Smith & Wesson M&P 45 Compact 45 ACP 4" 8+1 Black Stainless Steel Interchangeable Backstrap Grip
[109308]

Date Added: Saturday 08 August, 2015

The M&P 45c came exactly as described and arrived at my FFL within 4 days. I shoot alot of Glocks and bought this to try because it is very friendly for left handed people. The gun has an ambi slide catch which I really appreciate, however it is to hard to use as a slide release so I still have to slingshot the slide. (and I am a large/tall person). I tried reversing the mag release and found the release was too far away from my thumb to use reliably. I use the large backstrap so you may have better luck with the medium or small one.

The M&P shoots well. I put 200 rounds consisting of 230gr fmj, 230gr hp, and 230 grain fmj reloads. I had zero failures regardless of whether I slow fired ot did a mag dump. The gun was zeroed perfectly out of the box and hit where it was aimed. It is roughly the size of my G19 and has excellent ergonomics. For a 45acp it is a very soft shooter. The trigger is not very good, mine has a heavy gritty pull. This gun was test fired 07-2015 so it is very new stock, but according to the S&W forums the 45 compact still uses the old nasty triggers, the 9mm's get the new good ones. I will be putting an Apex trigger in it soon. If the trigger wasn't marginal I would have given it 5 stars.
