Truth.

How'd it go for you?

Soo you happy or depressed today?

bro we had no idea how it did so well

It's built for the holy land desert environments so the mud probably helped lubricate it

Probably because of the different action from the other handguns. I'm curious how the Beretta PX4 Storm would have performed since it has a rotating barrel system.

I own a Glock 19.5 and M&P 9c. Love them both. They’re both very reliable. The M&P is definitely a little more rugged tho. I have seen too many videos though where HK pistols have sucked during torture tests. Where are all the HK fanboys? They seem to be the quieter ones. The HK mk23 did horrible.

@@scott8908 to be fair almost all the guns did horribly during the 2nd test. I am a HK fanboy at heart but obviously i was a rooting for the M&P after it destroyed every other pistol in the ice test

@@scott8908fans of HK are only fans of HK because they think it’s cool that their guns are in video games. I think they’re quiet because the community is mostly nerdy dudes that use them as range toys

Under normal circumstances it seems like a quality side arm will function after being dropped in mud. I wonder how well they would all do if they were dropped and only stepped on once. Which would seem like a more realistic test. The MP definitely did awesome though

@Skookhunter17954 Personally, I believe that it is a great time for pistols. Even some cheap guns are getting a record for reliability(Canik, certain Taurus pistols). I feel that finding the right gun is more about personal preference these days. I just get tired of hard-core Glock fans scrambling to shit on the M&P every chance they get because they don't want to admit that Glocks are overpriced and not even top dog anymore. Sig fans can be pretty toxic as well. But I always seem to get more flack from Glock guys. Or even when I would be at a gun store and I would see guys recommending guns, they would talk about how Glock is the best. Sometimes I would interject on how the market has changed and then I would just get ignored. Like damn, I am just trying to show that you don't need to buy an overpriced brick anymore. Sorry for running off there. The short is, most pistols will be reasonably reliable. But I just want certain toxic fans in the gun community to accept reality and stop being such pricks about people choosing other brands.

Totally agreed Andrew! I LOVE my M&P 2.0. It was my first gun, and 6 pistols into my collection now, it’s still my favorite!

Me too, been a S&W fan for years and it is good to know she will run all day long.

What I heard from the XM17 trials was the M&P had a hairline fracture in the frame when they did a round dump torture (think it was 10k without failure). It was implied that the M&P did shoot all rounds, but due to compromised frame it was disqualified. If that's the case, its just a matter of getting the right mixture in the polymer and she would have been good for the the next phase of trial, though it would have been nice if the Army actually conducted the 2nd phase of the XM17 test.

Apparently so! I remember the ONE time I shot a Deagle, it was at a range and just a rental pistol so granted who knows how many rounds it had seen since last being cleaned but wow... jam-o-matic. As I recalled, struggled to get through 2 consecutive rounds, might not have managed 3 whatsoever.

My personal gun only ever had one malfunction, where a .44 Magnum case got stuck in the chamber and didn't extract (which seems more like a problem with ammo than anything else), but I always clean my gun every time I fire it, even if I just put 20 rounds through it. Also the springs are recommended to be replaced every 1000 rounds.

I bought 2 9mm and 1 .45 mp shields back in 2017 for less then $200 each. While they have been reliable guns they are to big for the round count imo. Only time I ever really carry that one is if I am going somewhere I have to leave in my vehicle. I haven't looked at the newer shields so maybe it has been addressed with the size to round count.

@@caleb9422 The Shield Plus is a 16 round capable gun with the new 15 rd mags, so the “issue” has been addressed; however, the size to capacity issue is not actually an issue. Many people still carry 1911s and revolvers, and they are perfectly equipped to defend themselves. Nothing wrong with wanting more capacity in a small gun, but it isn’t an issue for many to carry less. Boils down to preference.

I just hated the Glock ergos. Though I was always a S&W fan. But I contemplated trying various companies when I was searching for a modern carry gun. But when S&W released the 2.0, the more I read about the improvements over the first gen, the more it made sense to me. Then I bought it and it ran amazingly for years. It still does. Still, no matter how much I insisted, I could never talk about the M&P's merits without a Glock guy scoffing about it. All because Glock had "time" to be "proven". I am just glad that the M&P 2.0 has had enough time and testing to "prove" what I have been saying for years.

My friend has one, not sure why but I never liked it. Ny all accounts its a great gun but i just cant like it. Hurts my hands when firing in a way that glock doesn't, even though it's supposed to be "smooth" bc of the gas. (I say "glock" but I have a beretta apx because I also refuse to get a glock.

I have to shake my head at that. The 1911 and the Hi-Power are the same basic design

@@ericvanswoll4611 Yeah but the hi power has a trigger disconnect, and tighter tolerances than the 1911, and the 45 has a bit more push back on the slide, which probably ate through the mud better.
