Picked up the new M&P 10mm with 4 inch barrel and no safety today! Brought it home and mounted a Swampfox Liberty red dot sight on it. I installed the Med-Large grips and it felt good. It surprised me since I have rather large hands and it felt better than the large grips. Can?t wait to shoot it

what kind of recoil is a 4 inch giving you on it? I'm getting my 4.6 later this week

I feel the recoil is very snappy. Was going to woods carry it but think I will stick with the G20

Thanks for that info. Could you tell us what ammo you were using?

Edit: Just saw your other post. Underwood 200gr HC.

It?s tough to beat Kevin?s ammo 😀

How did you mount the Swampfox red dot on it. I'm thinking of doing the same thing. 7 plates came with the pistol and haven't a clue as to which one to use.

For 20 years I've been begging for an American made 10mm, semi auto that IS NOT a 1911 with a manual safety. I've settled for foreign guns for a long time. Tanfoglio, Glocks, Springfield, etc have all done the job, but what I've truly wanted was a new Smith, Ruger or Colt. I prefer guns with a safety, I guess that's why I chose the Tanfoglio over Glock for so long.

This M&P is exactly what I've been waiting for. But damn I really like that new compact XD Elite for concealed carry. Might have to buy both.

Now I just have to convince the wife.

   I got the Swampfox Justice mounted on my S&W 10mm and have it sighted in at 25yds so far.  I initially started with Blazer aluminum 200gr ammo to get on paper and then the Blazer brass case 180gr ammo. Final sight in with the Hornady Custom 180gr XTP rounds for hunting. I have some Underwood 200gr XTP ammo to try out and some Sig VCrown 180gr ammo I'll try out with it after testing some Sig 180gr FMJ ammo.
   Recoil wasn't bad with Blazer ammo in the 10MM but you could sure tell the step up in power with the Hornady Custom loads. I'll try some of my Fenix ammo in it as well.

   I also sighted in my Super Redhawk 41 Mag with the iron sights and after putting a Bushnell 2-6x scope on it out to 35yds so far. I load Hornady 210gr XTP in the 41 Mag.

I was looking for a holster option for the M&P 10mm and choices were limited due to the high sights. I had a Fobus paddle holster  for the HK USP .40 that I had
and it works fine for the M&P 10mm.
