None of my S&W M&P have had any problems. Several of my local departments have gone to the M&P (from Glock) and have not had any complaints. What kind(s) of failures have been experienced? Why aren't guns being cleaned? I'd love to get some more details. -Richard Shawn,

I'm glad to see it getting LE contracts, because it's a good choice. I wouldn't get rid of my Glocks to get one, but an MnP with a light and CTC grips is a really good package. I hope these departments are at least getting them with lights. I like the MnP, and it’s a good design. I’m glad to see it getting LE contracts, because it’s a good choice.
