I think i'm going to pick up one of those S&W Bodyguard 380's. Looks like a nice carry and something the wife can get familiar with.

Be aware that there are some reported accuracy problems with the FS and long-slide M&Ps. Thought to possibly be mis-timing of the locking block causing the barrel to lock up inconsistently. The symptoms show up at 25 yard shooting. One ought to be able to hold a combat handgun shot from sandbags or other rest and get 3 inch groups at that distance. Affected M&Ps will typically shoot 6 inch groups. One looming solution (so far) has been adding a Storm Lake barrel that's hand fitted. Cost is about $200 including the hand fitting. The other solution is still in the works - a revised locking block from Apex Tactical. Early testing has consistently shown either of these solutions to make the gun capable of 1 inch groups from 25 yards. One could easily shrug this off as being one of the vagaries of a combat handgun. I mean, who cares if it shoots 6 inch groups at 25 yards? Most people will rarely shoot if farther away than 10 yards. OTOH, I like a nice accurate handgun. Fortunately, my M&P doesn't appear to be affected as I am able to shoot sub-3-inch groups with it, but YMMV. |

I really need to get back to the range. I have been so busy with work and other things that I haven't been in a couple months. Need to make sure I can still hit the target.

Nice M&P, I have yet to have a chance to fire one but would really like to. Picking up my 2nd Ruger sr1911 this Friday, maybe I will take a nice picture of them both and post it up.
