Smith & Wesson M&P 45 (.45ACP) Pistol Bench Review

[xteamxtreme222]

Also im sure your aware but just in case, you can see through that hole in the top of the slide, no need to pull the slide to check for a round chambered as you can see the brass. Also there is a tool concealed in the grip that you can use to pull the lever to disassemble if you wish to do it that way. Also allows you to change the grip to a different size.

[xteamxtreme222]

Good review. Just a couple tips, you can disassemble the weapon without pulling down that inner lever. All you have to do is pull the slide release down and pull the trigger as with some other weapons. And a quick alternative to pushing the lever back after reassembly is to simply insert the clip, this will drive the lever home. Just food for thought.

Just a pointer, if you put the magazine in after it is put back together the hinge will engage itself...over all an excellent video man keep em coming

[CaptainBerz]

@Jmills0550 Interesting, thanks for the tip and for watching..

[MrSeanselleck]

has any one had issues with this gun NEEDING to be kept clean? I shot 200 rounds through my gun in one day, and the last 100 or so rounds drove me nuts. Around 100ish rounds my gun would lock back after only shooting 2-5 rounds in each mag. That night I cleaned it well, and the next day it shot great! Highly accurate. I thought I was the only one having this issue, but others at the range that day made comments about the mag not staying in the gun and sliding open when shooting.

[olson0343]

Hey just wondering if you ever looked into getting the 14 round clips??

[CaptainBerz]

@olson0343 This is my dads, but if my memory serves me those are the ones with the baseplate, making the handle longer? I am not a fan of that unless in a serious situation, should be able to get the job done with the 10 +1, LOL. I think they run between $23-$38. I have talked to my dad about them a while ago, if he does I will make a video.....

[olson0343]

@CaptainBerz Lol true if you cant do the job in 10 shots you shouldn't have a gun at all lol. I'm just debating on either getting this or the Springfield XD 45 ACP. Whats your opinion?

[CaptainBerz]

@olson0343 Now that is tough, I would say go check them both out. Each is great. The m&p I think is cheaper, I think the xD holds more ammo, may be wrong. Best thing would be to go to the range, give someone some money to shoot one or rent one and try em out. I have not shot an xD yet, so I cannot recommend one over the other. Sorry...

[MrSeanselleck]

14 sounds fun, but some police departments already carry 31 rounds with them (3 mags of 10). don't see why one needs more than 2-3 shots in most situations, but nice to have the extra. Also, in the video when the gun is being striped, there is a tool the gun has built into it. Eject the mag, and twist the little nub at the bottom of the stock, then pull. you can use that tool to flick the little arm down too.

2:52 ...thats some gun safety right there

[CaptainBerz]

@drummermarlito1 It was safety checked in the beginning fag...Sphincter says WHAT? LOL!

[drummermarlito1]

@CaptainBerz Wow, a fag..I didnt know we were being children.

[CaptainBerz]

@drummermarlito1 :P

[ixVENGEFULxi]

right on, nice gun!

[CaptainBerz]

@ixVENGEFULxi Thanks, my dad loves this gun. I have shot it a few times and it is nice....

[PrideFighter169x]

@CaptainBerz I have two of these fine weapons I find it easier to drop the magazine by using the middle finger of my grip hand. Seems easier that way, I don't have to adjust. Hope it helps.

[CaptainBerz]

@PrideFighter169x Will do, I have not shot it in a while but will give that a whirl next time...

[sailingmanuel]

I was with you in till you had to get out a screw driver. lol

[CaptainBerz]

@sailingmanuel Just talking beginner, never know who is watching... LOL!

[TheDishD]

top vid, great weapon, the M&P 9mm is only one avaible here (10 rnd mags, max cal. 357 120mm barrel grrr) iv fired that a lot great gun, good to see the .45 version, best wishes brother take care

[CaptainBerz]

@TheDishD Thanks for the comment, yea they are something to look into from what I have heard..

[razback14]

I've got to look into these more. I have heard good things about them....

[CaptainBerz]

@razback14 Yea, seem to be a workhorse....

[YokoWenis]

I'm getting jiggy with a Mr. Smith for my next firearm purchase. I'm thinking M&P40 Pro Series w/ 4.5" barrel.

[CaptainBerz]

@YokoWenis Sweet! I am looking into a Glock 20, want to get a 10mm...

[YokoWenis]

@CaptainBerz Start saving for 10mm ammo, if you can find it.

[badjeep02]

@CaptainBerz I recommend a Glock 29. They're fully supported by lone wolf just like the glock 20 and can take the 20's magazines. I Love mine. You can carry it very nicely and the recoil is not near as bad as people say.

[pjicleanair420]

great vid, nice .45!

[CaptainBerz]

@pjicleanair420 Thanks, yea it is a nice pistol.....

[NeverEnuffAmmo]

Great review bro, I love the M&P!!

[CaptainBerz]

@NeverEnuffAmmo Thanks man, yea it is a great option....

[DocTacDad]

★★★★★ Thumbs up for the M&P

[CaptainBerz]

@DocTacDad Yea, I think it is something to look into if you are looking to get into the 45 game... Thanks...
