Got my M&P 9 today, first 9mm, gonna be fun to shoot, and easier on my wallet

question though, when I pinch the slide and the frame at the front of the gun, I notice there is a little play, is this normal?

That's odd, I hadn't noticed the caution before, guess that is a model that doesn't have the mag safety... Nice gun either way. 8)

Nice photos!



The play is totally normal.


I was told its normal. Play is there for the same reason why AK47's have such a sloppy tolorance(i.e. less likely to jam if dog hair gets cought on it)

Not one of my 3 MP's has anywhere close to what I would call sloppy tolerances. In fact I think the slide to frame fit is outstanding on these pistols.


I shouldn't have used word "sloppy"



what i meant is that tolerance between slide and frame are much more forgiven then say my Beretta. There for its less likely to jam up by small trash like it would with some of the other gun..
