Default M&P 40 chamber question.

I am considering purchasing a M&P 2.0 in 40 cal with 5 inch barrel. Does the barrel have a supported chamber? I got rid of my glock because of the Glock Bulge which caused havoc with my reloads but I do miss the .40.
Thank you in advance.

Cartridges fired from M&P pistols do not suffer from Glock Bulge.

It is both a function of chamber support and when the barrel unlocks.

Nether my Gen4 23 nor my 40 Shield have any bulge. Reloads are no problem for either.
