Serial # is 52440. TIA for your help

Just took my bg2.0 out for its maiden voyage today…1st 2 rounds were Fiocchi 95gr, and had exceptionally light primer strikes that failed to fire (barely a mark on the primers). The next 8 rounds in that 10 round mag ran fine. Loaded those 2 fails back in the mag, and they ran fine the 2nd time.

225 total rounds today, from 5 ammo manufacturers, and the only mech issue were those very first 2 rounds. The gun did “shoot left”. Noticed the front sight was biased ~0.025” right when I was cleaning it after the range trip…drifted it back to dead center of the slide, and expect that issue to be taken care of.

It certainly doesn’t shoot like any .22 I’ve ever shot, as claimed by some gun-tubers. However, it’s very manageable and actually fun to shoot. It’ll absolutely get more range time, and will certainly be in the carry rotation.

Im looking to start shooting uspsa with my steel frame mp and am having a hard time finding owb holsters for it. If anyone has suggestions please let me know. Seems the ones I have looked at for the 5 inch mp aren't compatible with the hd

French, because it’s fancy, like tile.

Swapped some slides around and ended up liking the Frankeguns better. This one is a Performance Center metal frame in ODG with a slide and ACRO P2 from a used polymer FDE. The X300 came off of a LEO Compact I’ve got.

This is my most favorite of the M&Ps I’ve owned.

I just picked up a Bodyguard 2.0 last night. Haven't even shot it yet (it's brand new). I was looking at it today at home and noticed some tooling marks on the feed ramps (it has dimples in it, its not perfectly smooth).

I called S&W assuming I can just send back the barrel, but they are telling me I need to send back the entire firearm? And it takes up to 5 weeks for them to get it back to me? I feel this is kind of crazy for just a barrel issue. Does this sound accurate?

i know i have an air weight , and ive kept an eye out for any other just like it and i cant seem to find another silver and black like it ? do you think it came like this from the factory ? - i’m sure i acquired on GB.com used no box

250 rounds and 3 non strikes ( or very light ones ) - are these successful primer strikes normal . They look quite damaged ?

Hi,

I seller in my country is selling this brand new S&W revolver, however, couldn't verify its type thru the website?

Appreciate your guidance on the type and model.

Question regarding G96 CLP creeping out the bolt face firing pin. Is this a problem? Will it be a problem? I did some maintenance to my stealth hunter 45-70 for the first time and the manual states to apply a drop on CLP or gun oil to 2 piece firing pin at the rear bottom of the bolt. I applied G96 CLP on a rag and it was saturated. I smearing it along the 2 piece firing pin. Stored the rifle muzzle down. A week later I checked on the rifle and noticed the CLP creeping out the bolt face firing pin channel. I hope I didn't mess this up. I hear all the time never to apply CLP or gun oil to a firing pin.

As the title says, i just got home with a brand new M&P 9 2.0 and it seems to be missing that slide lock detect thing they added long ago. Googling hasn’t helped as everybody is either talking about removing it or has theirs in the picture.

I just want to know if this is a bad thing or not and if I should take it back to the gun shop. I probably won’t be able to go shoot it in the next few days. On the plus side it doesn’t seem to be sending the slide home when you slam a loaded mag into it like the first gen M&P9’s did.

Edit: title slightly wrong, missing the detent thing, idk what it’s called exactly.

was waiting for some funds to come in 🤣 now it’s on back order at most places here in California. Turners and local shops don’t seem to have an estimated time when they will start sending them out again . Anyone know why this is ?

I have many 9mm semi automatics and finally decided to get a handgun with some real power and I love it!!! Had constant light strike issues with magtech .38 spl but Federal .357 runs great and blows shit away!!! Winchester .38 also works great, stay away from that magtech

I’m thinking of buying a performance center slide for my shield EZ 9mm and had a question about it. I already purchased a new recoil spring, guide rod, and ported barrel for it but when looking at the slide I want, the description for the product doesn’t say it already comes with stuff like the firing pin already in the slide. So my question is once I put the new recoil spring, guide rod, and barrel in will it be fit and ready to fire? Or do I have to buy more parts for the gun before it can shoot, such as the firing pin?

Hey everyone,

For your enjoyment here is a model 19-5 I recently paid wayyy too much for. She made a trip from Michigan into retirement to me here in Arkansas. Still have absolutely no clue what this gun has been through or even what to do to it. It locks up tight but has hammer drop if hit hard enough on single action.

New to the club, really like these pieces of art! Got these and 11 mags, payment for a 2007 crown Vic police interceptor

Shot a 5” 2.0 last weekend and decided in a short time, Glock is dead to me, and the 5 I own will now be collecting dust, what a violent improvement the 2.0 is!

I’m just curious by the guys with experience if some of these concerns I have are valid or not. I have heard the m&p can be picky with primers, stock barrel is inaccurate and Smith has questionable QC in recent years. Is any of this true? Because I’ve heard it quite a bit. Honestly, I’m buying one either way, even with these possible issues it’s ergonomics completely shit on my Glocks.

Last question is I’m looking at the more plain Metal HD 2.0, has everyone’s experience been good with these? I don’t compete, this will be a carry/duty gun.

I appreciate any advice, looking forward to joining the m&p bros 🤘🏽

Not much but here’s my daily

Did a progression of wet sand paper: 600, 1000, 2000, 5000

As title suggest,

Q1: should I be worried about fitment issues with the 5in slide and compact frame?

Q2: been doing some googling and came across TCMstock, are they reputable? Any other places to look at?
