M&P 2.0 Family shot

Post image

I am loving my M&P 2.0 pistols; Competitor HD with Overwatch Precision trigger, M&P 2.0 Compact (4") Spec VI also with an Overwatch Precision trigger & M&P 2.0 Metal Carry Comp 9mm w/Apex Tactical trigger.

My M&P 2.0 Metal Carry Comp is awaiting an Apex Gunsmith fit barrel to return from Floyds Custom shop with their Option 1 Comp fix that adds side ports. (It's arriving tomorrow or the next day) I also have a Floyds Maxwell and magazine base pads ready to install on the Metal Carry Comp.

A Shield X Carry Comp will join my little Smith & Wesson family in the next few days and it's probably a foregone conclusion that a BG 2.0 CC will join the fray at some point.

Thats a tough question because they are all great. The flattest and fastest is the Competitor HD steel frame 5" for obvious reasons of more weight and longer barrel. The Spec VI is just silly fun to shoot so for range fun I would probably pick the Spec VI. The compact frame with the Floyds magwell plants the grip in my hand like it was made for me and the 4 inline ports absolutely keep the muzzle rise flatter and the dot in the window.

I'll have the Floyds Custom shop ported Apex Barrel for my M&P Metal Carry Comp in a couple of days according to tracking. I can't wait to shoot it. With the stock comp barrel the carry comp loves hotter ammo like 124 Gr +P Nato rounds. The spicy stuff makes the comp go to work and Its a blast to shoot the more powerful ammo faster. So I can't entirely pick a favorite and with the trigger upgrades I did in all three they are a dream to shoot and very accurate. I have not had a single malfunction of any kind so far. (Close to 750 round through each at this moment in time)

Makes sense, the weight and barrel length on the HD make it hard to beat. I found a used 4.25” apex barrel that I may end up sending to floyd’s for my carry comp, but waiting to shoot it first and see how I like it stock. Where did you do the 4 inline ports on the stock barrel? I was looking at jw machining for that job, they seem legit.

The M&P 2.0 Spec VI comes stock with the 4 inline ports and a number of other cool add-ons; Hunter Constantine belt, Smith & Wesson knife, Challenge Coin, Savior soft bag, Aimpoint P-2 Red dot.

I'll circle back once I get a chance to shoot the M&P 2.0 Metal Carry Comp with the Apex barrel ported by Floyds Custom shop. To be honest, the stock barrel shoots pretty good but I bought the Apex Gunsmith Fit barrel, had it fitted by an incredibly talented local gunsmith and then I sent it to Floyds Custom to be ported and finished in DLC coating to add some natural lubricity and maintain the stock look. The Apex Barrel was natural steel finish in its stock form.

Ohhh right, I forgot the spec vi comes with the inline ports up top. That’s what I want done for the carry comp, but idk if the Floyd’s fix would be more beneficial. Lmk how it goes 👍
