Is this a decent price?

A basic black M&P9 is $399 with the third magazine and free shipping. With night sights it is $455. You need to go to Bud's Police Supply and search prices there. You can get LEO pricing as a current or former military member.

My last two guns I used my credit card and skipped the insurance. I paid a few dollars more, but I like the safety in credit cards.

You shouldn't have to pay for overnight if you just ship out the slide and the handle. Take the action out, they aren't coloring that anyway.

No kidding? I thought you had to be current LEO. I assume they need a DD214? I havent seen mine in 15 years, have no idea where it could be. I might just have to suck up the $50 discount.

Nickel boron is a good look, but I like the vtac, reminds me of the little brother to the SCARs, flat dark earth SCARs are a thing of beauty.

You just gave me an idea.....why don't I get an m&p 45 get the slide nickel boron and then get the VTAC as well......

Ha...I can dream right?

I'm not allowed to comment on whether an M&P is selling for a good price or not. This is because I actually paid $449.00 plus tax for an M&P 40 Shield at my LGS last month. It's the first time I let my emotions totally trump my belief that MSRP is too much to pay for any gun.

I feel like my dates must have felt back in college when they awakened the next morning and said: "I did what? With whom??? Oh God, I feel like barfing... My life is over... I can never show my face in this country again. I guess I'll become a devout Muslim and wear that veil thingy over my face the rest of my life."

...Ok, maybe paying MSRP wasn't quite as bad as what they must have gone through, but I am still ashamed of myself none the less.

That one with the Flat Dark Earth body and Black slide is a Cabela's special. They want $600 for it. It comes with 3 mags a holster and the other range kit stuff. You could then send off just the slide for coloration but in the end you'd be more than the VTAC and still have plain sights.

FDE frame and nickel boron slide would actually probably be th best looking color, IMO...

Oh yeah! That would be sweet! Never even thought of that combo. Man now I'm even more confused.

This is gonna be an expensive pistol when all's said and done.

Gotcha I didn't know that about cabellas. I'm trying to get a hold of the guy now to see if he can make the lower half a custom color or not.
