I wanted a rifle like this but didn't want to buy kel-tec. Thank you S&W!
Ditto, food things come to those who wait.
I agree. The kel-tec looks like a Frankin-gun to me! Stupid as hell. But you can field strip it with a screw driver!
@@solomonmarcus5496 Oh...Yum! 🌭🍻
The Kel-Tec is literally the same thing it just folds differently. I have the Gen 2 of the Kel-Tec and it's phenomenal. So far the only better thing that this gun offers is that it folds sideways not up. 🤷
Exactly loved the keltec concept but wanted it made by Glock.
Comes out in 10mm. I’m in!
You want to lug 10mm all over if you’re bugging out?
Same here in .45 acp
Picked one up last week. $550. Shoots great.
Great deal.... Got mine for $619 which was a deal by me 😊
Great price!
Where for $ 550. I’ve only seen for $649
Love that it folds sideways instead of over the top .
It would be more compact if it did fold over the top!! As to why Keltec does!! But not in if you have an optic mounted.
@@enricomandragona163 That’s what I was thinking.
@@enricomandragona163 sub2k is more compact with either mount but I bet the s&w could be more reliable
I want one, I’ll make a good travel companion when trucking across America.
@@enricomandragona163 but then you have to take your optic off and lose zero
I just got an Equalizer. Then discovered they have a .350 Legend revolver... Now a folding PCC! Just take my credit card S&W!
If they made a model chambered in 5.7, it would be a perfect pair for their new 5.7 M&P.
I’m hoping they make one of those soon as well
Or 10mm for that matter
Being that 9 mm is more common than the other two it's smart on S & W to try it out on 9 mm first & see how it performs
@@enricomandragona163 no doubt. I would expect 9mm to be manufactured first, but 5.7 and 10mm, would be cool considerations for the future.
@@TheSonsOfSimon I would think 5.7 before 10 mm 🤷
Thank you for your videos. I appreciate you educating us. I bought my FPC and I added Ruger flip up sights and a Vortex red dot. I took it to the range yesterday and I ran 200 rounds of 115 and 124 grain Federal FMJ. It ran flawlessly. I shot at 25, 50, then 75 yards. I hit the red and 9 circle every time. This weapon is a very nice flat shooter also. Thanks to you, I was able to properly strip it down, clean it and put it back together again. I love my FPC. It’s a very fun weapon.
I think the major benefit over the keltec is the fact that you can fold it with an optic on it
HUGE benefit!
That, and it just seems built better. Not a bunch of metal screws holding plastic together.
There's the Mcarbo folding latch mount for the sub2k but it's $150 just for that, which bumps the differential cost right up to the FPC. Not to mention how it's just better to get a product specifically engineered to do something upfront rather than a rubber-band type of add-on fix.
This could go places, Sootch! Think I'd like to see 10mm, .45 ACP and perhaps a 5.7X28mm versions of this. I think that would be a major Home Run for Smith & Wesson if the price is right and it's reliable.
A 10mm would be AWESOME!!!
High point has come out within this year's ago
How would you lock the 10mm? How much more would you be willing to pay for the locked version?
@@BcFuTw9jt same exact way the 9mm locks? I may not be understanding, so if I’m not please inform me. I’m an inventor that comes up with different designs for firearms to work better, so I am always looking to learn something new. Thanks
I'm pretty sure a glock .40 caliber pistol can be turned into this
Hope a version in 10mm comes out.
Eezactly !
I love mine!!! Few hundred rounds and no issues! A little heavy, but helps with stability!
It lightens up with every shot fired downrange…..btw, who would shoot ‘uprange’?!
Not near as heavy as the Ruger PCC
Just picked mine up for 599 and love it and so glad I bought it!
I went ahead and ordered one for $637 shipped. So far the reviews have been favorable. Thank you for this video.
Nwver heard of kel tech
Well done, Sootch. Another excellent production. Some years ago, the 2000s, and during my Texas law enforcement career in Houston's most gritty side, another deputy asked me, "Could you explain why I might need a rifle in a pistol caliber?" I explained, "Imagine you could deliver the power of your pistol at much greater range and with much greater accuracy. That would be ideal in a hostage situation or when you face shooters in a populated setting." This Smith & Wesson approach is appreciated and, of course, respected. Still, there are other carbines out there including the old Marlin Camp Carbines which never got a fair test in my opinion. For law enforcement and others in high level security endeavors, a carbine in the same caliber and using the same magazines as their duty pistol that is ALSO easily broken down and stowed would be, I imagine, a great answer to a common problem.
However, I would argue that a rifle sold WITHOUT sights is not a rifle at all. Smith erred, I believe, for not including, at the very least, a set of low cost easily detachable sights made of some high density plastic. Lastly, this carbine is not designed for military conflict but rather the domestic and LEO market where pricision is a higher concern than capacity although capacity is VERY important. Thus, I criticize, although not vehemently, the design of the spare magazine release, in the shoulder stock, which will not allow for the shooter to stay on target and draw another magazine and place it in battery using only the off hand. Clearly that is a two hand operation.
Thanks Lauro! I appreciate the points you made about the FPC. Sights would definitely be a huge plus and the spare mag release isn't ideal for a quick reload. The Ruger PC9 would be a good comparison though, since it's a break down carbine. Might make a good comparison. The Kel-tec Sub 2000 has to have a trigger upgrade to be a serious consideration. Take care Brother
@@sootch00 Many thanks. Look me up when you are in the Houston area my brother.
Great points Lauro. Unbelievable that Smith & Wesson would MSRP a firearm at $600 plus, without sights, that you can't really shoot right out of the box. I mean c'mon, this wouldn't even be expected from a low cost manufacturer never mind Smith & Wesson for crying out loud. Kel-Tec cheaped out on a few things as well but at least it's an accurate shooter right out of the box.
You dont have to carry the stock charged with two magazines there are magazine holders for belt.
True, but if they went through the trouble of designing the mag storage into the stock it should be a one hand operation to get it out.
I purchased one for $600 shipped about 4 weeks ago. It was considered a pre-order since they are flying off the shelf. Took 2 weeks for them to get one to ship. I got it about 8 days ago and finally got to shoot it. I set it up with Ozark Armament Flip Up Iron Sights and a Sig Sauer Romeo5 1x20mm Compact 2 Moa Red Dot. I did disassemble as Sootch showed and it was easy. Took to the range today and must say I am thoroughly impressed. 25 yards had many holes touching and at 50, less than 1 inch groups with cheap ammo. I even shot at 100 and 200 yards with good hits once I corrected for the drop. Recoil was minimal. It didn't sound like shooting a 9mm, which make sense because it was being shot thru a longer barrel. I can't describe it but it was an oddly muted sound. I have been looking for a while and was preparing to purchase a pistol caliber carbine and I am so glad I delayed. Once I saw the S&W FPC, I know that it was the one I wanted. Now waiting on 10mm and 45 ACP. No misfires with cheap 115 grain ammo
If one was to chop the barrel and rail right after where the charging handle latches, how long would the barrel be? I'm thinking a setup like the Sub CQB, with a fixed 9mm suppressor so the overall length is the same and you could cross state lines without a Form 20.
Thorough and so well done as always by Sootch. Thanks so much for the disassembly and reassembly footage
Very straightforward, unbiased and informative review! Thanks for posting!
Thanks for the review Sootch, and especially for the hint re. lubrication of the bolt system. The charging handle required quite the effort (taking two fingers) to charge when new new out of the box. I field stripped, cleaned, and lubed and now I can charge using one side only. Your video is the only one I have seen that covers disassembly. Kudos!
Does the charging handle reciprocate?
do you know of any videos of how/where is best to lube?
great content best review: I have watched I don't know how many reviews of the S&W FPC. untill I watched you review, you are the only one to do a thorough review including field stripping of the FPC. thank you. everybody else just showed it off, showed the basics, and fired a few rounds that's about it. you did everything that should have been done plus some. great job awesome review
Another well done video.
I really appreciate that you give a field strip on your reviews (the ones I have watched anyway).
I also appreciate that you shoot the guns bare handed (like normal people do) and don't wear "gardener's gloves" and then complain about the controls.
Your videos are always informative and truly a pleasure to watch.
as usual quality production sir. Thanks for showing disassembly as most just show them shooting it
That’s one nifty piece. I hope the future of firearms is as exciting and innovative as it’s appearing to be!
Just purchased mine last week for $600, a good deal for a great little gun, already run 300 rounds of 115g and no issues at all, loved the fact it came with the (1) standard and (2) extend capacity magazines- love s&w
I must say you have the best videos, exceptional explanation and attention for detail.
Hopefully a 10mm is right around the corner from this release.
FPC would definitely on my list. I love how it is considering the usage of same magazine and also the ability to fold the carbine as well
This is my first folding rifle. It's awesome!
@allaboutsurvival did you get one yet?
One of the best reviews on this new product I’ve seen thus far. 👍
Definitely pretty cool , S&W realized pcc are a hot market and wanted to give their customers something.
Bought the FPC yesterday after seeing this video. Yet another Sootch00-inspired purchase (probably my 4th or 5th such purchase). $649 is a bargain for this clever, well-made new offering from Smith & Wesson. Great comprehensive review video as always.
Sootch, Great video! Especially with your detailed explanation of how to breakdown and reassemble this firearm. I recently bought one and couldn't have cleaned it without watching your video first for instructions on breakdown/reassembly. This is a solid carbine. My wife and son both love it as well after shooting it. Thanks for the work you do on presenting these videos. I've learned a lot just watching you shoot and listening to your explanations. You're number one in my book! BTW, I bought my FPC AFTER watching your video several times! 🙂
Sootch00 is the best gun reviewer ever. Makes sensible comparisons, goes over the firearm's features very thoroughly, tests reliability and accuracy, and much more. Thanks for everything my friend!!!
Wow ! What a thorough and highly informative review, I literally have no questions. I watched two other reviews before I watched this. one reviewer didn't even know the correct way to release the rear magazine holder.
Thanks for taking the time to do your homework and research .
I know where I will check first for reviews.
Thanks God Bless.
I'm not a PCC fan, but because this firearm appears to be reliable I would like to have this firearm. I would really like to have it in 10mm
Agreed, 10mm would be cooler. Or 5.7
9mm with a long barrel like that it’s pretty dang powerful. Cheap ammo, easier to suppress, and having ammo that matches your EDC, it’s great on a shit hit the fan scenario.
I carry S&W already, definitely getting this! 😅
10mm yeah baby!
10mm and a 5.7 would be awesome
5.7 -great ballistics and improved capacity
I didn't like the Kel-tec no red dot but the S&W FPC I will be getting. Way to go S&W
Thank you for showing how to detail strip this. There’s not many videos out there showing this.👍🏻👍🏻
I have a Keltek 2000 in Glock 19. Out of the box i was doing 2 inch group headshots at 100 yards with Golden Saber 124 grain. Never had a problem with it.
IMO I think u made the right choice. This is a SHTF gun made for get up and go if the SHTF and the most mags your going to see laying around if SHTF are Glock mags. IMO I think u made the right choice with the Keltec Sub 2000. I'm going to purchase the Keltech for that reason and install Mcarbo upgrades. Not only that the Sub 2000's are going for under $400 now with a mail in rebate.
Problem with keltec is two fold. (1) eventually the plastic trigger links will cause failure, especially in sub freezing temperatures (2) you can't mount a dedicated optic on it without some goofy mount that pivots the optic off to the side when folded. I like the sub 2000 however this is a superior design
@@Yelladog78 Keltec just came out with a generation three sub 2000 that has a rotating barrel where you can keep a fixed optic mounted on it when it is folded.👍
@@WARPSPD very interesting I'll have to check that out, thanks for the info
It amazes me how much innovation we still see from the industry. All for it.
Uh the sub 20000 did this years ago cheaper and better
@@missouripatriot6926 yeah but this one folds to the left 👍
Thanks for being one of the first GunTubers to cover this Don. Thorough as always!
Phenomenal and thorough review of S&W M&P FPC - I also enjoyed your bloopers at the end.
LOVE IT! always loved the sub2000. I hope they come out with drum magazines for this
Like that it can be folded with red dot scope in place.
I've waited along time for this, commenting for years for S&W to do something like this, my dream comes true, not to many I can say that has ever happened, I can wait to get mine.
Just picked one up today at the Cabela's after watching this video. What a great firearm this is!!! Thanks for the video!!!
Good video thank you. One of the biggest things this does for me will be the availability of higher capacity of magazines for my pistols.
Thanks Keith. The extra mag capacity is a bonus for sure.
Nice to see new guns , but nothing will replace my mcarbo keltec sub 2000
Just bought mine the other day, I love it! The charging handle is my only gripe, and it's pretty minor overall. But I will seriously throw money at a 10mm version of this!
Saw this a few months ago and had to endure a long wait. Ordered it today when it came out up here in Canada. Now i’m back rewatching.
If the Trailblazer kept it's "folded look" and just functioned like that, like as a bullpup, I think it'd be way cooler.
I do like the Smith though. Pretty awesome.
Thank you! The first reviewer to do a disassembly.
I’m sold! Great information Sootch! Just ordered one from the local sporting goods store! Can’t wait til it arrives!!
Just ordered 3 more 23 round mags for this fpc 👍🏾
Now i can load up with 133 rounds in 1 shooting.
Magpul makes 32 round mags for the SW FPC.
@@stevetsataros6511 made by Promag
That was one of the most thorough reviews I've ever seen. I had questions about the firearm, and every single one was answered. Man, this helps the consumer a lot. Thank you
I agree. I always look forward to his reviews. Does a great job every time.
You always come up with all the cool stuff. Love you brother!
Thanks, esp for breakdown. Just got mine love it. The build quality makes sub 2000 seem like a cracker jack box gun! For those dwelling on glock mags…..if you need more than 60 rds, you are not in home or personal defense>>>>you are in a ‘war’ zone, good grief!
I have a half at least a half dozen mags for everything. It makes for easier times at the range w/ more time shooting and less time reloading.
Agreed, I purchased a Smith FPC and have no regrets, I haven’t shot it yet. You can tell the quality of the two by looking at them. I’d take a Smith anyday And I do own Glock and Glock mags.
Love the content. Thanks, Don!
Thanks Brother!
Excellent review , I just picked mine up yesterday and I am glad I found this video.
Thank you for an excellent review. Been wanting the Keltec but I will opt for the FPC because I like the design and quality.
One of the most beautiful and creative designs I've seen lately, well done s&w
S&W makes excellent guns, i wish that they could bring back the 5900s series.
@@joaopedrobaggio4475 i agree, beautiful series.
Sorry it's ugly
@@waterhead1359 your opinion of course, i respect.
@@waterhead1359 I'm an exterior car designer and appearance is important to me. I understand what you're saying. I'm one of the most visually shallow people on earth when it comes to appearance. But in this case, function is more important. It works and it folds. That makes it beautiful.
I bought the Keltec a couple of years ago, you were spot on. I purchased and installed all the Mcarbo parts including the optic mount and it makes it a pretty nice pcc. The parts cost about what the sub 2000 cost. Hindsight being 20/20 the Smith and Wesson seems to be the way to go. Great video sir. I will probably be buying one when they hit the stores.
doesnt take glock mags. ill stay with my sub 2k

@@lostprophecy7593 check out the b&T ghm9, love mine. nails everything. so fun to shoot. it takes glock mags
Same here...love my Sub 2K. Zero malfunctions and eats everything I've put through it. I like the idea of the S&W version....might have to buy one as another trunk monkey.😂
was going to get the CMMG but after seeing this one, this is the winner
I have the Ket-Tec and LOVE IT! And... I want this one too!
Another nice review. I believe that the Ruger PC Carbine will be the cross shopping option. Being a leftie I will have to get the Ruger plus the Ruger takes Glock magazines and like a lot of people I have many Glock 17 and 19 magazines.
I’ve watched several reviews of the same firearm this morning. Yours is the best by far. Your camera work, lighting, and explanations are excellent.
Thanks for showing how to field strip. As always great review
Excellent video! Clear, concise, function review. I have been looking various PCC’s but I think this will fit the bill. This is compact and I won’t have to pay the $200 SBR tax as with others.Thank you!
Awesome firearm!! Kudo's to S & W !!
I'm sure none compliant States won't see it.
How about a test on Henry's new 9 mm carbine Sootch , Homesteader.
Homesteader Review is coming up. Thanks Enrico!
@@sootch00 thanks for all you do sootch. Be of good courage 🤣
You don’t disappoint my favorite last 2 minutes of your videos 🫣😅🖖👍
Great video. I’m still sticking with the SUB2 for the Glock magazines and the MCARBO upgrades. The mcarbo upgrades greatly improve performance and reliability. I’ve tested. Still a nice option from S&W
IMO I think u made the right choice. This is a SHTF gun made for get up and go if the SHTF and the most mags your going to see laying around if SHTF are Glock mags.

@@roadking681 yeah I have a custom Glock 19. So the Sub2000 Glock 19 version was a great choice. The best upgrade for it I can recommend is the stainless steel feed ramp. Reliability is very high after that install. Others I got are the metal sights and trigger and trigger guard. To me it’s the perfect truck/SHTF gun.
You can use Glock mags in the Ruger pcc also !!!
Please give me a break. I just ran to the gun store to buy my brand new Smith & Wesson M&P 5.7 after your review. Now this nice carabine ..... I have to try it. It looks really nice, and your review is excellent. Thanks
Super video and thank you for making it clear and simple. I love your videos each and every one of them. Great man.
Pretty cool , i have the Ruger pc carbine and the charger. Hands down my favorite guns to shoot. Might need to get one of these and compare!!!
I need to grab a Charger 9mm! I have the .22 LR model, it rocks. And the PCC.
@Chris Sewell i put a binary trigger in mine , its a blast !
@@ericlaplante7326 Now your freakin talking!
Everytime I buy a Keltec SW releases their version.
Good review. I appreciate you showing the break down process. Thank you.
It looks like a all around user friendly firearm and great for a travel friend.
I like the design over all, looks like they designed it with a lot of aftermarket potential, if these get popular enough…I can see someone developing a hydraulic buffer for it.
Great review, Sootch! I’m starting to realize something about S&W - it almost feels like they’re starting to go into all the different firearm nooks and crannies and putting their own spin on it. The 5.7, the M&P 12, this one, the list keeps going. These were already around and made by other firearm companies, but Smith must have gotten the idea to go into those holes to create a similar design so they can basically control the market from most all aspects. It’s a smart move from Smith and I’m excited to see what else they come up with!
Thanks LO! I agree. No reason not to capitalize on existing markets that have proven popular. Plus adding S&W quality.
Well yeah agreed. If they want to stay current with the times & not fall behind...
Yep. They seem to gotten on the band wagon with Ruger. Making new gun designs. Which is great for everyone!
love smith and wesson, especially the m&p 2.0, i have 2 full-size m&p 2.0's, both chambered in .40 s& w obviously, i wish their new all metal m&p 2.0 came in .40 s&w
@@ethanmac639 why .40 obviously? I own a .40 Glock too
Great review. I got one and I love it. Put a Sig Sauer Romeo5 on it, and it is spot on…
thanks for your reviews. As LEO I appreciate your input on all you do.
I had always wanted a Kel Tek Sub 2000. But I do like the side fold instead of a vertical fold. Still, I wish that it came with iron sights or more room for a rear sight. But I still might opt for this over the Sub 2000.
@HappyAmerican 32 What I mean is that I would prefer a more rail to the rear for a more traditional sight length. I don't want AR style iron sights up front like that. I was already planning on doing what you suggested(though I was going to go with Midwest Industries low profile flip sights over Magpul.) But I just wish it had more rail to the rear is all.
@Red Rider7 I am aware of all of this. I literally spent years researching parts because it was a rifle that always intrigued me since the first gens. Still, I would rather not deal with the weird red dot mounts, so I am probably going to go with S&W if they offer this in 40 S&W.
@@leroyatleroys you prefer.40?
@Jay F! It's more specific to this rifle. I carry 9mm with all my EDC guns. However, I really want this gun for a backpack setup when I am in wilderness. Just in case. But since there are lots of different kinds of animals, I want this rifle to be able to handle most encounters. It won't be an ideal bear gun. But it should be able to get the job done. I would rather have it in 10mm. But since these foldable rifles are not offered in 10mm, I have to work with the options available. The hottest .40 S&W load I can find is Underwood JHP that has a muzzle velocity of 1300 with a 150gr projectile. That is reaching lower 10mm velocities. So if I run it through a rifle length barrel, I can maximize its powder burn for even higher velocities while sending a fairly heavy round down range. Faster and heavier than what 9mm can do, even with +P. With extended mags, I don't even have to worry about if I will have enough rounds. It isn't ideal for hunting or anything. But it offers a good level of protection beyond what my S&W M&P 2.0 in 9mm can do. I know a lot of people hate on .40. But it isn't a bad round. And it is super cheap. I feel that every round has a place. I feel that .40 S&W with the right ammunition can really shine in this kind of setup.
@@leroyatleroys I see!
Thanks
OMG I have to have that! I have an M&P 15, 9mm and Shield. I wish they would have come out with that a couple of years ago. I bought the Ruger PC-9 Carbine, which is great, but I still would have bought that M&P instead.
Oh crap Jeff, you can have both!
Great review, I bought one about 2 months ago + added Holosun 403B. I’ve put probably 200 rounds through it, I’ve only had to torque the red dot. Shoots smooth, feeds well, it’s S&W, when you grab fully loaded you have 63 bullets (without grabbing belts, bags or boxes) on the pistol.
Easy to store, quick for action, light weight, cheap & commonly available ammo.
New sub here. I just brought this home with me after seeing Jerry's video last week.
Your review is saved for my first break down, Thank you!
Que maravilha de carabina.
Love to see this in more calibers like .45acp and the rail extended all the way over the upper receiver. But awesome regardless
The gain in velocity with 45 acp isnt worth it. 40S&W isnt much better. 10mm and 9mm gain much more velocity from longer barrels.
@@Gieszkannecan't be factual with people like this. They all want 10mm from a unlocked action for the same price
Looks like a great gun with good features, nice to see S&W bringing something to the market that modern shooters want.
Kinda like keltec?..
Looks great, looking forward to seeing them in the local gun shops. I love the M&P series pistols. Looks like a good compliment to my to my M&P9
One additional advantage of the M&P FPC over the Kel-Tec Sub2000 is that you can keep the optics mounted on top even when folded, because it folds to the sides. Unlike the Sub 2K which folds over the top.
Keltec did this like 15yrs ago lol just like the p11 they are ahead of the game by decades
Absolutely...but I'd take the S&W quality though lol.
True although the over the top fold was the bad part of the design. Limits optics
Keltec gets no love for the p11...micro compact...way before others brands even thought about making small 9mm
The Keltec is a POS
@@RpMcMurphy_ right...i wanted one but didn't want to get on then hv to put another $350 in it to get it up to par....
Just disassembled mine using your video. Guessed at where to oil it (I would like to see a cleaning video). It wasn't that difficult to break down and I'm sure will get easier with practice. It's hard to find these in stock they sell out as soon as dealers get them in. This gun shoots great, I put a Romeo 5 on it initially that I took off another gun amazingly it didn't need any adjustment. I really like this gun and it is a great companion to my M&P 2.0. Great review, thanks Sootch!
As Always, well done, Sootch ! Interesting firearm.
it looks like something boba fett would carry
It definitely has a MG42 look to the receiver where the stock flows up to the barrel.
I'm a S&W fanboy. I carry the SHield and have the M&P 9 full size for home. I'm a big believer that trigger pull is essential to great shooting. I like that this has the same trigger as both of my pistols and can use the magazines from the full size. I like this over an AR because I can throw it into a bug-out bag and go without having to pack several types of ammo (though I will keep +P for the stopping power. I've always thought that if I need an AR in my sleepy neighborhood then I probably need more than an AR because the situation is indeed dire. Thanks for the video
Never told another man this, your excitement for firearms really tickle my man parts lol. Love the content
Lol! Thanks... I guess! 😂
I also love this channel, i am very pro-gun, unfortunately i live in Brazil.
Better late than never, but certainly late. If S&W had come out with this 6 years ago I would have went with it instead of what I did. I am now too vested in Glock and Kel-Tec Sub 2000-2 with MCARBO upgrades to do this now. Grab and go with 63 rounds in 3 mags all contained is impressive.
I have a Shield that I carry. I have been waffling on what platform to get and wanted a foldable carbine but the sub-2k has its issues. I wanted the interoperability with a weapon that can be carried as if I am I can legally justify carrying full mags but have an optic that stays true to zero.
Excellent
@@mro2352
Shield mags won't fit. You'll need m&p2.0 mags. That said, they're good mags.
IMO I think u made the right choice. This is a SHTF gun made for get up and go if the SHTF and the most mags your going to see laying around if SHTF are Glock mags. IMO I think u made the right choice with the Keltec Sub 2000. I'm going to purchase the Keltech for that reason and install Mcarbo upgrades. Not only that the Sub 2000's are going for under $400 now with a mail in rebate.
@@roadking681 Thanks. I recommend you buy direct from MCARBO, and you still get the $100 rebate check. They install all their standard upgrades, so it is done and done right.
Looks like an ideal "support weapon" (especially with extra ammunition) along with safety being promoted: don't be surprised if Smith and Wesson have to make extra to keep up with supply - creativity at it's best - no wonder they're still in business!.
Excited about this one. Finally got one ordered.
SmithTec? KelWesson? 🤔
SmellTec 2K...
At least you can keep the optic on while it's folded.
They should make one that takes Glock magazines :D
Picked one up 🙌🎉, great video and disassembly instructions very helpful. Ty
