Smith & Wesson's M&P 40c, subcompact, is perfect for my concealed carry/self defense requirements. Hi capacity, well made, reliable semi auto with manual safety and good trigger. I carry with the standard mag, very little imprint and I can handle the pistol very well without the extended mag. It shoots all types of factory ammo. I use Federal 180gr HST JHP for self defense. Buds has been so great in all of my purchases from them.

I have been very happy with my choice here. It is reliable, easy to shoot, accurate. Had no issues with any ammo used in it, it mows through them all. But, we all know that S&W is a company you can trust almost implicitly.

Decent CCW weapon. Trigger is as mushy as expected with the full width M&P line. Ended up replacing this with the M&P Shield that has WAY better factory trigger

Hello, This is the Second time I have bought a Gun from Buds, and I am Still very pleased with the service that Buds Provide. Everything from the Ordering to shipping to my FFL and the very good shape the gun was in when I picked it up. Buds is still the best place to buy a good Quality Gun ! Price and Selection.I do like and enjoy the " Make an Offer". I was able to get both of my guns a tad less than the First price. THANK you again Buds,... I will be buying again from you !!! The S&W M&P 40C that I just bought is a very Good handgun ! Not to small & not to big, but just right for CCW. Russell.

Good solid gun, nice size, plus 10+1round compact and S&W M&P all for $441 free shipping. Buds always have the best deal and service hands down. Thanks Bud

Took it to the range today and put 100 rounds of junky range ammo through, and it ran flawlessly. The trigger is great and not gritty at all like some claim the M&P triggers are with a nice clean trigger break and very light reset. The pistol is very accurate, even for a .40 and the recoil is unbelievably light for a small pistol. The manual safety is "okay" to say the least, and it has a tendency to get pushed down easily and knocked out of safety. The S&W Shield has a much better safety IMO. Overall, great pistol and the M&P line is definitely up there with the best firearms.

BUDS WAS GREAT AS USUAL. AS FOR THE PISTOL I AM NOT IMPRESSED. FIRST OF ALL AFTER 10 ROUNDS GUN WOULD NOT CYCLE FULLY. SENT IT TO THE FACTORY AND WAS NOT IMPRESSED WITH THE SERVICE I RECIEVED. WHEN I FINALLY GOT IT BACK IT FELT LOOSE WHEN FIRED SO I GOT RID OF IT.

First, Buds shipped this piece for me really really fast!!!! Thanks Buds!!! The s&w mp40 compact is a great gun and I couldn't be happier...

The compact M&P 40 is the best CC handgun that I own. Shoots perfect, fits good in my hand for a compact. Love the interchangeable grips. Couldn't ask for a better CC handgun. Very well built, like all my other S&W guns. I highly recommend purchasing this gun if you are thinking about, you will not be disappointed.

Beautiful pistol. Good size for CC, big enough the grip fits my hand perfectly. Great shooting, decent trigger. Love it.

good little gun.the only thing i had an issue with was i purchased it with a safety. I guess my grip would sometimes push it half way into safe mode. other then that great gun. great price bought for 75.00 cheaper then my local gun shop.

Exactly what I wanted! This handgun is simple to operate, easy to take down, and perfect for a CCW. I've only put 100rds down range so far, but it was a pleasure to fire. Recoil isn't bad and the white dot sights put you back on target quickly. Accuracy is pretty good for the 3.5 inch barrell. Regret not buying this one sooner.

This is my third purchase from Bud's and I couldn't be happier, excellent service and fast shipping like usual. This is my first striker-fired pistol, I did a lot of research before deciding on the M&P and boy, did I make the right decision. I absolutely love it! The trigger is great, nice and crisp, breaks just when I want it to. I only have about 50 rounds through it so far, but no Failures whatsoever and it is very accurate right out of the box! I wasn't sure if I wanted the manual safety or not, but so far I am pleased. The safety is in a very natural spot and doesn't get in the way at all. Flicking off the safety feels very natural and is quick and easy to access. I haven't quite decided if I like the Medium or Large backstrap best for my beefy hands. I need some more trigger time to decide for sure, but I am glad I have the option of changing them back and forth for that truly custom feel. If you are considering this model M&P, go for it! You will not be disappointed!

I did the research before purchasing this handgun and made my decision. WOW AM I HAPPY! 250 rounds now fired without a single issue. I highly recommend the Smith and Wesson M & P pistol !! The Bud's price was $130 cheaper than my local gunshop. Thanks Bud's gunshop.-- Tara

Put 50 rds. through it yesterday....... What a GREAT GUN.....not a single problem with it. Accurate and recoil is not bad at all for a 3.5 in. barrel. Team BUDS did a great job again with my order........ 2 in a row !!!!! Will be ordering more from TEAM BUDS !!!!!!!

Great price, great firearm. I traded a Kimber Ultra Carry II for this gun and am very happy with my trade. The Kimber was a nice gun but it never really felt right to me. I received the M&P today and put 50 rounds through it and am very pleased with the accuracy and the trigger. Can't wait to shoot it some more.

I picked up my M&P 40c from my FFL dealer last week...took it down to the range right away to test fire. "Wonderful gun". No feed or ejection problems at all. Ran about 200 rounds of ammo thru it..mix of FMJ and some hollow points. The gun is extremly accurate with a very controlable recoil...fun to shoot. I traded in a Sig Sauer P229 to get the M&P...plus some cash back. My hat is off to Gurney...the man is a real pro, great to deal with. Excellent communication thru out the entire transaction...and real quick turn around time....thank you Gurney! This was my first gun buy from Buds...it will not be my last. They are fantastic to deal with.

Great gun!!!!! Just not sure about ordering online again. I found it alittle nerve racking because of the wait. I got my gun on the six bussiness day but it was 9 calendar days. Guess thats not to bad but it was a whole five days of processing, still don't get why it takes so long to process.. But all in all the service was great, just wish they could find a way to speed it up!!
