*10mm* Smith & Wesson M&P 2.0

[nucular]

The 2.0 trigger is the best out of the box trigger I have ever felt. I do like the new flat faced trigger but it's not enough of an improvement to upgrade from a non-flat faced 2.0.

Have you had a chance to try a Canik trigger? Best out of the box trigger I have had was my Springfield 1911 Ronin 45.

Not yet but I have seen a few at the local shop. Pretty nice?

The Canik especially the newer I'd say tp9DA and up have good triggers out of the box. You'll have to try it out. The latest Canik is the METE. I've watched a few reviews and they say it's the best trigger yet. I'm tempted to buy one. SFT OR SFX doesn't matter to me.

I picked up the full size from Bobcat yesterday. It fits my hand well and the grip texture is fantastic. The trigger slack is long and gritty but the staging is solid and the release is clean.

The sights are really tall in anticipation of an RMR which would cowitness, but I’m going to look at lower profile. They are dovetailed in so should be easy.

The balance is really good.

Haven’t fired it yet, will report back later.

That's interesting about the grittiness. These are the same triggers as the shield 2.0s, right? Maybe I just lucked out with mine but both are smooth as silk.

You have to keep in mind 'triggers' and their description are probably the most subjective thing on a handgun.

Truth, but in this case it feels like there is sand in it. I have’t had it apart yet to clean it out, but it won’t surprise me to find actual grit.

My most recent M&P (my second 2.0) a 45 compact (4” barrel full size frame) was the only one that the trigger seemed gritty/sand but after around 200-250 rounds it is broken in.

That said I have had several M&Ps since 2007 a 9 a 9c gifted my Daughter her own 9c a 45 a 2.0 45 full size and my compact. Son in law has a 5” 1.9 pro and a 2.0 9. Then I shot a couple THPD M&P 40’s before hey went to Glock 21’s. In all that never had any bad or gritty triggers just the one and it worked out.

Looking at a new 9 with optics ready and flat trigger and think they will be a nice gun.

The 10mm M&P looks great but for me with the majority of 10mm being 40 slightly plus P I’ll probably pass.

Yeah, I now have about a hundred dry fire and a bunch of takeup, I can see inside the slide where the trigger bar rubs against the firing pin block is starting to get shiny and it’s a lot less gritty.

Dang. If he had noticed that, I may have bought that instead of the 36M

 

[DadSmith]

Crap. Oh, well it's only money. I guess I'll go ahead and spend a little more of the kid's inheritance.

My firearms are a part of their inheritance.

I just came from Highsmith's and they had a new M&P 10mm. That gun was pretty nice, solid, and I love those those new triggers, this one had a very nice trigger pull. It was the shorter barrel with thumb safety. 649.00 if anybody needs one.

I totally believe you, but for some reason I never saw that posted on their FB page news feed even though I checked every day multiple times because they said they'd post it.

I STILL can't find that post on their news feed from any day last week.
So I assume they put it up and quickly removed the post.

Had to post like that because the forum software was turning the Facebook urls into media links when posting from a mobile device.

Thanks, I did finally find them when I blew up a picture from the 18th.
I guess I was confused when they told me they'd "announce" it on their FB page when they got them.
They just showed one in a picture that had other guns in it, and I had to blow it up large to see it.
NOW that I know how they "announce" them I'll be better prepared.

KYGUNCO had them in stock for a fast minute. Thought about it for too long a minute but now I think I'll just wait for a LGS to get one in....

 

[DadSmith]

Finally a review.

I bought a compact no safety yesterday at ZX. They had a couple others in stock, a compact w/safety and a full size.

I am going to order a red dot for it (already set up for it and has the tall sights), but am sort of mystified by the whole thing as this will be popping my RDS cherry.
