I'd seen Glock frames for sale and even though there were no M&P frames to be had, surely S&W could do a frame swap, even if I had to pay for it. After some back and forth with them it wasn't something they could do. A bit disappointed since I owned 5 S&W semi-autos and a revolver, been a S&W...

Mmmmmm...How 'bout:

A new frame was my first thought. I contacted S&W but they confirmed what I already suspected, they couldn't provide for a replacement frame. I went on line looking for someone who might have one for sale but no luck. As the frame is considered "the firearm" it was an uphill battle. After...

@NCW Ray....Behold in all its splendor

Definitely destroying the frame, just not worth it to rehabilitate once material is removed. @Joe Reeser...The real gunsmith remark was aimed squarely at the guy who went all dremelly on my firearm. The folks at S&W 1st rate when I sent it in and on the only other occasion I had to send one in...

It's actually been a learning experience. Sure I rebuilt the brakes on the Jeep, I overhauled the carb on a buddy's 79 Chevy truck, I've designed and built tech from home automation to security to a rock'n streaming server. That said, I just had a nagging feeling that I'd best leave a trigger...

Just an fyi....My former gunsmith just stopped by with a box of ammo and another apology. So I got that going for me. Which is nice. Funny thing is, all of a sudden I'm not mad anymore. Between deciding to sell the parts, the purchase of a new Gen 2, the ammo/apology, and the responses to this...

@Rostoff....I added the listing to the classifieds ("M&P 9 Parts for Sale...Barrel/Slide & Other Parts") still new to posting here so didn't want to break forum rules coming out the gate. Anyway, figured I'd just sell everything but the frame to a good home. At 250 figured it would give a Gen 1...

4.25 M&P9 barrel and slide for sale...250.00 (Includes shipping)...Nearly new condition, 400 rounds fired. Includes guide rod & spring assembly. Sear assembly, swappable palmswell (3), grip replacement pin/tool, and Apex trigger included. Cash or money order. North Texas area. Frame damaged so...

After talking to a local gunsmith this afternoon (an actual gunsmith this time) I just slapped the slide & barrel up for sale. Took no more than 30 seconds and he said "I wouldn't, but then I like my teeth right where they are", then he congratulated me on my self control upon seeing the box of...

Yeah, even after he ponied up for the replacement my BP spikes every time I open the safe and see my brand new 2.0....then the Gen 1 right next to it.

So I paid a co-worker to swap out my stock M&P 9 trigger with an Apex trigger. He shows up a couple days later with a box of parts, turns out the "plug" filling the slot where a manual safety would be came loose and he tried supergluing it in place. Long story short, he tried using a Dremel to...
