Thanks for the input guys. I just went and ran 150 rds through it today and it took everything I gave it. I will say I wish the trigger had a more defined reset like my Glock. I shoot trigger reset and would love it if they had the same similar feel. I will say though, that is one...

Thanks for the thoughts mlapaglia. I've got it loaded with gold dots as we speak and am headed out to the range today to give it a run. They are definitely one of my preferred loads. You've got a good point about disabling the safety. Didn't think about that angle. God knows these days...

Yea this will be my primary off duty ccw.

Hi guys, I just picked up my first S&W auto. I've been a 1911 guy forever and carry a Glock 21 for duty but I wanted something different for concealed carry and off duty errand running. I've always liked the looks of the M&P line and am now trying to figure out what I should get to go along...

Hey thanks for the information guys! I really appreciate your help and the pictures. I will say you're not doing ANYTHING to help my restraint though!

Hi Guys, I've got a line on a decent condition 5904 and was wondering what your opinions of these guns are. It seems to be in good condition but the seller stated it has the "69 series hammer". I'm relatively unfamiliar with S&W Autos, is this a good/bad/no biggie issue? Also, does anyone...

Steve, thanks for posting this and welcome from another newbie. I am in the process of looking at the M&P .40c as a back up gun and was wondering the same thing about the night sights myself. As for the conversion stuff, Stormlake was mentioned earlier by another poster. They have a great...

You know, after I posted that I thought to myself "I bet I didn't look hard enough, there has to be a NS option". Thanks for letting me know. Thanks for that link too.

Hey Pact40, that info would be great! Funny you should mention the PPS, I actually handled one today. While incredibly slim, (I was shocked) I'm not a fan of the H&K style mag release. I could never get used to that on the P2000. It was a great gun but I sold it due to the release. I would...

Also, I forgot to ask. You can get night sites on these pistols right? I haven't seen an option for nights on the S&W website or other online brokers I have looked at.

Pberry, that's encouraging that you can fit the M&P in your pocket. I was thinking it may be too small for pocket carry, although I would more than likely carry it elsewhere. Either way it seems like a great weapon and the feel of it was second to none. I shouldn't be allowed in the local gun...

Hi MarshallDodge, thanks for your reply. I can't seem to find one to rent at any of my local ranges. I would love to shoot one before I purchased though I have the feeling I would like it either way. 9mm is definitely an option, we are authorized to carry anything from a .380 up to a .45...

Hi to all. I am a brand new member to the forum but not when it comes to firearms. For years I have primarily been a Sig and 1911 guy. I have been a member of other gun boards before and have always gotten good advice so I thought I would start here. I have just taken a job with the local PD...
