S&W M&P 9 - First shoot

Post by Capt Jeff »

Picked up a new M&P 9 at the GRB gun show Saturday. Went out ot PSC on Monday morning to give it a try. Great gun! Smooth and accurate right out of the box. Shorter and lighter trigger than my XDm's, too.

And, as an extra bonus, it will will fit in the same holster/mag carrier as my XDm's. Extra magazines have been tough to find, howerver.

This gun is definitely a keeper. :thumbs2:

Congratulations! It is a great weapon. The M&P 45 shoots even smoother out of the box.

Nice gun i also have one. I also just picked up a M&P .45.

I'm a PSC member as well.

We need to hook up for some range time.

I need the ragweed count to go down before i can go out again.

Congratulations, sounds like you got a fine pistol. Those M&Ps sure seem to be popular. I don't remember ever hearing a negative comment on one. I need to find out what I have been missing and rent one to try it out. Happy shooting!
