I'm actually real happy about this thread and to read so much positive news in regards to the m&p 22, I'm purchasing one new tomorrow from my LGS. Does $375.00 sound right? I'm hoping to improve my mechanics and sharpen my skills as I plan on shooting my 40pro in IDPA.

I think S&W had them for $32 but they were on backorder. I was willing to pay the extra $2 per magazine so that I could get them right away instead of waiting a few months for them.
I paid $369. So that sounds about right.

The mags are made by Walther .. German imported which is why they are pricey.

Got my M&P 22 today, $364.00 cash. Nice! Now to buy extra mags because it only comes with one.

Note real happy with the mags. They can be a little "sloppy" when loading an empty mag. If you aren't watching what your doing,some rounds will "stand-up" in the mag if you take the spring all the way to the bottom while loading. Not like my HS and they all stack neatly (for a lack of a better word). As for feeding and shooting,no problems.

Still breaking mine in and it eats about everything I've feed it. Seems to like the Federal the best,Remington held their own. Even ate REALLY old lead Wildcats I found in with some old ammo. The more I shoot it,the better it gets. Still getting use to the back sights,but shot a nickel size group at about 8 yards on my last mag (with the Federal ammo).
I did have a few of the cheap-o rounds that ejected but didn't have enough "poop" to push the slide back far enough to grab the next bullet out of the mag.
It's going to be a great plinker. Shoots way better than what I thought it would from what some people had been saying about it.

Shark, You got a good price on your MP22 from the prices I've seen on the internet. I paid $389. plus tax for mine. I ordered 3 mags from .44mag.com and paid $34.95 each for them. Got them in three days w/o paying expedited shipping. Good folks to deal with. I have 2 on BO from S&W for same price. The S&W CS rep told me they were in stock, charged my credit card, and about a week later I got a BO notice saying they would be shipped in 3-4 weeks. I will take them but that is really poor customer service on S&W's part.
On the positive side, I am expecting my M&P9 from my LGS on Tuesday of next week. Last Monday when I ordered mine, he had 11 M&P's in various calibers, etc. but did have the one I wanted (with the ambi safety like my MP22). I stopped by yesterday to check on my order status and he was down to 1 in .357. For a small town, that's a lot of sales for one make and model.

You know I found the M&P 22lr 10 & 12 round mags at midway, it says expected in stock date of 6-1-12.. They have them listed for $26.95 I ordered four, hopefully will be in as expected. Using the one mag that came with the gun is ridiculous.
I also order myself a s&w drop in .357 barrel for my fs 40 and the midway competition range bag that is on sale finally.
Gun sales are just crazy right now. New guns are on back order and used guns are flying out of the LGS and pawn shops in the Tampa Bay area. The request for ccw permits here in Florida are at an all time high.

WA CPL applications are up 30% from last year, which had a double digit increase from the year prior..
Every time I am in my LGS there is someone filling out paperwork on a new purchase, often numerous people..
Anyone know a good place to find the M&P22 for a good price? Local stores want almost m&p9/40fs price for it now, $450+
