I recently acquired an optic ready M&P 4 inch with thumb safety and installed the Holosun 507C 2 MOA with green reticles.
A couple of things that I found interesting. First, mounting was extremely easy with the assortment of mounting plates provided with the pistol. Second, with no adjustments it was dead on at both close up distances and out to 25 yards, no sighting in adjustment was necessary, windage and elevation was spot on. This was with Hornady 135 grain FlexLock ammunition, which I have found, seems to have a relatively flat trajectory and hits point of aim at 3 yards out to 25 yards.
The Hornady FlexLock has a bit of a flat tip that some previously owned semi autos do not love, but the M&P operated flawlessly with them.
Finally, while I very much liked the curved hinge trigger on my Shield, I was was initially a little apprehensive regarding the flat trigger, but found the flat trigger to work very well.
The M&P has extremely soft recoil, easy to rack slide, safety that is easy to reach and operate with positive operation, and overall very comfortable to shoot, at least in my very subjective oprinion. I really can not say enough good things about the Holosun, the green reticle is easy to pick up and accurate.
Just my $ .02 on the subject of the OR M&P 2.0 Compact and Holosun 507C
