    Looking for a good carry round ???

    +1 and if I may add........ Any round that is accurate through "your" gun. I took alot of popular rounds to the range and through my M&P9 the Remington 115 grain JHP and FMJ were the most accurate rounds that I shot. I use the Remington 115 JHP for HD and the FMJ's for practice (FMJ are 50...

    Tactical M&P9FS

    I did the full stipple just to be different as alot of the stipple jobs look the same but not many are fully covered. So it's just to be different and I don't think it looks awfull just not what your used to seeing.

    Tactical M&P9FS

    I have short stubby fingers and can't reach with my thumb past the takedown lever where many others grip their pistols. So to add grip I made a extension as my left thumb rides on the takedown lever area. The Apex DCEAK along with the Pretravel Mod help with this as well. For me these mods have...

Earlier this week I was running some trigger reset drills at the house (and teasing my dogs w/LG removed from the pistol lol) when...

    M&P9 Mag Differences w/Pics

    Here is a neat and easy mod to keep the base plates from sliding off during hard/slam reloads. This was the main reason S&W redesigned the base pads (to a weaker design IMHO) I used an 8-32 buttonhead screw and Drilled/Tapped the spring plate where the catch notch is located. I had to cut down...

    M&P9 Mag Differences w/Pics

    Other than a tilted follower (Gen2 mag) I've had no issues with any mags. I have 6 mags total. 2 are Gen4's with the longer black spring, 1 is a Gen3 with the shorter black spring, and the other 3 are Gen2 with the short silver springs. All springs have the same amount of coils & bends. Just...
