Recent manufacture M&P 9 accuracy

[Schulze]

Wow. I am now dreading shooting some new M&Ps I just got.

I am also interested in the outcome, please keep us posted.

I will need to shoot my M&P past 25yards next time I hit the range.

I decided to try to troubleshoot three of the M&P pistols that were not shooting yesterday, and in response to several suggestions, wanted to test them with different ammo. I picked Federal HST 124 +P and Federal AE 147 grain ball as the additional loads, since they seemed to span the range of 9mm loadings.

1) M&P Pro, (was shooting 6-8 inches yesterday with WWB). First shot the AE 147 and got a nice 3.5 inch, or smaller, group. Repeated with the 124 +P HST and got an equally nice group. Repeated with WWB, to make sure it wasn't me, and got an 8 inch group.

2) M&P 9 FS, no TS (was shooting 8 inches yesterday with WWB). Neither the 147 AE or HST shot much better than the WWB.

3) M&P 9, no TS with HD sights and DCAEK (was shooting 8 inches yesterday). The HST shot closer to 5 inches, and the AE ball was just as bad as the WWB. I then grabbed a barrel out of a full size 9 that was shooting about 3.5 inches or better yesterday, and repeated the tests. The pistol still shot lousy, even with the "good" barrel.

Accuracy problems with the M&P 9FS are pretty well-documented.

Perhaps you should read the whole thread before spouting off.

I guess I got lucky with mine. I can shoot silver dollar groups at 15 yards all day. I did have to send the thing back when I first got it because the front sights were overmilled and they drifted when firing.

My bodyguard 380 is at s&w for the third time rigjt now for consistant light strikes. I have asked for a refund or replacement.

I won't be buying smiths anymore since everything I buy has to go back.....

I read the whole thread.

Watching his youtube videos and reading his pasts posts of where he trained and how well he did, I disagree that he's the weak link.
