So i have heard about them jamming or what not, is it the amo that they are using? Or is there a flaw that could be fixed? Im looking for another toy and im stuck between the M&P 10 mm and the 5.7 but also the FN 510 tactical but the thing is expensive 🫣
@@TexMexTactical my Ruger never jammed on me, but you do have to CAREFULLY load the ammo. It’s not loading anything else, they have to be lined perfectly. You can’t bs on cocking it back either u have to grip and pull. Other than that I haven’t had any issues and I’ve ran every 5.7 ammo on the market, even dragon fangs, which are not really on the market 😂
ONLY S&W M&P trigger i liked was S&W M&P Shield Plus in 9mm or .30 Super Carry. I agree this one is the best, but i still prefer Ruger 57 over this or FN 5.7
That’s like 1911 post trigger job level. That’s my biggest frustration with my FN 57. I’d rather have a lower end gun with a great trigger than a high end one with an average trigger. This gun should crush the Ruger 57 sales especially since it warns in the manual that it can discharge if dropped and you shouldn’t carry it hot, and it has a crappy trigger.
I took this gun to the range yesterday for the first time and thought this trigger was horrible. It felt like a cheap toy trigger. Very loose with a lot of play and a lot of travel. The grip on the gun is long and narrow which, for me, is a little uncomfortable, but everyone is different. Accuracy of the gun, bench rested, is not very consistent at 20 yards, which is where I zero my pistols. All in all the gun is reasonably priced but performance is nothing to write home about. Being an armorer, I'm going to have to do a lot of work on this gun to get it up to snuff.
@@gearrunner you a competition shooter? A duty pistol or every day carry should be 4-6lbs. You’ll be gripping your weapon tight in an adrenaline fueled situation. 2lb is fine for plinking and targets.
@@1SmokeyRider If I draw my pistols I’m pulling the trigger if it’s 2 pounds of 32 pounds. I only will pull my pistol if I need to use. I don’t use mine as an intimidation tool or to scare people it only comes out if my life or my families life is in danger.
@@gearrunner ok. Good luck with it. The over penetration of those rounds is ridiculous too. lol! The gun is a cool idea and I carry a S&w but that gun is a swing and a miss.
@@1SmokeyRider did I say I carried this gun, or did you just make an assumption? We were discussing trigger weight and you just went to over penetration. I carry a P365 with about a 3 lb trigger or so. You should really get all the facts
Why is everyone making a 57 pistol? It has garbage ballistics, and it’s simply good for penetrating soft body armor which almost nobody wears and it’s a really expensive round.
Thank you for stating this. I was thinking about a 57 for my small son to help me defend the house in case SHTF but now that you say this idk. He’s small and thin so that’s why it was thinking of it. Beats a .22 right?
Getting better reviews than the 9mm. Gel tests shows better impact energy than the 9mm, .357, and a 10mm. You Tube it. I'm buying the new Smith & Wesson....👍
@@gmenendez9569 it has good ballistics, definitely research it for yourself. I just bought the MP 5.7 for my nightstand. Ballistically it shouldn’t penetrate walls, and the wife and future kid can shoot it no problem. Rounds are expensive, but I have so much training on 9mm I’m not too worried about this one. It comes with a threaded barrel so a suppressor is on the horizon for me. Optics cut, so definitely a Black Friday optic, and of course a TLR-1 light :)
Lol garbage ballistics. Right. The low end 5.7 rounds has the same terminal effect as 9mm so imagine what the more expensive hotter 5.7x28 rounds would do. Ask the people who was shot by the 5.7 at fort hood!!!!
