Picked up my new toy today...

[ReilleysMom32]

And I know it's not what yall expected

Welcome to Court's toy: the Smith and Wesson MP 9mm Compact

Special thanks goes out to Dave for recommending Morey over at 10-8 Tactical on Jeff Highway. Morey spent an hour and half with me going over handling, grip, ammo, etc. I did pick up the Glock 19 just to make sure, but the S&W MP 9mm... baby, she just fits

What ammo are you planning to load it up with?

 

[ReilleysMom32]

Well, I shot the Gold Dot 9mm 147 gr hollow points today. That's what Morey said over at 10-8 Tactical would be the best

 

[LACamper]

Congrats on your first of many purchases!

 

[ReilleysMom32]

Tell me about it. I've bought shotguns before, but you couldn't get the smile that was plastered on my face off if you tried

where you able to get the factory $100 rebate on the gun?

M&P's seem to be good guns after the first generation's problem of the mag catch wearing out was corrected.
And Gold Dots are not a bad round.

May I recommend:

Edited to add: S&W has been offering a rebate, and I believe additional mags. They may have stopped, or you might have been gyped.
(I have no idea)

Lol, I was making fun of RichieRich because he was hung up on Para and only Para. However, after shooting the S&W today, he really likes that now

S&W was offering a rebate from Feb 1 - April 30. $50 off plus two magazines.

But Morey gave me a good price

I was not hung up on Para i just happen to like mine. Courts was just mad about be teasing her about glocks. But she bought a S&W that is far nicer imo. The feel and action are impressive. Also great gun to shoot. Very accurate and comfortable to shoot rite outta the box. A tweak here or there should she choose and it will be a really sweet gun.

Send in for the mags and rebate. S&W is very considerate about these things. It should be worth a stamp and envelope.

smith was offering $100 factory rebate on some of their guns, some where even marked down $100 plus the rebate. for example, a smith 1911 was marked down from 799 to 699 plus the rebate made it $599+tax, i was curious if the MP line fell into that category or if sunday was the last day it was offered.

 

[ReilleysMom32]

I'll have to call them to find out. Maybe I'll play the "I'm a girl and just purchased my first hand gun" route.

 

[Manimal]

2 extra mags is worth the effort, cant have too many...they feed your habit!

 

[swagge1]

Nice gun! Are you panning on getting your CCW any time soon?

 

[ReilleysMom32]

Feeding the habit? You don't even know.

I bought my membership at Shooter's Club plus I just went through two hundred rounds. I can tell this is going to be a fun, expensive hobby

May 18th. Tuan organized it for a bunch of us to get it that day and I took off of work to go. I'm still trying to find the best place to holster. And while trying, I'm thinking it'll probably have to be lower back because you can't really print it on me there.

IWB kydex or kydex/leather, will be secure and comfortable.

Use the link that Nomad posted to Blade Tech, you can do a google search and maybe find the model you want cheaper if you care to search.

I think thats the best spot for general wear.
