Maximus Joseppi You need to listen and watch his videos before commenting. He said he won't review it if it sucks. So everything on his channel has passed his stamp of approval as far as quality. And saying he gives terrible reviews and insulting a fellow subscriber just makes you look like a jackass, and does, if I'm not mistaken, fit the definition of "bashing". One does not get well over half a million subscribers by not creating quality content. How many subs does he have? Let me check, oh half a million. How many do YOU have? 421. And since you are so quick to jump all over the dude, where are your "reviews"? I see one or two at most on your channel.

Great review. I just recently switched from the Glock 22 to the S&W M&P .40 M2.0 for duty use and shoot the M&P way better than I ever shot my Glock. Even just screwing around, I shoot better on an IPSC target than I have ever done on my best qualification run with the G22. The only pistol I shoot better with is the 1911. I'd certainly have no reservations getting a compact M&P in 9mm for concealed carry. Just a note for those who care. The slide stop really shouldn't be used to release the slide on a mag change and isn't even designed to do so. The proper, more efficient and reliable method, is to bring the support hand down on top of the slide at the rear to mid-point grasping it with all four fingers and the heel of the hand, rack it violently to the rear and release it so the slide travels forward at full velocity. This is so it can reliably strip the first round from a full, tightly loaded magazine and feed it into the chamber without hanging up. Trying to use fine motor skills while your bacon is about to drop into the fire could cause you to lose precious time making you Runner-up, which is no place to be in a self-defense event.

I have a first generation Shield and some say the trigger stinks on it, but I manage to put good groupings together without much fuss. Very serious about getting one of these as I love the Shield and it's a S&W so I'm confident that it will last. The one time I ever needed to use their warranty service I was impressed with what they did to correct my 622 that was having issues going into battery, stove piping, and failing to always eject. They put a master gunsmith on it and he signed off that the gun was fixed. That was 25 years ago and I've shot thousands of rounds through it since without a hiccup which is very good considering 22 ammo isn't always the most robust or consistent in quality. A company that truly backs up their products is hard to find these days.

I found the trigger on the 2.0 compact to be pretty good, Id say it's comparable to the glock, It's just that the hinged shoe design makes it feel odd. I also shot my p10c side by side with the 2.0c and found that though the trigger is definitely better on the p10, The m&p 2.0 compact is the flatter shooting pistol. Just my opinion.
@paulstella84437 жыл бұрын
Thanks for sharing this observation. Would you say, then, that a 2.0c with an upgraded trigger that was comparable to P-10c's would then be an overall better shooting gun than the P-10c? At least for yourself?
@xseaofgreen420x7 жыл бұрын
Paul Stella I would say if you put an apex in the 2.0 compact, you have a damn near perfect carry pistol. The controls are all much more smoother than the p10c right out of the box. The mag release, the slide stop, all much more easier to use. When you push the mag release the mag comes flying out of the bottom. The CZ fruitcakes are going to hate me saying this but I think the m&p 2.0c is the best new polymer pistol of 2017, not the p10. If there was such thing as the “glock killer” it’s not the p10c. Also we are starting to see in the CZ groups people are finding stress fractures inside of the frame where the main trigger pin goes through. I’ve seen multiple examples of this happening. People just don’t see it till they take their pistol down. I haven’t got around to checking my p10c yet but it has about 1200 rounds through it and I’m definitely concerned.

Barely accurate, m&p 2.0s are not worth more than hi-point. I haven't even gotten to 200 rounds and already my m&p 2.0 is malfunctioning. Failure to extract, failure to cycle, double feed & not to mention the slide kept locking up after each shot (mind you I'm using good quality ammo & oil like I do with my Caniks, Tisas or Sars, and runs like a clock). I've heard horror stories of the m&p literally blowing up with symptoms like this so therefore I have deemed this joke of a firearm unsafe & not recommend to anyone who doesn't like hot dangerous garbage.

I heard so many great things about the S&W M2.0 both .40 and 9MM that I bought one (.40). I already have a 9MM Sig Mk25, so I wanted to go with the S&W .40. That way, I can cross train between the two calibers, and also get to know two different brands of handguns as a beginner shooter.

I've carried a first gen M&P45 since 2009 on duty. When the slide is locked back, it auto-forwards every time I insert a magazine. It's a flaw, but it does it every time, so it makes for a nice, fast mag change because I don't have to manipulate the slide or slide stop. I purchased my own 2.0 9mm compact a few years ago and despite the "extended chassis" and spring loaded detent on the slide stop, it still auto-forwards, but it does so less reliably than my duty pistol. I called Smith and they agreed that this shouldn't happen. I sent it in for work, they kept it a month, said nothing was wrong with it and sent it back. When I called to ask why they didn't address the issue, the rep basically told me that this can happen with a polymer pistol and that I'm causing the problem by inserting the magazine too aggressively. Seriously, that's what they said. The only pistols that do this are my duty pistol and my 2.0. My Shield 2.0 doesn't do it and neither does my Bodyguard .380. I like the pistol and the way it shoots, but I will not carry a pistol for defense that I can't trust. I used to be hard core pro-Smith, but now I'm done with them. Just a friendly heads up to anyone that's considering this pistol.

I agree the Apex kit is superior to the stock trigger, but the 2.0 trigger is perfectly adequate, and actually very good after about 500rds. Which is the minimum I put a new handgun through before even considering it for carry.

Carried for two days and pulled the Dremel tool out and sanded down the back strap. Not only does it rub on your skin but it grabs your shirts. It’s hard to conceal if your garments all grab and stick on the grip. I took about half the stippling off and it’s still a good grip but doesn’t give you a rash and hang up all the material that comes in contact with it.

They're making the 2.0 Compact with a flat face trigger now too. It's really nice. The grip is perfect for those of us in the south where we are sweating heavily at the range. That grip I imagine is great in case an attacker is trying to get the gun from you.
