An Ode to the S&W semi-auto.

Dear S&W. You are loved. You are cherished. You are amazing in so many ways.

You've provided a wonderful full-size platform with the
M2.0. You've redefined the micro pistol with the BG 2.0.

Yet you continue to break our hearts...

Quality Control:
You've simply let us down. Make the investment to improve, even if that comes with a price increase. Your products are relied upon to protect that which we cherish most.

Modularity:
Give us freedom. We don't necessarily need a pop-out FCU solution. Just serialize the frame insert, add a window to the grip module, and we will be very happy.

Shield Series:
The Shield X was not the full answer to our needs. You have more to offer. Modularity, full size grip module, removable backstraps w/ magwell option, more capacity. Give us a true competitor. But while we wait, at least give us a Shield XL with a full size grip.

Came across this, so figured I’d post the data for everyone:

Polymer = 212 grams, 7.48 ounces
Metal Aluminum = 271 grams, 9.56 ounces
Metal HD Steel = 496 grams, 17.5 ounces

M&P 10mm Carry Comp. It’s my home defense and woods pistol.

I picked up Mischief Machine’s backstraps in EDC and Swell. They are phenomenal. I loved the factory backstraps and feel, but these are better. They feel better in hand and grip/presentation angle is more aggressive, so the pistol now points more like my BG 2.0 and Shield X, which I like.

Plan to use the EDC backstrap without all the accessories when in the woods and the Full backstrap when used for home defense.

Ordered the brass and aggressive backstraps as well for my Metal M&P9 range-toy.
