I have had this firearm for about 5 years, put 2000+ rounds through it. Has eaten everything from cheap steel to Hornady Critacal duty. The trigger does take some time to get used to, 8.5 pound pull. Unfortunetly, it does effect accuracy. I have upgraded the guide rod and takedown plate. Will do the trigger soon. When I purchased this, M&P's were a solid $500. I was able to buy the 9mm & .40 for the price of 1 M&P. I have shot it clean/dirty, doesnt seem to mind either way. Very similar to a Gen 3 glock. I think it is a good entry level or novice gun. ...more

Good for beginners since it's priced well and is simple to use. I've had problems with Browning ammo so be sure to test out different ammo to see what works best. The trigger is subpar and can lead to low left shooting. This can be corrected by emphasizing proper grip so in a way, it teaches new shooters how to properly shoot a gun accurately. ...more

With over 4000 plus rounds of every kind of ammo no jams, no problems. Very accurate with Independence aluminum. Wish the trigger was 7lbs instead of 8. I love this gun.

Definitely cheap
I bought this gun almost a year ago. I've been to the range with it a few of times now. I've put about 200 rounds through it with 3 people other than myself. No one who has shot my gun has been able to get the spread down to a reasonable level (at 9 feet away about 24 inches between the farthest 2 shots). Out of 16 shots, we're lucky to get all of them on paper and any 3 within 6 inches of each other. At first I thought it was because I'm terrible. I haven't shot many handguns to this point, so I figured it was me. I took a friend out who shoots as little more than me and he did equally bad. I took my wife out and she'd never shot before. Naturally she did terrible. At that point it was all but confirmed: we were just bad at it. But then I went out to the range with a friend who shoots all the time. He has 5 handguns now after seeing a few, reloads his own ammo, spends a bunch of time at the range, etc. With his guns (mostly compacts and subcompacts reading from 40 to 45) he and I could both shoot decently tight groups at 9 and 15 feet. We got my pistol out and we both did terrible. He missed the paper (8"x8"Target) half the time. I missed several altogether as well. The range safety officer actually asked me if I paid for the gun and told me it was one of the worst models S&W ever made. I don't know about that, but it sure shoots like garbage compared to other handguns that are a little more expensive. You can't beat the price if you're looking for a door gun for your truck. If you're using it for hobby shooting or planning on home defense, look elsewhere. ...more
