I just got the red/green model and it does not work with my laserlyte target bummer on that.

There is a 45 in works. The current one doesnt work in thumb safety, 45 or vtac models. Last update was januraryish so should be soon

Yes it is the same, in your case .75

Trade it in for an OBR;) As far as getting the DPMS to shoot out to 1000 meters, almost all of that is barrel and if your barrel is free floated(which it is). You might want to consider just having someone rebarrel it with preferably a kreiger, or at least a fulton armory one(around 400 dollars). Why mess around with the stock sub standard barrel? You can buy a better one for your purposes instead of recrowning, cryoing etc. Other than that reload your own ammo and you might make it. Past 800 the 308 cartridge,especially out of an autoloader is not ideal. Of course it can be done, but much easier by bolt actions and cheaper to. And significantly easier by different cartridges. The stock DPMS is the bees knees at 600 or so. Especially considering I can buy 3 for the price of one OBR, LMT etc.

I love the M&P's just because from a shooting standpoint they seem to shoot superiorly. However there are alot more problems with them than glocks i'll definately give you that. I wonder if it's more just the M&P 9/40? I 4600 rounds exactly through my 45 so far and its been fine. I guess we'll see later on. Than again ToddG's 50,000 round test is pretty interesting.

New or not they do crack eventually. It's not that big a deal. Just replace it when it happens. The newer slide though definately is a must, the old one(very unlikely that anyone still has it) is the one that was having all the problems.

I use the M&P 45 midsize for everyday concealed carry. I had the trigger worked on and its almost a necessity. You can do some of it yourself to get it down to what the 9's are stock. http://www.burwellgunsmithing.com/M&Ptriggerjob1.htm. I have the safety on mine for two reasons. The biggest one is it acts as a thumbrest and helps me achieve the same grip everytime quickly and easily. Secondly is obvious...it's an added safety. Especially since my trigger has been worked on its nice to have on a carry gun.

Heard bad things myself. But 19.99 was to good to pass up. Ordered 5 magazines with regular shipping. I was set to wait a long time for the package. It showed up in 4 days. Go figure.

That's reassuring. I know it's accurate enough to hit the A zone at 50 if I do what I'm supposed to, so its accurate enough, but its hard to get used to seeing that space when all my other guns (1911/2011) are tight as they can be and still function. Thanks. BB all polymer pistols are that way. there is alot to the argument that a loose top end is far better for reliability also.

Cool thanks for the info, i know theres definately not a huge demand for this item. I'll keep checking your site to see if it shows up.

does anyone know where to get an M&P 45 magwell that would be legal for say IDPA CDP. I noticed that it looks like langdon used one when he got third at nationals with his but i didn't get to see alot of pictures so i can't tell. I don't want to use those POS ebay ones and the open class style ones are to big. Anyone know

The picture is of the bench. This is the link to it from Lowe's. http://www.lowes.com/lowes/lkn?action=prod...&lpage=none I'm trying to figure out if I can run something simple like a lee single stage breech lock press or even the lee turret press. This is my first reloading forray and I need to do small(less than 100 rounds per week) of both rifle and pistol. So i'm going to try a simple press for a while and see how it goes.

I have a small and humble setup that I mostly use for setting up weapons. This is my weapon cleaning station/gunsmithing area. It is a cheap $85 sale prefabricated unit from Lowe's. I was looking at getting into reloading. Will I be able to use this bench to mount a single stage press? It looks that since there is no overhang, the lower portion of the press would hit the cabinet drawers no? I have no problem fabricating another bench for $30 or whatever it would just be nice to keep it all contained.

Has anyone ever encountered this http://www.dpmsystems.com/? Heres a gunblast article http://www.gunblast.com/DPM-SWMP.htm Just wondering what everyones take on this is. It's a replacement for your recoil spring and some kind of magnet. Any reviews other than the gunblast?
