    MP Shield 45 - slide not locking

    ^^^^ Assuming you are right handed, I would suggest: - mag out, pistol clear, safe - overhand grip on the slide with left hand, use rearward force - oppose that rearward force with right hand on the grip, pushing frame forward - while maintaining opposing forces, use your right hand thumb to...

    Questions about a used M&P40

    Barrel looks typical. Hard to determine if it is rust, but as it was already stated, pitting is your concern. I am definitely one that would go over a used pistol with a magnifying glass-- that is why I abstain from purchasing them :D If it is going bang, enjoy it!

    Daughter's Pistol

    In terms of the racking, my lady is a lean 5'7 and was initially unable to rack a slide, overhand grip and stressing opposing forces took care of that-- good across the board

    Daughter's Pistol

    Nothing says family time like range time. The P365 is such a niche gun, and IMO, overpriced. That is not to say I wouldn't mind having one, but the EZ covers a bit more in a general sense, for a more appropriate price point. J frame to EZ may be an adjustment, congrats on the pickup!

    Shield trigger will not reset. Please help

    I use snap-caps on all firearms (even strikers) when dry-firing.. This is the one instance I could care less what the manufacturer says about it being "okay", particularly when a package of snap caps is around $10. It is a good skill to know how to disassemble your tool, getting to the...

    Shield trigger will not reset. Please help

    Total shot in the dark, from the sounds of you dry-firing then noticing something off, you might want to disassemble your striker assembly in the slide and peek around..

    New M&P 2.0, what a deal!!

    That is a phenomenal price OTD, considering the extra mag, night sights, and case. I would not pass on that just due to the thumb safety, and contact S&W as well for the plugs. Great pickup on a great shooter. Y'all carry OWB in Indy huh?

    New M2.0 Compact in .40 S&W

    I think the 3.6 fills a nice carry niche.. I know people say barrel length doesn't matter, but people also say other lengths don't matter Check the chart: Smith & Wesson M&P 9 M2.0 3.6" Compact vs M&P 9 M2.0 4.0" Compact size comparison | Handgun Hero
