's not everyone's cup of tea, but it looked a lot better in person than in photos or video. It's more subdued and really striking looking. Of course, since I'm in Maryland, I have to wait until I am cleared to purchase. As soon as I pick it up, I will try to post pics. BTW, the last time I bought a S&W 9mm, it was a NIB model 39 back in 1980. Why did I ever sell that?
