Just back from the range this fine Labor Day.

Yet another 500 rounds down range with the M&P without a hick-up and still has yet to be cleaned. Brings me up to 2K. I think my point is made, going to clean it up now.

My Kel-Tec P3AT however is another story, fire, FTE, clear, fire, FTE, clear, etc....

Hi-ho, hi-ho, off to Cocoa it go.

My PF-9 is a gem as usual, now up to 800 rounds without a problem, it is handful but it is scary accurate. It has now garnered a spot in my right pocket bumping out my 642. That is something folks.

My P22 was another gem as usual. Fun to shoot and very accurate. I love to shoot it and I will be tricking it out shortly.

My buddy brought his XD-9 which ran flawless but I still prefer my M&P, the M&P40 feels like shooting 9mm+p. That's about it, I hope your Labor Day was fun too.

Seem like those P3's are being plagued with issues. (32acps and the 380's)
We sent in 2 that we sold already. Same sort of issues.
One did the same thing as yours, the other, well it just ate itself.
Got told that the wait was atleast 3 months on repairs due to alot of return issues.
Don't know how true it is but that's what we were told so we'll see.

I am still hoping for a good laser for my M&P .40 soon.

Don't you just hate it when a gun just shoots and shoots and shoots, and doesn't give you grief? BC.gif laugh.gif

Sellier & Bellot, UMC and Federal Hydrashock work perfectly in my P32. I have not had a single problem with more than 600 rounds of that ammo fired.

Tennessee Cartridge reloads often caused a FTE.

I am looking for a deal on a P3AT if anybody wants to sell.

Happy Holidays Everyone,

Well that's good to know about the M&P.40. I just bought one this past week. I have had the M&P,45acp for about a year and a half now with
about 6000 rounds through it and not always a good cleaning between range sessions. So I am looking forward to my M&P.40 doing the same
as my .45. A shame when you get a pistol or pistols that function as they are supposed too. Guess that just makes them reliable and fun to
shoot. have a great Holiday Season to all.



Keep your powder dry and your shooting iron ready.
