New Gun

Postby Npete7381 on Sun Feb 28, 2010 6:20 pm

I was down in the Twin Cities earlier this week and I had a chance to swing by Bill's Gun Shop and shoot an M&P 45c. I've been drooling over the M&P since they came out, and after being satisfied with the range results and how the gun felt in my hand I decided to pull the trigger :D on buying one. I haven't had a chance to shoot mine yet, but that's in the plans for later this week. Here's a little gun porn for you all to enjoy.

Are you taking advantage of this?

Two free magazines or a $50 rebate. When I bought my M&P, I went with the free magazines.

Excellent choice. If I was to buy a polymer gun again, the M&P would get the nod too.

Yeah I bought the gun on Saturday so that shouldn't be an issue, thanks for the heads up though. I'm planning on going with the mags also, probably the full size ones and I'll pick up a couple of the X-Grip adapters when they come out next month.

Excellent purchase! :bravo:

My son & I were at Bill's a couple weeks ago and we tried the M&P in 9mm. I was very impressed. With the current promo, I have been thinking about picking up the M&P .45 as well. :D
