Customer Reviews for Smith & Wesson M&P40 Pro 15+1 40Smith & Wesson 5"

Great fire arm. Accurate, easy to use and clean. Changeable back straps make it very comfortable in your hand.

The best shoting most accurate pistol i hever shot. Love this pistol!

I love this gun. The trigger is perfect for quick firing, the barrel is nice for aiming and accurate. It is a little top heavy and gives it a little bit more kick back, but the grips make up for it. Its easy to disassemble and is very sturdy.

I bought this handgun for my wife. She is fell in love with the S&W M&P when she was taking shooting lessons. We haven't shot the one we purchased, yet, but I'm sure it will be good. Bud's as usual, was very good- prompt service and delivered as promised!

Nice pistol. Very reliable and have used it in USPSA Limited 10 matches with no issues. Could also be a nice base setup for Limited class. The sights are very useable with a bright red fiber optic in front and large easy to find rear notch. Liked it so much bought one in 9mm to shoot production class. I would buy again. 5 stars.

I picked up my M&P Pro.40 along with an M&P Pro 9, and we went straight to the range, Great, Great, Great gun. I love the M&P series and the the Pro's are the best, this will be my new production gun this year….mainly because my wife won't let go of the 9. Buds price and service are top notch as always and I look forward to my next purchase.

Just picked mine up today and immediately put 100 rounds of steel cased Tula through it, no problems. If it will run that cheap stuff fresh out of the box, all others should be a given. Also ran PPU hollow points and Perfecta 180 fmj both brass case 100%. The grip ergonomics are perfect with S&W's aggressive texture inserts. The Buds photo shows the older smoother model. This gun is slim, light weight and tough. One gun writer has put over 30K rounds through a 9mm version. This gun should be the new service pistol for the US military. Excellent point of aim accuracy with the fiber optic sight.

I had a great first time buy from Buds Gun Shop. The transaction was easy and fast shipping! The handgun was in perfect condition and exactly as described! I have another gun coming tomorrow and I can't wait! I will definitely buy from Bud's from now on! Thank you Buds for an awesome experience!

Love the gun. Very good trigger, the reset is not very noticeable but good enough, otherwise a great trigger. Shoots very comfortably, the grip, the recoil, the sights, all very comfortable/shootable. I bought a Storm Lake 9mm conversion barrel and two 9mm magazines and now have two guns in one. I like the gus even more as a 9mm, and the Storm Lake barrel made the gun more accurate, at least for my shooting.

1st off... Buds was great as usual. Don't hesitate to order from them. As far as the S&W M&P 40 Pro... good weapon. I fired about 100 rounds without any issues in terms of FTF, FTE, etc. Fairly smooth trigger pull. Recoil was very manageable for a 40. I did add an Apex RAM to provide a better trigger reset, Now for the oddity. After firing the weapon, with the slide locked back, I inserted a fully loaded mag and smacked the bottom of the mag to ensure it was in. As I did this, the slide released ON ITS OWN, and I had a round chambered! This happened 3 more times while I was at the range. I made sure it was the gun doing this and not an error on my part. So then I thought I had a defective gun. But after researching on the internet, I learned this can be a "quirk" of polymer handguns, and specifically the M&P. I have never had another semi auto do this (Glock, Sig, even a S&W shield), so I was surprised when I learned this can happen. Seems a bit dangerous to me (at least at 1st). The S&W manual does state "do not use excessive upward force when loading mag into the pistol, because the slide could go forward on its own." Since I will be using this weapon for competition shooting, its not a big deal. I will just expect this to happen based on how I like to insert my mags. But it is something to be aware of if you have a new shooter using this type of weapon. Keep that trigger finger out of the trigger well. And also note that the slide releasing on its own does not happen every single time. It all depends on the force that you use to insert the mag. I played around with mine some more and, as indicated by S&W, the amount of force dictated whether or not the slide would release on its own. So, you might be expecting the slide to release automatically, but it might not depending on the force you use. I don't like that inconsistency, that's why I gave it 4 stars.

GREAT PRODUCT! very well made would recommend to anyone! Buds did a great job keeping me the consumer in formed as well!

A+++ Great gun I put 200 rounds through it no problem what so ever its quickly becoming my favorite. Awesome trigger. As for Buds A+++ on service and delivery

I love this gun. The finish is excellent, the trigger is wonderful, and functions like a work horse. The 15+1 capacity in .40 is something you never take for granted. The trigger breaks clean and crisp at around 5 lbs, it's a little gritty right out of the box but a few boxes down range smooths that right out. The fiber optic front sight helps me acquire targets much quicker than a three dot system. The one and only complaint I have about the gun is the trigger reset is very hard to detect but I installed an APEX RAM (reset assist mechanism) on it and afterwords made the reset much easier to feel with my finger. All in all I've never owned a handgun I've enjoyed shooting as much as this one.

First off - glad this gorgeous M&P is FINALLY in my hands. What a relief! In a nutshell: Received first order update *8 days* after the order was placed, and that was to inform me the gun made it all the way to the shipping department. *Two weeks* from the date of the order, I had a new M&P in my hands. Considering the wait, and the FFL fees on the other end - no real savings or advantage going this route.

This gun is just beautiful. Is in perfect condition and everything in order. My order took a bit longer than I expected but it was my fault, I used the cash option to save a few bucks and had to wait for the funds to clear, next time I will use credit card and pay the little extra. the actual process of shipping the gun was super fast after the funds cleared. I love this gun, just the color on the picture is different from the actual gun. I think it looks better in that greenish color, but Im very happy with it. My first Pro series M&P! I will definitely buy from Buds again soon.

Nice gun! Fired 400+ rounds at the range with nice tight groupings. Buds as always quick and efficient in shipping and communication. Take down of the gun simple, the feel of the weapon solid, I have large hands and the large grip option fits me perfectly! Sights excellent. No mis-fires, smooth as silk; recommend!

Awesome gun. Shoots smoothly, trigger light, has improved my shooting with the longer barrel and night sights. Definately one to have in your arsenal.. Highly recommend this gun.

Love it! I have put 500 rounds through it no problems. Very accurate at 50'. The green fiber optic front sight is great for my aging eyes. The palm swell options are great. I tried all three and found the large to be very comfortable for my big hands. The weird thing about this semi automatic compared to my others is not only are the shot groups tight, but where the brass lands in oddly tight and consistent groups too. My other semi automatics send brass every which way and pretty far. This gun they are in a pretty tight circle only a few feet away...weird. Great since I reload. Cuts a lot of time brass hunting :)

If you are thinking about buying one of these, just do it. It feels like a 1911 without all the weight, it is very easy to point and hold, and it shoots constant 1" groups at 10 yds with my cheap 180 gr lead target reloads. The bore is really smooth, fit and finish is perfect, and the loaded chamber indicator is icing on the cake. The fiber optic sight is a nice touch. This gun ate 200 rounds with no jams of any kind. Oh yea, and the trigger is nice; it has a lot of take-up but bottoms out then breaks right under 5 pounds. It resets consistenly and was a little gritty feeling through the initial take-up, but it is not noticable at the range. Again, very great trigger for a double action gun. One last thing, I don't buy guns anywhere except from buds because why would you? They give you the best price, you make a few clicks with your mouse, then your gun shows up. If you have ever ordered a gun from a local gunshop it is nothing but a headache and it take 3 times as long. Thanks again buds for you outstanding service.

Definitely my favorite striker fire pistol. Accurate out to 50yards out of the box. It has excellent grip and gets the hand close to the axis of the bore which aids in recoil management. Definitely will buy another. Buds service was excellent, just really sorry it was mailed USPS. USPS never on time or know how to handle a package, lucky they dont have to turn profit.

smooth order from buds great deal! just what i was looking for! would definetly by from buds again!

Second gun from Buds delivered on time. Got what I ordered no disappointments. Plan to order again.

These guys are awesome! I ordered the gun on Wednesday and it arrived 3 days later at my FFL. That is good service! The gun is what I ordered and expected. I will use Buds exclusively from now on. This was my first internet purchase and I was skeptical but transaction was smooth as silk and I saved about $100.00 over purchasing locally.
