My FS has been back 5 times. Trip 5 resulted is some noticeable improvement, but it's still a relatively large group at 25 yards. Then I cracked the code on this thing and it now shoots sub 1/2" groups at all distances. (They are 1-shot groups) For now I have given up on it. I may end up...

It's been back 5 times now. 2 new barrels, 1 new slide, and the 4th time they shot it at only 15 yards and found no problem. I was able to repeatedly duplicate their 15 yard 1.5" 5-shot group. My best 25 yard group was just under 8".

Mine is going back to S&W today for the 4th time. Trip 3 yielded a new slide. No noticeable change. No statement or indication of a successful test fire at 25 yards at S&W. I had another person at my range shoot it from a sand bag with some otherwise good performing target loads in 115 gr...

I agree. I would have to bite my lip, but I could, I suppose, live with 4" at 25. Its awful, but... I just want it as a means to put a lot of cheap rounds down range. I was hoping to have my cake and eat it too, since I like the feel of the M&P. I put Trijicon HD sights on it and the Apex...

Mine is back at S&W for the third time. It's had 3 new barrels now. after the second barrel it improved slightly, after the third it got worse. They aren't really trying to fix it in my opinion. They probably get it back for their generic problem "groups". Pull a new barrel out of stock...

I think the accuracy issue could be far worse than reported. I've read several posts in this thread, and many in other threads and forums dismissing the very idea there is a problem because their gun will shoot a 2"-3" group at 7-10 yards. THAT IS NOT GOOD and if you think you are doing well...

The barrel is tight when the slide is forward, but as soon as the slide starts to move, the barrel starts to drop. It will actually fire with the slide back 1/8-3/16" from closed. But thats another issue. Anyway, with the barrel tight when the slide if forward, my guess is: 1) Locking Block...

I know there is some emotion imbedded in my post. For that I apologize. However, I am 100% confident it is not my technique. This serial number does not shoot well to put it mildly. I can't imagine any modern day manufactured weapon being sent out the door for sale shooting this poorly...

I shot it again tonight. Just to make sure it wasn't something weird yesterday. I started with my P229 .22 conversion and some Federal Automatch, (which is not all that accurate.) Off of a rest at 25 yds, I had just over a 2" group. Then I went to my USP .45 and had a 1.5" group at 25...

I have a new M&P 9mm full size. Just picked it up yesterday. Shot it today. It was produced in April, has the new contoured barrel, does not have a hole for an ambidextrous thumb safety, and it is a lemon. I don't have anything new to add, but to add my name to the list of "last time...
