S&W M&P 40

[southernpride]

I just purchased my first M&P 40 and need a little info. Most of my pistols were Sig and when I purchased a new one I changed out the guide rod with a stainless steel rod. Does anyone here have any input on changing out my S&W guide rod assy with a stainless guide rod assy.What other modifications can be made. Thanks

I haven't modified either of mine, love them both as is. Plenty of mods to make them your own. I'd shoot the cr*p out of it then see how you like it. The old saying "try it, you might like it"!!!!!

Why do you want to change out the guide rod?

No reason to change the guide rod, unless you want to swap recoil springs.

Most of the M&P mods involve the trigger and sights.

Look into Apex products for a meaningful improvement to your pistol.

Sound advice for those new to M&P (like me).

Fire 1000 + rounds in it then think about what you don't like about it. Many have complained about a gritty feeling while pulling the trigger. APEX products and others can fix the gritty or just go and purchase a Pro series M&P. Welcome to the team!

I'm sorry my mistake ,mine is the Pro Series. It is suppose to come with a 4.5 -5.0 lb trigger. Still waiting for a chance to take it out and shoot it. Several years ago I had a Walther P99, How does the M&P 40 Pro Series compare to the P 99.
