As said above by 18DAI - it's all about profit margin, and they must be making more off of the M&P line.
Popularity-wise, although the 3rd gen S&W's have a cult following, I don't think consumer demand is even close to the demand for polymer pistols away from gun forums and out at the gun shops.
I do wish they still made some of the 3rd gen models. A new 3914 (no rails please) would be sweet, and another 457 too.
