Total price was less than 500. Didn't have any problems with the mags. Shot 50 rds using both mags 10 rds twice and 15rds twice

Awesome then! I only brought up the issue because I played with several full size M&P's straight from the factory that would not function properly. The mags would fit all the way in and the lip would stop it, before it would get deep enough for the mag release to catch it. They apparently forgot to leave extra room for debris and such, but I know they wanted a real stream line and modern look, but they better not pass on function! I hope it works out well for you!

Hopefully won't have to do that..... Will have to run out .45, .380, and .22LR also. Plus will have another 9mm available too :biggrinjester:
