How much did they get you for? And any mag to mag well clearance issues? Specifically the mag bottoming out with locking into place first?

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!

Another good point for this weapon is it fits all the holsters for my wife's 9mm so I don't have by new ones for it :thewave :hurry: :biggrinjester:

and you can probably convert your 40 to 9mm should you need to in the zombie apackoflips when .40 ammo is scarce.

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:
