I like the look of it. I also like the fact that they've done away with the beavertail. I wonder how long until they make it up here to Canuckistan. I just picked up a second M&P, a .40 to go with my 9, so I'm okay with a bit of a wait until they arrive.

Ha ha ha...I take it you have the misfortune of being familiar with Trudeau 1.0?

Well...thanks for the input gents...I had an interesting day. A good day with the M&P; no damage done (woo-hoo!), followed by a cold beverage and some indulgence in schadenfreude over the vacuous comments regarding Castro's death by my equally vacuous prime minister, Trudeau the...

The take down lever rotating slightly was exactly the issue. Where would I find the notch to which you refer?

Most here are probably already familiar with it, but I just came across it myself. It involves pulling the trigger as opposed to lowering the sear deactivation lever as per the manual.

Ahh...thank you kind sir.

Ha ha...No hammers were harmed in the assumption that a little more force was needed! Yeah, I knew that, but the lights didn't come on until I realized what I had done. The empty gun "fires", resets and locks open on an empty mag as always. And, much to my relief, no miscellaneous parts fell...

So, I stumbled across the alternate method to disassemble an M&P and decided to give it a whirl. Everything seemed to go okay until I tried to put the slide back on and it seemed to get "stuck". I did it a couple of times and pushed through forcibly and got the slide back on each time and then...

Here's my daughter with mine. Pretty much stock except for,the optic. However, she loves it! http://i296.photobucket.com/albums/mm166/feldgrau_01/2014-06/C7CC813E-7107-404E-B472-BB5A8AD3A209_zpsjlulj4vi.mp4

As far as I can tell, the grips are the smaller, K-frame type found on many a Model 10, and it does indeed wear a steel cylinder. The seller has stated that it has had a good number of mild loads through it, so I am assuming that it has no frame crack. Unfortunately he lives 3 time zones over...

Ah, okay, thanks. I will have to ask the seller to check that for me.

Okay, this is something I was wondering about. My current pet load for .38spl is 3.5gr of Titegroup behind a 158 LSWC. I can't recall if it's considered a +P load or not...I'll have to check my manual again. Another question, as a 12-2, it has a steel cylinder, does it not? I'm thinking of...

In looking around on a Canadian forum, I have come across a 2" 12-2, that has caught my eye. I'm wondering what folks here can tell me about this particular wheel gun. Thanks.

Yeah! I concur!

It's been a long cold winter up here and it was cold enough to discourage range use. I did manage to get my nephew out to shoot my new(ish) Model 15 a couple of weeks ago...yeah, it was cold...
