I want to mention a detail I flubbed in this video. Chads tan 2.0 in this video is the same length as the 9L I have that's a gen 1. So dummy me thinks the black 2.0 is a compact when it's actually the standard full size gun. Minor detail but I thought I would mention it. We've been filming like mad men so sometimes it's hard to get every little detail right 100 percent of the time...😇 We now return you to your regularly scheduled program. More coffee! More Sweet rolls! More feee-wing!

Iraqveteran8888 I'm curious as to how you guys felt about the deletion of the extended beaver tail?

@Blackhawk556. 7 лет назад

Iraqveteran8888 I was literally going to tell you that right now. good thing you shut my mouth before I started

@JW23551 7 лет назад

Iraqveteran8888 I'm really digging these videos in lieu of SHOT show live coverage. You can never hear what anyone is saying with all the noise in the big hall, or the similar hassles of recording on a live range.

@alejandroflores-samaniego9320 7 лет назад

Iraqveteran8888 how do you compare this piece, with the Springfield 9 mm competition pistol? The long slide one.

@jeremy8715 7 лет назад

Thank you for correcting that error. Maybe an insert in the video would be of great help to future viewers.

@highlandrab19 7 лет назад

but if he already has a gun on you going for your own gun is the last thing you want to do.

@HerbanLegend420 7 лет назад

No, its the second thing you want to do. The first thing is get control of his gun, and the third thing is shoot him with your gun.

@jblps 7 лет назад

Can't believe you would have the nerve to say that to someone who has actually been through that. and the thumbs from the youtube experts. smh.

@Foxhound_J 6 лет назад

I'm glad you made it through and are armed now but what does being shot feel like? I know in most cases it's not immediately incapacitating but like can u feel the round enter, was it a through and through, did they stay in? I'm just curious

@the_borax_kid2233 5 лет назад

I was wondering if it had been cut and spliced until the slide locked

@mr.gunwrites2491 5 лет назад

50 years a 1911 man, owning 7, I finally broke down this last summer(July 2018) and purchased my first Tupperware gun, the full-size FDE w/manual safety Chad was shooting. I am impressed with its smoothness and accuracy. The trigger will take me some getting used to, the long stroke hints of a double-action revolver though so much lighter in pull. Sweet as it is, like a new girl, I'll take her home, hold her, fire a few rounds in her, sleep with her by my side, but my heart still belongs to the 1911. ;-D

@D-A-1776 Год назад

I love a good 1911 but Smith and Glock have some of the best polymer pistols.

@johnpagdilao6075 7 лет назад

As a fan of this channel I want to say thank you, You could have done the SHOT show videos like last year. You hung back and focused on doing some great quality videos.

@johnpagdilao6075 7 лет назад

Nathen Wallis Yep Quality over Quantity.

@nickerickson9169 7 лет назад

John Pagdilao I agree. I love the products without all of the background noise. definitely the best gun channel on the yewtube

@johnpagdilao6075 7 лет назад

There were a few videos that were required viewing for me but a good bunch were all the same.

@nickerickson9169 7 лет назад

Yes sir but the beauty of this is that he gets to do his reviews on his own time

@johnpagdilao6075 7 лет назад

That this video for example if it was. SHOT video would we have a detailed review of just the slide release? Probably not lol

@Clint_the_Audio-Photo_Guy 7 лет назад

You're building a regular Hickock 45 style range there I see, haha. If only you had a ravine to shoot across to a gong!

@carolannesparkman6938 4 года назад

@mikeoakes747 7 лет назад

I love that my slide goes forward on my m&p when I hit it hard. saves that fraction of a second, I'm curious why people wouldn't like it.

@christopherdean9684 7 лет назад

mikeoakes747 Yeah

@silentbob267 7 лет назад

I don't even have to hit it hard on my M&P 45. I also like the feature and am kind of sad to see they made it where the new ones won't do it.

@chrish5224 7 лет назад

mikeoakes747 love it to! your half way to a full grip anyway. better imo, then having to use the slide stop/release in a stressful situation or take your hand back off the gun to rack & chamber a round, when your hand was already in motion to re-grip and present. seconds saves lives.

@tecobyrd937 7 лет назад

MichaelOakes I guess it's just a personal preference some like it some don't

@apa7611 4 года назад

because of some Fing Lawyers that’s probably why. Sandy hook nut job I think the the company he used the gun got sued. Lawyers and law makers always blame everything except the nut job.

@dougbower9479 7 лет назад

Eric, Thanks for showing the M&P 2.0. I just had to run out and get a 3rd M&P Pro as I compete with the Pro, I want the slide to close on a fresh mag. I can't see why anyone would want the slide to stay locked back on a mag change, if you are in a defensive situation the faster you get the gun back into the fight the better.

@OptimalArmament 7 лет назад

He just shot through my entire range session worth of ammo in the first minute lol.

@Yarn01 7 лет назад

Excellent video. My M&P full-size 9mm was the first firearm I ever bought and I still love it. Never failed (except when my GF limp-wristed it and it didn't eject properly, but that isn't the gun's fault). It's a fantastic firearm. I prefer it over the Glock personally. The Shield is my carry now just because I liked the full-sized so much.

@Mrgunsngear 7 лет назад

@MOE13576 3 года назад

@ajaj3196 2 года назад

Started shooting pistols with .22lr and a SD40, shot mostly those for a few years and bought one of these next. I can believe how nice this is to shoot and how awesome the transition has been, I've overlooked 9mm for too long but am ultimately glad I started with .40 first. Once I put a couple months of training with the M&P 9 I might have to grab one in 10mm, the idea of a of a heavier caliber in the M&P package is very appealing.

@rams9803 7 лет назад

Great vid! I own 3 m&p's with a Apex trigger on it and I never had any problems with them. They're great light weight, comfortable grip wise, and affordable pistols for the price.

@HollerTenn 6 лет назад

@DeeboComing 7 лет назад

The more I think about it, the slide going home after ramming a full mag in doesn't sound like a bad thing. I mean, what else are you going to do after you put in a full mag???? And have they already made the 2.0 in the compact size??

@olliecrow3547 6 лет назад

Blake Patterson my thoughts as well. I like that it functions that way.

@zachz699 5 лет назад

@toddk1377 4 года назад

The auto forward on the gen 1 m&p always chambered a round for me.

@mkc7908 7 лет назад

"Fixing" the slide stop so the slide won't fall on a magazine insert breaks one of the best features of the pistol. Competition shooters LOVE that feature.

Jacob Lester Yeah, it's just some minor improvements. Not really a new gun

@iLLuzion1st 7 лет назад

Hey a bit new to guns here... sounds like IV8888 said you could swap out the trigger for an APEX. Is that something you guys would recomend as well? Looking at this being my first hand gun and really liked my buddies M&P45

@garrykoalman3684 7 лет назад

Nathen Wallis Agreed. I have an M&P 9mm and the biggest thing I don't like is the trigger. Squeezing the trigger feels like I'm squeezing bag of dog shit on a cold winter morning.

@393strokedcoupe 7 лет назад

Garry Koalman lol! Yeah, I have a Apex flat face trigger in mine and it's pretty awesome! I also did that little trigger bow trick and reset is very pronounced.

@chrish5224 7 лет назад

393stroker what trigger bow trick? all ears for any helpful tips. thnks

@teamklr2bar 7 лет назад

the slide dropping when the mag is seated is one of the major reason I love, use, and recommend the old m&p. I would have to disable that feature on the new one.

@chavezchavo 7 лет назад

Regarding the slide lock feature... Some people argued that when the slide goes forward upon inserting a fresh mag; was indeed a feature of the gun.

@alfazio047 6 лет назад

chavezchavo hell yeah that's a feature :) dude quicker reload times!!! that's why we evolved from the muzzle loader or cap and ball or colts with a loading gate revolvers that handle full metal jacket with a double action or...... Whatever's next lol

chavezchavo sorry went on a ramble there lol ummm yes I like the slide snap shut lol 👍

@gregoblv5561 7 лет назад

I know that there are trigger upgrades to be had and that is great. But to buy a new and improved Ver 2.0 and still having to go buy a good trigger seems like they did not do all they could have. It is not like they had not been told. Thank you for the great review.

@Blebona 7 лет назад

@aaronp9835 5 лет назад

I agree! Should be a switch for it haha

@joycethompson1361 5 лет назад

Simply put a drop of oil on the slide catch work it a few times and it works easily and fine. Slide release also with no force.

@Kornholeeoo 5 лет назад

Si_Vis_Pacem Para_Bellum I know. All my ARs will slam with an aggressive mag load. It they don’t, I oil them. Or just a good slap on the left side. But I don’t see that as a problem either.

@Miamibeachlifestyle 4 года назад

Yeah I wonder if you could just remove the little detent To make it go home

@rideitwithjay5948 7 лет назад

Thanks for the upload, I've been anticipating a review from you guys for a while. Since I got word the M2.0 got out. Very informative, honest and fun to watch, as always. Kind regards, Ride It With Jay

@Ironcoremagma 7 лет назад

Forgive me for my ignorance, but would it not make sense for the slide to go forward IF you jam the mag in there? In a stressful situation it gives you one less thing to worry about, no?

@kylewood8327 4 года назад

My thoughts exactly...and your not ignorant, it’s called getting an advantage. Even though it might be only 1/2-1sec that could be what saves the day!

@Don.E.63 4 года назад

I would see it as an advantage as well, i would save time in a critical moment, i have the 2.0 and kinda wish it would do that, but it is what it is, no matter how perfect someone makes a particular item there will never be absolute consumer satisfaction with whatever it is.

@TrustJesusisenough 4 года назад

Way late to reply but I agree! It'd take a literal split second to realize O the slide went home on a seated mag I have a round in the chamber back in the fight!

@toddk1377 4 года назад

@@Don.E.63 Remove the detent. It's stupid easy. The 2.0 will act like the gen 1. I did it. No issues at all.

@gunsaccessories8853 7 лет назад

Very nice pistol. Thanks for the review!

@redraiderrider3289 6 лет назад

I enjoy the fact that Smith actually changes some significant things like the length of the steel subchassis and the size of the rails for the slide.... and guys act like they did nothing. However glock can release a "new model" with a different recoil spring and change the grip surface and its a superawesomeamazingwundergun.

I thought of upgrading to the earlier model of M&P but was disappointed when I realized that the full size model had no manual safety lever. Now as you stated that the M & P 2.0 has a manual safety lever I am definitely interested in buying one. Thank you guys.

Who the heck cares if the slide goes home after a loaded magazine is inserted? I love that my original M&P and 92FS would do that with a loaded magazine.

@silentbob267 7 лет назад

I've heard many say that if you are not inserting a full magazine it can fail to chamber a round. I believe this is more of a problem for competition shooters and people practicing with less than full magazines though. In a combat situation odds are if you are inserting a magazine in a hurry it will be a full one and even if it wasn't a tap/rack/bang would have you back in business.

@ericwhitlow7364 7 лет назад

I am one that cares. I like consistency. I don't want the slide slamming forward when I am preparing to pull the slide back.

@chsims7032 7 лет назад

I just picked up a FDE M2.0 for $500 from Dunhams. For $500 I couldn't say no. Usually they are way overpriced and when I saw the M2.0 I was expecting a ludicrous price of like $750, the same store has a P320F for $699, a pistol I picked up for $550. I can't wait to see and feel how the M2.0 stacks up with the smooth shooting and very accurate P320F.

@caseyterrence1606 7 лет назад

I like that I can slam the Mag in when reloading and the slide will come forward and seat the first round. I have never had a jam or failure to feed from this. This is basically rewarding the shooter for slamming the Mag in hard, which is a necessity. Seen many mags just fall out when shooters are "running and gunning" obv not a good thing.

@DeeboComing 7 лет назад

The extraction looks a little weak.

@TheMotorick 7 лет назад

@troyhodulik5542 7 лет назад

@bozookaBo 7 лет назад

the full size seemed to spit the brass out a little better. Ammo type could also be a factor.

@Strokin3 7 лет назад

I bought the 5inch version. First time out the brass was hitting me in the face. Took it to the dealer he polished the chamber and feed ramp. Guess a bur or something was slowing extraction speed down. Now it make a nice pile of 115gr brass at 4 o'clock about 5 feet away. 124gr about foot farther. Anyways the weak ones should improve with break in.

@mj1653 7 лет назад

those cut outs on the frame are dumb....really dumb...M&P fans have been asking for a better trigger for years. This gun was suppose to correct that unfortunately it looks like S&W ignored that again. We shouldn't have to spend another 100 plus on an aftermarket trigger just to make the trigger decent...

@zephyrs_silence270 7 лет назад

SPECTRE 21 I picked one up today took it the range. mind you I have the shield, performance center, and original m&p all in 9mm my 2.0s trigger is about the same quality as a glock however a little less than my apex on my performance. Some people have told me some are worse than others... I wish there was a way of knowing and could trust everyone on the internet.

TJ Panbiker I probably have around 2000-3000 rounds under my belt of shooting various calibers, so I am far from a firearm "pro" nor am I an outright beginner. I didn't see or hear anything that needed explaining. it's a highlight and intro of a gun, not a video on what things like detent mean

@TrustJesusisenough 7 лет назад

Iraqveteran8888 I thought it was normal, to have the slide drop in a round if you smack that next mag into the weapon. glock does that doesn't it? I like that it does that. at least to me it takes another step outta the reload. what do you think?

You also do not need to spend $2k on a 1911 in order to get a good trigger so lets just leave the over exaggeration to the left wing media. What makes the M&P's trigger suck is that garbage two piece hinge design. Just by changing out the trigger itself without the internals to a one piece flat face design would be a huge improvement.

Rayne8689: I love the "hater" remarks that are tossed around to paying customers that have opinions. I have a nice collection of M&P pistols which includes police trade ins as well as my 9MM Shield EDC.

The M&P2.0 is outstanding. I just never could get the older model the way I wanted it. With the new grip texture, deleted beaver tail and improved trigger, I prefer the M&P over the Glock for sure now. The one thing I still would change is the sights. I can't stand stock M&P sights. The best stock sights I have seen are on the FNS. I love a bigger front dot. The Trijicon HDs look nice. May have to give them a go. In my limited M&P experience, I can say the trigger on my M2.0 is much better than the M&P40 I used to have. I got the FDE 5 inch version, but have not fired it yet. Can't wait to!

I'm pretty sure if you're in a "stressful" situation, you want ammo in the gun and the slide forward as fast as possible. All these "militia" wannabes should just stop lol

We just bought 2 my girlfriend got the 2.0 and I the older m&p 9mm. Absolutely love these guns.

@thegooch7206 7 лет назад

I like that slide stop on the old gun. I like when I slam that magazine in, it throws one down the pipe.

Myself personally am an m&p guy. And can tell u are also from the way u touched on all the changes. Like u said, if u are an m&p guy this pistol is for you. I can actually say the trigger pull is lighter. Which is the only change from the previous "newer" original m&ps. I put in an apex USB for the signature m&p grit and the slight over travel. The trigger is very good and smooth now. The negative in my opinion is the new slide stop design...not sure what it is but my slide has failed to lock back on the last round a few times. I've owned 9 m&ps, and currently own 4 as they are my favorite polymer pistols and have never had an issue with the slide not locking back after thousands of rounds I put through previous m&ps...I'm pretty sure it has to do with the new slide stop design.

@paulh6101 7 лет назад

well, I found the issue with the slide stop design comparing with my original 4.25". There are two things, first is the fact that the slide stop is not under spring tension anymore, it moves up and down manually. Secondly is that u can actually push the slide stop inwards a millimeter or two as with the original u cannot push it in at all and the fact it's not under spring tension anymore u can hold the slide catch down with a high tight grip preventing the slide stop to catch the slide. I'm dissapointed...

I have had mine for a few years, a couple thousand rounds through it and no hiccups. Great gun.

@raymonortiz3084 7 лет назад

Nice video. I like the improvements S&W did to the pistol. However I notice the beavertail has been deleted. Somehow it doesn't look quite like an M&P anymore. That's ok, I'm still happy with my 1.0 version. 1400+ rounds and no malfunctions. That's a good pistol design!

I got the .357 Sig barrel for the 4.5". It is absolutely outstanding. Please do a vid on .357 Sig ammo & performance, and it out-performs other auto calibers without being unmanageable. Keep up the good work!

@pressendforspanish 7 лет назад

FINALLY! A slide stop that operates the way it is supposed to! I can't tell you how many "discussions" ive had with guys who think that "auto load" was a "feature" of the gun. Lol!

@davefoulkrod 7 лет назад

Love the slide lock on the older M&P its nice for shooting IDPA, You run your weapon to slide lock, Then push the mag in hard your ready to go, Huge time saver,

@agricola 5 лет назад

The 2.0 addressed everything that was wrong with the m&p for me. For all the whining, I find the triggers in the 2.0s to be extremely useable and dare I say it, underrated.

@PPSChadwick 7 лет назад

I'm so glad Smith & Wesson listened to the consumers but if only they'd take it a step further and make a Glock 19 sized M&P then I would fully convert!

@BearsDenGaming 7 лет назад

Just got mine yesterday and put 200 rounds through it at the range today. Its great

@dollarbillme 7 лет назад

I really appreciate your honesty regarding the sw trigger and CZ grip. So many channels only give glowing reviews. I hope smith releases a model with old style slide stop. I really like the auto forward when using it in competition. I just checked and my VP9 will auto forward on a new mag as well :-)

@jpugh3076 7 лет назад

i have m&p 40 both compact and full size i have always been a fan of the slide running home on a fresh mag keeps you in the fight if your vigilant on muzzle awareness i dont see this as a problem but beneficial just my 2 cents

@ProGunsZach 7 лет назад

I love M&Ps, and these new ones look awesome, but I'm happy with my first gens. I like that I can seat a mag quickly so that the slide releases. And I like that the forward serrations on the .45s go all the way up the slide. The triggers aren't amazing, but I'm fine with them.

@Bus-Stuff 7 лет назад

any ideas with doing a vid with Hickok 45? You are both one of my favorite gun minded individuals. I was raised with guns, and I love both of your videos, and I believe you are the best youtube personalities that makes very important, and informative videos. Love it, keep doing what you are doing

@drmaudio 7 лет назад

I bought a M&P 9 a few months ago. I would like the better grip texture, but a set of talon grips will take care of that. Other than that, if the trigger isn't much better, I guess I really didn't miss out on much. I bought a Apex DCAEK with the gun and installed it before I ever shot that particular gun (just the internals, I actually prefer the hinged trigger shoe to the glock style blade) and it sounds like I would still want to do that with a 2.0. Anyway, I got the old one pretty cheap.

@EthicalPatriot 7 лет назад

Guys, great, honest review! I just got the full size Flat Dark Earth. I cleaned it Friday and will shoot it first time Monday. Thanks, as usual an entertaining informative video. Ray

I'm glad you decide to upload premium content instead of covering the underwhelming shot show.

@Ovokor 7 лет назад

Dang it, I really liked the fact that the smith and wesson m&p had the feature of releasing the slide and cambering a round if you slapped the fresh mag in hard. I am sad to see that go how ever I am glad they made some good improvements.

@fishman80 7 лет назад

Pretty sweet! I was really hoping for G19 sized version. NO the compact is not the same

@SouthernGuy8503 7 лет назад

I have an M&P full size 40 and haven't had any problems with it. The only bad thing is that I haven't had it that long, maybe a little over a year and of course my luck they come out with a new gen. Not a huge deal, just my luck I guess. I put night sites and did a couple things to the trigger. Replaced the trigger itself with an Apex polymer trigger since I was used to my Glock trigger so I didn't care much for the horizontal hinge. I also put an Apex sear in it and made the trigger feel better and the reset is much better. So since I've done stuff too it I'd rather just keep it than sell it just to buy a 2.0.

@breydonkokas6778 7 лет назад

My next pistol will be an M&P 9mm 2.0. It is the only gun I have ever held that felt as natural in my hand as my CZ 75 SP-01 Shadow. The grip texturing is fantastic and they are quite reliable. Can't be beat here in Canada for $590 in my opinion.
