Been longing for the M&P Pro9 ever since it was introduced at the Shot Show. I would love to see the thumb safety on this model also. It would be a great alternative to my Glock 34 for competition. To me, the thumb safety (M&P 45) gives the gun a great ergonomic feel much like a 1911. Wondering if this model will ever come to fruition...

I'm waiting too!

I didn't know it, but after seeing this post with the picture of the "Pro Series" I am waiting for one also. 8)

I was told that we should see these by the end of the year. I don't know how reliable my source is but I suspect the word he received came straight from S&W.

 

[Angry_American]

Forgive my ignorance, but what would be the difference between a M&P and the Pro series?

It looks like longer barrel, taller sights, and uglier slide serrations?





Good suppressor host?

I was waiting for the long barrel version but the range bag and 2 magazine deal convinced me that my M&P9 needed a partner in the M&P40. Got it 2 weeks back and sold my XD40 last week. 500 rounds later I think it is one of the best decision I ever made. :twisted:

That sounds kind of familiar. After selling my Glock 17 that ran approx 6000 failure free round sthrough in 10 months, I started wondering if I did the right thing. Now that i have approx 600 through my M&P9, I'm not looking back. I just wish I had fired an M&P before ever buying the Glock.

hows the recoil comparison?

 

[TOF]

Full power .40's are snappy in whatever you shoot. The XD was leaving the nuckle on my right thumb bloody after 150 rounds or so. The M&P boattail soes not. The better fit makes the percieved recoil less.



I like my M&P's



:twisted:

First I have seen of a Pro M&P. I would snap one up. Great competition pistol.

The M&P is the only .40 I have ever really enjoyed shooting. Quite an achievement.

I also prefer the current slide serration and feel no need for front serrations on this or any other pistol.

had the exact same problem with my xd-9. its a known issue with some shooters.

I would agree with the exception of the Sig P226 in .40 - way smooth.





I picked up my MP40 the other day and am loving it so far. Also put $$ down on a CZ-75B in .40 - I've gone .40 caliber crazy.

 

[JBP55]

Is S&W listening, we want the M&P Pro ASAP !

 

[2bigfeet]

Was talking to a shop owner the other day and brought up the subject of the M&P Pro9 and if he had heard of any release date, he said he was talking to an S&W rep who said its not going to happen. Also said that the thumb safety is strickly for the 45. S&W only put on the 45 to get government contracts and has no plans of putting it on the 9mm or 40.



One can only hope someone is spewing erroneous information.

 

[YukonGlocker]

I quit worrying about the longslide about a week ago.

I decided to just get another fullsize and have fun with it.

 

[Steelshooter]

I would like a Pro for gun games but then I shoot what I carry so I can do without it. It would be fun though. My guess is that we will see them at some point. Perhaps your shop owner is different but I generally don't believe a thing they say especially if they are trying to sell you what they have in stock.
