Question M&P 2.0 Grip panel Question/Issue?

Question?

Wondering if anybody else has noticed this?

On my 2.0 have noticed when I put the small grip on and I squeeze the grip the small backstrap will move back and forth and I can take a finger put on front of grip and with my thumb I can push the small backstarp in about 1/16"!

Find this annoying and with the small strap the T shaped retainer is in grip a little loose, but the other 3 straps fit quite tight and the retainer is also tight and harder to turn.

So what I did was put small piece of electric tape around bottom of the T retainer but same issue so then I put another piece above the 1st piece and now all is well and no movement in small grip and the retainer also fit in tight even with the small grip! weird, think in my small strap the holes where T retainer goes in are to small on the small strap!

The small back strap is "looser" the others has more play where the back strap holding pin fits and locks in hence more sloppy fit .

I hadn’t tried the small on my new M&P 2.0 so after reading your thread here I thought I should try it. My small fits snugly with no side to side play & it doesn’t move or displace when squeezed.

Thumbs up

Really strange all fit perfect except the small which can be squeezed in and pops back about 1/16" and just got annoying and with small strap the T bar fit so sloppy I thought it may come out.

But 2 small pieces of electric tape which now cover the T bar and holds grip and T bar tight!

It does sound like a "Non-Issue" but to me was annoying having a loose grip .
