M&P 9c - Just Got It

[PaulS 0706]

Picked it up this past Friday. Sent 100 rds. down range with it Saturday.
I was pleasantly surprised by the feel of the trigger after reading all the bad press about it being gritty etc. The reset does seem a little "long" to me and it is not overly tactile. But all in all I like it and it is a keeper. I can now retire the Walther PPKS as my carry gun since its hammer likes eating my hand as much as driving the firing pin home to touch off a round.

My only complaint...dang my fingers got sore loading the mags.

The magazines are very hard to load. After running only a hundred rounds through mine I bought an 'UPLULA' speed loader.

It's the greatest invention since canned beer.

You now have a fine carry pistol and I think you develop a technique with loading the mags so that it gets easier.
Lots of fun and luck with your new toy.

+1 for the UPLULA.

Thanks guys..and yes...I did purchase the Uplula magazine loader. My fingers thanked me. Plus I was able to actually get 10 rounds in the magazines.

Luv my 9c

I settled on it now (I hope )after many years and a trail of buy/sell handguns.... You will probably be pretty happy with it! With 12 rds in it (in FL) and with 17 rd mags as spares, I don't even carry my beloved Sig P226 anymore....

Paul S: the Uplulu is a nifty gadget to have and use with your M&P 9c mags. Works like a charm.

I just finished a class and the instructor thought I was a wimp for using an Uplula, until he tried to hand load a brand new M&P 9c 12 round magazine. After pinching his thumb and first two fingers he grudgingly said "damn tough spring in that little sucker".

BTW - Congratulations on your 9c. I've put about 2000 rounds through mine in 2 months with only one jam and that was my fault for racking the slide back too slowly at first. The M&P 9c shoots very well for a gun with a short 3-1/2" barrel and I've been shooting at 15 yds and scoring well. At 5 yds and 10 yds, it shoots just like my 4-1/4" 9 Pro. An excellent concealed carry gun.

Congrats on your new pistol!
I am a big fan of the 9c. I got one as a backup for my 9FS, but I find I shoot the 9c just as well and carry it more now. Go figure.
