Would you trade? I have a Taurus M85 .38 Special +P 38 Special Ultra Light, 2" Barrel, (Stainless Steel) that I would trade for the Bodyguard 380. My revolver has had about 50 rounds through her and cleaned well after firing. Comes with custom leather holster and extra ammo. Please let me...

One in the Pipe From 21' a person with a knife can suddenly leap forward and charge you. A number of test have found a peace office cannot draw his weapon and fire in the time it takes for the bad guy to stab the officer. Do I carry with one in the chamber? Absolutley!!!! If you are new to...

I own both the FS and C in 40 cal. Keep in mind if you have to use your weapon it'll probably be within a few feet so accuracy should not be a factor. The C conceals well using the Blackhawk Serpa Conceal Carry holster. I'm 5'10" and 260. I'm going to order the spacers for the holster to...

I own 2 M&P 40's, full size and compact. I use both as duty weapons and am totally happy with my selection. I carry the full size for work each day and the compact as backup. I must admit that I was a bit skeptable at first about the grip size for the "C" but qualified with both weapons just...

Thumb Safety I "had" a M&P 40 w/thumb safety and used it for qual's for my agency but mid-way through the quals I removed the safety. As many will tell you using the thumb safety takes training above and beyond drawing and shooting. For me I kept hitting the thumb safety as I drew my weapon...

Has anyone used the guide rod laser in the M&P and if so what are your thoughts/feedback? I have and use a 40 cal full-size for my duty weapon. Much thanks for your input.

If anyone has a M&P 40C without manual safety I would consider a trade. Spanky

I've been shooting a full size M&P 40 that holds 15 in the mag and 1 in the chamber. With a fully loaded magazine I have had numerous mag drops. One firearm instructor said the Glock is famous for this when you fill the mag to it's max. His suggestion was to load one bullet less than full and...

Meet the M&P from Smith & Wesson. Reinforced polymer chassis, superior ergonomics, ambidextrous controls, proven safety features. The new standard in reliability when your job is to serve and protect and your life is on the line. In the design of the M&P, we considered the needs of military...

During qualifications at the Police Academy the Range Master asked me and a fellow officer if he could shoot one of our M&P 40's. Everyone else was using Glocks, including the Range Master. He had picked up my M&P during one classroom setting and went into the adjoining room and I could hear...

Bump, price reduced. Take another look.

Thanks Rangel. I've actually watched the video on the 45 safety removal. In fact I watched that in order to take mine out. Unfortunately neither video answers my question about putting in the plugs I got from S&W. Again thanks.

I have the 40 M&P and think I'll put in the Lasermax guide spring laser. Reason is self alignment and no need to adjust.

I removed the manual safety from my M&P and have received the "plugs" from S&W to place into the open holes where the safety came out. I received part #'s 39246 (LF) and 39247 (RT). Here's my issue. The parts don't look the same and what's marked 39246 (LF) actually fits on the right side...

Very nice condition with less than 150 rounds shot through this handgun. Great carry gun. I'm the original owner and have the original box and paperwork. Serial Number is THE7407. $400 and you pay shipping to your FFL. Some pics after I cleaned her up today. Thanks, Spanky45...
