I was looking around for a particular handgun, and ran across this at Sporting Arms, and was wondering if it has really been released yet...



SW109402FC

S&W M&P 4.25" BL 10RD NS W/IL-MD 357SIG

Pistol

$542.00







If so, I am in heaven and need to get one ASAP.



anyone know anything defininte, or have i been under a rock and missed this?

I am no expert here and am sure someone will chime in but, yeah it has been out for a while. I bought the 40 knowing that one can swap out the bar. and shoot 357!!

 

[rjhauser]

somehow I missed it....



man, i must be getting old....



:wink:

I talked to a S&W customer service guy today 5-10-07 and he said they will have the 357 Sig out in July. But you know how that goes.

I previously talked with customer service and they said the Sig barrels will not be available for probably at least a year after they get the guns out to the public.

Nope, not out yet.

thanks. nice to know I m not fully senile yet.

 

[coltman1985]

So if they say July, translated means Nov.?

 

[cruze5]

not what i wanted to hear about the barrels

I have a Glock G32 with a .40 S&W barrel and a Lone Wolf 9mm conversion barrel. One gun-three calibers!



It's a lot of fun and an nice little SHTF kit if I should need it. I would like to do the same with M&Ps some day.



If the M&P40 was the first M&P out the door I wonder what the hold up is on the M&P357? I would think the only difference would be the barrel.



Either way, I'd like to get one when they're available.

I used to love the .357sig round. But with 9mm's being designed and loaded so well these days, I sorta felt it was pointless to A. Spend the extra money for ammo B. Sacrifice capacity C. Deal with the increased recoil (over 9mm).



I'm happy with the results that both HST and Doubletap ammo have gotten out of their 9mm ammunition.
