    What's Wrong With This Picture?

    Did you spot it? <Spoiler Alert!!> It's an M&P 1.0 trigger bar in a 2.0 marked bag (notice the loop). I did a 2.0 trigger upgrade on my FS 1.0 a while back. Decided to do it on my 1.0 9C. I have the sear housing ready to go but the trigger bars were OOS. When they finally came in I jumped...

    My Three Sons

    This is not about Steven Douglas (although we are/were both aeronautical engineers). :) Got a chance to take my 3 M&Ps (all 1.0s, all 9mm)) out for a range run. Been a while since they were all out together. My Shield is a no-thumb-safety version I bought during the last months of SSE (I'm in...

    Evolution of My M&P9

    I bought my M&P9 fullsize back in mid 2013 when it was still on roster. Despite the gripes about the trigger I liked it. About a year later I read about "upgrades" such as the H trigger bar and new slide stop. So I purchased them and did the easy upgrade. Not bad at all. About a year after...

    Striker Block Difference (FS 1.0 vs PC)

    I recently received my 5" PC Ported Slide kit for my FS M&P9. At first, I didn't notice the difference in the striker block but certainly felt it during dry fire. A quick visual comparison shows the PC version is rounded vs "chamfered". Here's the required pic. On the left, my original FS...

    Old Gun New Again....

    Well almost new. I've had my FS M&P9 since summer 2013. Shot it quite a bit when it was new but has been resting for a while now due to other purchases and projects. Last week, my Performance Center Ported 5" slide kit arrived!! Woohoo!! I have a PC sear to install and try out before...

    Born Again!!

    I tried to log on yesterday and received a big bad BAN message. Said I was spamming and the ban was permanent. OUCH!! Sent an email to Support claiming my innocence and for someone to please review. We'll they did, realized it was in error and here I am again. That was actually pretty...

    M&P9C Upgrades

    I recently bought the H stamp trigger bar and SHB with the PC sear from G and R Tactical. Just to be clear, these are S&W factory parts, not Apex (not that there's anything wrong with that). My 9C had the S stamped bar and rounded sear. While the trigger was OK for me, I thought I'd jump on...

    M&P 9 Barrel Comparison

    All this talk about barrel swaps got me thinking. So just for giggles, I took the barrels out of my M&Ps so they could pose for a few pics. They include the FS, Compact and Shield. Obviously length will differ so I focused on the chamber end. This shows them on their side. You can see the...

    New Dog in the Kennel!

    Just broke out of jail (those in CA know what this means). Can't get to the range today. Will try during the week.

    S&W Customer Service Delivered

    I called Customer service to see if I could get the pinky extensions for my M&P9C to "convert" some FS 10 round mags to compacts. The rep said sure, took my info and said they'd send me a few (well 3 to be precise). That was about 4 months ago. Well, they came today!! I forgot all about...

    Back on the CA Roster

    A number of Smith revolvers dropped of the CA Roster of "Not Unsafe" handguns earlier this year. Many may already know all of the semis will drop except for specific Shields and SDs (but that's for another forum). However, there will be a new stamp on the frame to denote CA compliance.

    M&P9C Floor Plates

    I've been trying to find the floor plates to "convert" a few FS 9 mags to my 9C. I know they fit but I don't want them sticking out. I do have a few xgrips to use at the range but would prefer a few extra "shorties". The floor plates from Midway have been overdue on backorder since BCE...

    Who needs 9C magazines?

    For the moment, I don't. I have a FS 9 and despite the recent "shortage" ended up with 6 OEM mags and 2 Promags (all 10 rounds). I then bought my 9C and found myself back in the hunt for the unicorns (compact 10 round CA mags). Until I read about the X-grips..... I ordered 2 from Midway...

    Fresh from the Range

    I picked up my 9c today. After a quick stop home for a clean and lube, it was off to the range. After 50 rounds of Freedom Munitions 124 gr reloads and then other 50 in 115 gr, I'm please to say it was flawless. I took it's big brother along too. Here's the family shot. For giggles, I ran...

    See Ya in 10 days.....

    Black Friday sales begin. Since the 9C expires in Jan off the CA Roster, I figure better to jump on it now. Picked it up at Riflegear. Sorry for the poor cell pic but, at least, I can prove it happened. :)

    Hello from SoCal....

    Shout out to all. I'm just an average joe that likes making holes in paper from 7 yards and out. I have a mix of HGs that all have hammers (Sig SP2022, Ruger GP100, RIA 1911, Beretta M9A1). Even one of my long guns has a hammer (Win 94). The day came to get a striker. After carefully...
