I didn't read if the 2.0 9mm barrel locks up differently than the original version.It should be like the Apex barrel lock up. That's the only reason I'd be interested.
 
So I guess the next question is when will they hit the streets and what will the cost be?
 
Here the advertisement from my LGS

$449

$449, I'd get one in a heartbeat. The poly frame has a full steel? insert making the 2.0 stiff the whole length. S&W has done a good job on the updated model.
 
Eh. I have no interest in the M&P. And being a new gun ill spend my $449 somewhere else and let others do the beta testing.

Also, reading on another forum, Apex said their accuracy is about the same as the M&P 1.0

The one thing I was hoping for was an ambidextrous mag release.....maybe on M&P 2.2......:D

On her spokesperson video, Julie Golob says the mag release is ambi, which is different than reversible. I have not seen a good picture of the left side of the gun. Also, the mag release is now metal rather than polymer, perhaps adding to the supposition it is ambi.
EDIT: NOT AMBI--reversible as the original is.

I'm not sure what I think of it. I like the way it looks, but it doesn't look all that different from the old one. I'm a big fan of S&W. I love my Sport II, and I would like to add an SDVE to the collection someday. I shot an SD9VE and thought it was pretty good for the price. I'm really curious what the trigger is like on the M2.0. As of right now, though, I think I'm more of an XD fan. I got an XD Mod.2 a little over a month ago. I love the way it shoots. It's got a good trigger. I think I prefer the looks of the XD's over the M&P's, too. I know I'm probably in the minority saying that about the XD, but I was a bit underwhelmed when the M2.0 was revealed. I hope it turns out to be a great update.
 
It is in FDE, which isn't my preference but haven't been able to find a 9mm full size 5" M2.0 available.

I'm not seeing the 5" in anything but FDE and w/thumb safety. I'd like to have the longer barrel for sight radius, but not a fan of FDE and it seems like the safety might be in the way for me. Looking back, it doesn't seem like the 5", blue, no safety has ever been an option. Even in 1.0.
 
New button?

I like the looks of their desert sand color. Dumb question time though - what is the button located between and takedown lever and the slide stop? I have read a couple of blurbs on-line and no one has mentioned this. I don't think the original M&P's had the button ...
