Smith M&P 45 fluke

[dutch]

Shoot a M&P 45c today for around 300 rounds, also for some comparision went through several hundred on an HK45, 100 on a Baer TRS, 50 on a Colt Gunsite and a 50 on a Wilson C elite. This little gun (m&p) left us speechless. This is either the biggest fluke I have ever seen or these guns are unreal as far as accuracy. This gun would print as good or better than all guns other than the gunsite and about the same as the Wilson at 30 yards. We started at 10 then 15, same lightsout accuracy, so we went to 20 then 25 then past 30 yards. Its like shooting a Ruger 22 MK3 where u actually hit what you aim at every time. This is the most accurate plastic gun I have ever seen and my question is, is this a fluke or do they all shoot this well.

The M&P .45 platform is reported by many reliable sources to be well above average in the accuracy department. My own .45's are capable of one hole groups if the guy behind the trigger doesn't suck.

I'll add that you're the first person I know who has stated it can hold its own against an HK45.

That's true. I have two Novak accurized Colt's 1911s and neither are as accurate as my Hk45. Now, overall I can shoot better with my 1911s, but in terms of raw mechanical accuracy my HK45 has been basically perfect.

Add another one. They are remarkably accurate.

Mine shoots surprisingly accurate as well. I understand that the trigger improves with firing which will make it even better. It's mounted with an Insight Procyon as my nightstand gun. The only improvement I am planning is Warren Tactical sights. I like it because it has a similar feel to a 1911 unlike other plastic pistols.

I shot the full size M&P 45 off hand and did not have that great of results but it is a nice gun. Could have been ammo but it probably was me.

I also tried the M&P compact 9mm and it shot really well once I got used to the trigger.

Picked up a M&P45c the other day and just rang it out yesterday. Quite a good shooter indeed. Easily holds the 10-ring on the NRA Timed and Rapid Bullseye Target at 25 yards offhand. No malfunctions over 150 rounds and has less perceived recoil and muzzle rise than a lightweight 1911.

A bit chunky in the slide (1/10"more than a Glock 19/23), but the grip feel beats other hi-cap pistol, and the butt is as short as a Colt Officers. I think it is winner.

+1. I was stunned the first time I rented one at my range and put some rounds through it. I decided right there that if I ever get another plastic .45, that will be the one.

I've shot M&Ps in 9 mm and in 45 ACP.

Yes, they seem unexpectedly accurate in my experience.
