The Smith & Wesson M&P M2.0 Full Size delivers enhanced ergonomics and performance upgrades that address the most common complaints about striker-fired pistols. This optic-ready platform combines a 17+1 capacity with a 5-inch barrel for maximum versatility. The Flat Dark Earth finish provides tactical aesthetics while the improved trigger system reduces reset distance by 25% compared to the original M&P series.
What Makes This Different
The M2.0 generation features an aggressive grip texture that provides secure control without requiring stippling modifications. Four interchangeable palm swell inserts accommodate different hand sizes, while the enhanced trigger includes a lighter pull weight and crisper break than previous models. The optic-ready slide accepts popular red dot sights without requiring additional machining, and the enlarged trigger guard accommodates gloved operation.
