It's funny how people down talk 45 acp . I have never seen to many people walk away from a 45 . But that 9mm it's like getting a tooth pulled (in &out ) same day. People go to the doctor for a 9mm and go to the hospital for a 45 shot 😂
Salute to all my M&P runners out here. it was one of my first one years ago. Moved to G but when that 2.0 dropped, it just shot well without me even trying.
Great video man!! Your gunna make me want to get a m&p! Put a thin layer of chapstick on the holosun before going to the range and then you can wipe it right off when you leave, and it will be clean. You need to come stay in Texas for a week and make some videos with us.
S&W’s and CZ’s are my go to. Check out a CZ when you can. You’ll be pleasantly surprised. I just need S&W to fully embrace the Metal line up all the way down to their compacts🔥
I have almost that exact same build and love it. Everything is the same except I run the tlr7 and swapped the sights out for Dawson Precision. Been carrying it for almost two years and it has definitely set a high bar when I consider other pistols wether for carry or range. 100% one of the most slept on platforms.
Got it a couple months ago. Over 1000 rds no issues at all. Great gun out of the box. My edc right now is the Shield Plus PC 4.24” but this M&P 2.0 definitely will be in my rotation depending what I’m wearing, love it.
Nice pick up. This my first gun I ever purchased when the first run came out with the hinge trigger. I have an apex trigger and love it. Definitely recommend everyone to check it out. Keep the videos coming. 🔥🔥🔥
The new MP2.0 was the first new pistol I bought in 25 years and the first non Glock pistol. I love the look and how well it perform. I added the floyds baseplates and Maxwell to it. I went with the holosun acss Vulcan. Thanks for sharing.
Hey brother don't feel bad or apologize for your opinions. They're yours! If others don't like it, that's their problem. However, I do respect the fact that you were open-minded enough to try something new. The great thing about opinions (over assholes) is the fact you can change them whenever you like. Great video!
these are super underrated guns, I work in the firearms industry and I have turned a lot of people onto these, I was always a Glock guy and still use Glocks a lot but these are better overall IMO, everybody I let shoot mine at work loves it, got over 1k rounds through mine and that newer flat face trigger has broken in very nice. GET YOU A CALULATED KENETICS PLATE TO NEGATE ALL THAT CORBON BUILD UP ON THE OPTIC LENS 😉
You're running a real nice setup. I have the same one but I carry the fullsize. Floyds custom shop flared magwell and extension are great and the customer service is best around.
I been running the Floyd’s custom magwell and mag extensions for years….Floyd’s Custom got it right for the S&W…I give you a Sub also, I try to support all the small 2A guys and gals on YT..
The 4" with the same trigger in black is my EDC atm. I prefer SA/DA guns but my P07 with CGW trigger doesn't have an optics mounting system. I'll probably switch from the S&W at some point, but it's a really good gun.
I installed my own apex trigger in my 2.0. I took the trigger out of the 9mm and put it in my 2.0 40s&w that had the hinged trigger. That apex trigger is crazy man.
Appreciate your straight analogy. Man, I'm having a hard time justifying the optics on a handgun. Point shooting is what typically "happens' in the real world if you encounter a situation. Those red dot optics add A LOT of bulk to the system.
It is more a matter of personal preference I think. Red dots do add a little extra mass to the gun. Is it a LOT? Depends on the red dot brand and model. In some instances it will be okay, others it will be a lot, in some it will be a LOT (mailbox style red dots come to mind).
Think of it this way. Not every shooting is guaranteed to be that. Sometimes they’re longer range. Look at the greenwood mall shooting or one of the many church shootings for example. Even in many everyday situations just take a look around your general surroundings and notice how wide open most places in the US are (unless you live in like Chicago or NYC for example)
Nice boi! I got a S&W M&P metal 2.0 with apex trigger, I like glocks too carry a 19 and have a 45 with an arc reactor slide and Glock performance trigger; also got a Staccato P about to build that out
My opinion is if you are going to carry. Carry a full size. The 4.25 M&P is what I carry. I don’t like Floyd’s base plates or extensions. With Floyd’s magwell you can use taran tactical +2 with Floyd’s magwell
I’m losing my alcohol belly for this exact reason 😁 I just sold my hellcat pro I rather defend my life with a full size handgun that feels more comfortable. And my goal is to be able to conceal carry a full size no problem! And so far so good with the weight loss
I am a Glock guy. I will say I always wanted the 9MM/10MM 2.0 series but I have always heard that the optics come off while shooting but if that is true I have not heard of anyone giving a remedy to fix it. Once again I don't know this for sure because I am only going by what people I actually know told me. If that optic coming off while shooting issue is fixed or if there is an actual resolution better believe I am getting them both
Dope video brother been watching your shorts keep it up just subbed also I'm getting my 19x cut for a holoson 509 x Primary arms retical this week so I'll be rocking that wit a Concled Devolpment holster and extra 17 round mag wit RIP rounds
Nice, but I prefer (opinion) the Springfield Hellcat Pro for carry. As you mentioned with your gun, the Hellcat’s trigger isn’t the best but I love just about everything else about it. Plus, it’s hard for me to ignore the 17 round capacity magazines.
@@JBshootz Same with yours. In fact, my son has the M&P Shield Plus and he absolutely loves it…also, being honest, seems more accurate than my Hellcat. Ha-ha!
I'm a big fan of the m&p 45 acp can't wait to pick one up and add to my EDC rotation but still then I will keep my ec9 in my pocket and my G2c on my hip 😅
I'll have to check one of those out. Been seeing them a while and looks nice. My experience with S&W hasn't been good however so been really hesitant about picking one up. Glad you are enjoying it!
I am satisfied with the new M&P flat face trigger as it is. Far better than the old hinged trigger and better than current Glock triggers IMO. But if you do like Apex, they are good!
I got the Spec Series (bull shark grey) with the tlr1.....trying to figure out what holosun to get that will co witness nicely with the stock tall irons that come with it..... When i get that figured out, I'm going with the Tier 1 axis elite as well....
I like everything but the Floyd’s thing.. I feel like that would come back to hurt in a situation where you may end up looking for supplies..kinda hinders availability
@@JBshootz yea I didnt want to get it online cuz m&p come with 2 15rd mag and Maryland have 10rd mag law where you cant ship any mag thats more 10rd capacity. Im sad cuz the one I got from the show didnt even come with the new flat trigger
Not sure if anyone else asked but did you put in a special request for that light option? I went on their site and was looking to order the same holster but that specific light option isn’t on there.
Hey budd, very nice setup, I still have my first gen M&P 9MM with an Apex flat face trigger 3.7 pound pull, flawless handgun. Let me ask you a question: do you carry a tourniquet?
Definitely not man I’ve got the apex kit on mine with all the lightest springs and conceal carry every single day, 2,000 round down range and not a single problem so far. It’s a massive upgrade over the stock trigger and I’d highly recommend it
my 9c apex setup is set to 2.7-3lbs feels great compared to stock 800+ rounds through the apex so far ZERO malfunctions. I trust my life with it, I will edc it once my CCL is finalized.
Been noticing a lot of people getting this S&W right now.Bruh we got the ice up here in Memphis hard.🔥🔥🔥
S&W really slept on. lol folks in the south don't know what to do with all that ice
Why not in 45
Cuz 45 is a garbage round, with modern times 9mm rounds.@@TheRealZJE313

People give me shit for carrying my M&P compact with the apex trigger. Been 3 years and thousands of rounds without a problem
Wow. I didn't have luck with apex. I had loads of light primer strikes with the apex
Same, thousands of rounds, love it! Only issue was bad ammo.
Fuck them. If it works for you that’s all that matters
Why would anyone give you shit for running that set up?
@@mmafanatic-tz5orHow did you have light primer strikes with an Apex trigger?
The M&P 2.0 is a fabulous Stryker pistol, your setup is no exception!
Nice video!
Salute to all my M&P runners out here. it was one of my first one years ago. Moved to G but when that 2.0 dropped, it just shot well without me even trying.
APEX is made for the M&P. That trigger in a M&P is as sweet as it gets. They're good in Glocks, but superb on that Smitty💪🏿

All my M&P's are absolutely solid. Even the 22 Compact! Stupid reliable, great feel in the hand, and all shoot amazingly well!

Bought one of these Christmas 2022 and it’s my favorite pistol. That deal from Academy is sweet
Need to get a dogtag plate from Calculated Kinetics.. It'll block the chamber window and keep your glass clean.
I've got one otw!
They're honestly the best for the M&P 2.0. C&H precision sucks for the M&P 2.0

I picked up the same deal at Academy too. I"m waiting on my optic plate to come in so I can finish breaking in the gun and start carrying it.
Just caught the 4” 9mm for 280 at my local pawn shop. First M&P9
Good find that's a lick
Solid choice my man. I got the 3.6 when it first came out years ago and still outshoots my glock all day.
Excellent review! I just stumbled across your channel. Figure I gone head and subscribe. Augusta GA in the house. ✌🏾

M&P 2.0 Compact is smooth. Love it
i cant wait for this channel to blow up like GH
love your discipline and mindset!
I have the same set up, tho, my Apex flatty is black. Luv the Floyd upgrades with magwell and mag extensions..
Damn!!!! This looks fire. S&W stepped their shit all the way up.
And you put the Echelon to nap???? This gotta be a contender.
Opposite. Echelon is the contender they just came out 2023. M&p been around for since 2005.💪🏼
Nice setup. If you practice a lot two things you may want to look into 1) Calculated Kinetics plate & 2) Thyrm lens covers.
Go buy a calculated kinetics mounting plate to prevent buildup on the optic lens, highly recommend.
I been running the Floyd’s custom magwell and mag extensions for years….Floyd’s Custom got it right for the S&W…I give you a Sub also, I try to support all the small 2A guys and gals on YT..
Look at the Calculated Kinetics Dogtag plate. Suppose to reduce the carbon build up on the optic.
Thanks man exactly what I was looking for
i seen a few people say that about the optic . but i love the red accents you added and my t1 arrives today ready to put in some work . nice vid homie

Good gun. Only downside is it's heavy.
I carry the 3.6. F8 sights. Apex trigger. Gets the JOB DONE
There are new ones with flat face trigger, you just got first batch that still had the curved trigger.
I had the newer flat face factory trigger I still wanted to upgrade to the apex tho
@@JBshootz oh ok then, I guess.
I'm a little older but pack a Smith and Wesson myself, model 66 combat magnum.

Deserves more subs. Here's another. Keep grinding
I subbed cuz you subbed ha. Gotta support a family man. 🙌🏻
