23 round factory magazines

[Dave Lively]

Anyone know of store that sells the factory 23 round magazines is including in their M&P®9 M2.0™ COMPACT OPTICS-READY SPEC SERIES PISTOL KIT ?

I have had too many bad experiences with aftermarket magazines to buy anything except factory magazines. I don't really have a need for 5 more rounds but would like to buy a couple anyways. Couldn't find any listed on online.

You used be able to buy magazines as well as grips, replacement springs, etc. direct from S&W but all I could find on their site were pages that said to call. Maybe this was a response to various politicians and anti-gun groups attempting to sue gun makers over how perfectly legal products are sold. Maybe S&W decided running a web store was not something they did as well as their distributors. Maybe they got bit by a ransomware attack and don't want to deal with all the cyber security. But being able to buy direct from their website without having to call was a nice option.

S&W has a history of not making new magazines available separately for months after they are introduced with a new gun. But if anyone finds them somewhere be sure to post a link. After you have ordered all you want of course.

Not factory magazines per se, but I've had really good luck with the Taylor Freelance 170 mm magazine extensions for M&P pistols. I've used them on 9mm and 40 S&W magazines without an issue.

Eventually would be my guess. Smith still sells the old style 23rnd mags, so I would guess they will eventually sell these new ones.
