I know who's home turf I am on and I expect to get a fair amount of bias, but that is exactly why I am posting here. Just over a month ago I purchased a brand new M&P9 Fullsize from a local gun shop. This was my second handgun purchase and it coincided with my submission of my Utah CCP papers...

As a big journalism/literature junkie I cannot tell you how excited I am to see this thread. I hope that you share with us whatever becomes of the piece you're working on. A small touch of background info: I am 21 years old and my Smith & Wesson M&P 9 FS is only the second gun I have ever...

Brand new M&P 9mm FS

Got her out to a local indoor range yesterday. Ran 200 rounds through it with three different brands of FMJ 115gr. No failures of any kind, extractions and the like functioned perfectly. I am not a polished marksman and this weapon is primarily for home and self defense/concealed carry. There...

It also includes that handy speed loader and an extra magazine(3 total)/magazine holder. The holsters are made by Bladetech, a company I have never heard of before. But after inspecting and wearing the holster I have found it to be extremely comfortable and well made. I'd definitely recommend...

After a year and a half with my SW9VE I was looking for something a bit more polished. I just sent in the paperwork for my Utah CCP and I thought that there was no better time to upgrade. After much deliberation and a few weeks of shopping and reading I finally settled on this glorious firearm...

I tried Uncle Mike's before but at your recommendation I headed over to the local Sportsman's Warehouse and found exactly what I was looking for. Thanks a bunch for the recommendation.

Not 100% sure this is where this thread belongs, please relocate if not. Looking very, very seriously at purchasing a full size S&W M&P 9mm tomorrow. I have all of my paperwork filed for my Utah CCP and I am simply waiting to receive the permit in the mail. I want to carry it in a shoulder...

Looked very closely at picking up this exact same setup. Mind if I ask what you paid?

So I have had my gun for over a year. I love it, it has never had a FTF/FTE/FTL or any other issues. I have taken it to the local indoor range many times and I've always been fairly successful at putting the bullets where I want them to go. This past weekend I went out to an outdoor wilderness...

PDL, thank you very much for looking so deeply into things. I have only used factory ammo recommended to me by a reputable local shooting range. I assume the guide rod wear is due to my inexperience at field stripping and re-assembly. But I don't imagine it could affect function? The squarish...

Alright so what do I do exactly?

I have field stripped it. I will include some pictures of it assembled, keeping in mind that it is having this issue setup as is pictured. Does this sear reset also cause the trigger to slightly retract and then go back to it's neutral position? It seems as if that is where the issue in...

I thought of that and thoroughly lubed up the barrel and put a conservative amount on the little metal guides. Still the same issue. I didn't have this problem before last night, though. Could any part be broken or worn? The gun makes no strange noises aside from the metal on metal sound as a...

So I own a SW9VE. I bought it brand new and I've only been out with it a few times. It is my first gun and I love it. On to the problem. Last night I was doing so dry fire exercises to work on my form and muscle memory and to help smooth the trigger. I've done it plenty of times and have never...

Gorgeous gun, you are one lucky fella.

Wow, thanks for the warm welcome everyone. I didn't expect such a response. I'm glad to be a member of the community and I appreciate all of your advice and input. I look forward to learning as much as I can. Thanks again. :cool:

Hello everyone. I just recently purchased my first firearm, a Smith and Wesson SW9VE. I have not ever had any experience with guns and this past weekend I went out to the local mountain range to go shooting with a coworker who invited me along. I fired a few things.. 1 - SW9VE 2 - Browning .22...
