The Smith & Wesson M&P FPC (Folding PC Carbine) in 10mm Auto delivers serious stopping power in a compact, versatile platform. This folding carbine transforms from a 16.25-inch firearm to a highly portable package for storage and transport. Built on the proven M&P platform, it accepts standard M&P pistol magazines for seamless integration with existing gear.
What Makes This Different
The M&P FPC stands apart from traditional carbines with its innovative folding mechanism that reduces overall length by nearly half when folded. Unlike fixed-stock alternatives, this design maintains full functionality while offering unprecedented portability. The 10mm Auto chambering provides significantly more energy than 9mm or .40 S&W options, delivering rifle-like performance from a pistol cartridge platform.
Key Features
- Folding design reduces length from 32.75" to 16.25" when folded
- 10mm Auto chambering for maximum stopping power and versatility
- Accepts standard M&P 10mm magazines for parts commonality

Field performance demonstrates the 10mm's effectiveness across multiple roles, from home defense to hunting medium game. The carbine-length barrel maximizes velocity from the 10mm cartridge, achieving significantly higher muzzle energy than pistol configurations. Weather-resistant construction and proven M&P reliability ensure consistent function in adverse conditions.
