Smith & Wesson M&P

[Universal 2.0]

I finally had an opportunity to shoot with a Smith & Wesson M&P pistol, and I must confess that I liked it very much. This was the M&P40 and it is the issued duty weapon of a sheriff's deputy. I have no idea if there is a difference between it and the "civilian" version, but I liked the trigger very much, and the grip was super comfortable. I would like to try a 9mm so I can compare it side by side to my Glock. I can certainly say that I would have no problem carrying one.

Jeg har haft en i 9mm, den var ganske pålidelig, havde ingen problemer med den... Ud over jeg ikke kunne ramme med den... Skød konsekvent 1/2 meter for lavt. Solgte den efter 2000 skud. Men det var på ingen måde Pistolen, det var skytten den var gal med.

skulle jeg ha en taktisk skyder, ville jeg hvis den efter noget tid viser sig pålidelig , vælge en arsenal strike one i stedet for glock eller s,w m,p

Må sige jeg er meget glad for min M&P skulle lige have justeret sigtet en smule men lave meget fine grupper. Aftrækket er jeg dog ikke så tilfreds med da det går en anelse stramt ifølge min mening

Prøv et Apex trigger. Det giver et blødere aftræk.

Did you replace the M&P with a different pistol? If so, what do you use now?

Jeg sværgede til G27 og har gjort det nogle år. Det sluttede så da jeg fik en S&W M&P compact i 9mm parabellum i hånden. Hold nu op en forskel, og langt bedre at skyde med.

En sig sauer p226 capsicum, den har jeg ikke problemer med at få til at arte sig ;-)

Jeg tror simpelthen ikke jeg kunne vende mig til det lange aftræk i m&p'eren. Men har besynderligt nok ikke haft de samme vanskeligheder med glock.

I had a Glock 17, sold it and bought a Smith and Wesson M&P 9 Pro. The overall fit and finish is much better on the M&P and i really like the trigger. I don't like the front sight, it has broken off twice because of the recoil. The gun is somewhat picky about ammunition but it shoots like a laser with 115 grain ball ammunition.

Edit : kan være jeg lige skal understrege at det ikke var pistolen der var noget galt med. Den blev testskudt af flere andre. De kunne sagtens ramme med den. Men jeg kunne ikke vende mig til den.

I bothers me a little that my first impression was that the M&P indeed seemed a bit more "refined" than my Glock. I have been a die-hard Glock fan for many, many years.

All kidding aside, I do think I will stick with my Glock for now, but certainly will not rule out the M&P in the future.

I should also mention that during the same range trip, I had the pleasure of shooting a suppressed AR-15. That was a lot of fun too. :eek:

Hehe, husker jeg rigtig hvis der også var noget med et IPSC kursus der tog røven lidt på dig for ikke så pokkers længe siden ;-) ?

Det er ALTID en god dag hvis man har lært noget nyt :-)

You remembered that, huh? It was actually two tactical specialists who offered to work with me a few hours. What got me what that they said to look to IPSC shooters for the best way to do certain things. That did get me good considering all the crap I have talked about IPSC over the years.

And yes, it is always a good day when we learn something new.
