    My new M&P .45 midsize w/thumb saftey

    Just picked it up at Buds today. We made a trip to Lexington to hit all the gunstores and they had this in stock. LEO model with night sights and ambi safety.

    For a second I thought you were going to show how you can run over it with your truck....

    How is Bud's storefront, I've just seen them online.

    Check out 10-8 forums "Fighting Guns" section. Hilton Yam has a little "review" on the full, mid and compact M&P45s.

    Nice score. The Middy is IMHO, the best of the three M&P.45s. I have the full size, and it is my favorite, but wish the midsized would have been available when they first came out. No complaints though. The cost of ammo, on the other hand, is causing me heart palpitations.

    I've seen three different storefronts of their's going back to '02. The most recent one is on Winchester Rd. (take the first exit after I64 West splits and your on I75 South). Alot quicker to get to than the last store in Paris (outside Lexington). Its smaller by more than half the old stores size and its called Bud's Police Supply now instead of Bud's Gun Shop. From what I understood the worker telling me the other store is still open in Paris with Bud's name on it but its not owned by him anymore. He owns the website and the new store only.

    I hope to shoot this new pistol come Thurs (if I can find any more ammo!). I'll report back how it shoots.

    Such a cool little pistol. Fits in my M&P full size holsters, accurate, easy to carry. I think I need another one.

    Thanks alot, I think you pushed me over the edge finaly on the M&P. I just put myself on Bud's wait list. Now I need to clean out the rack, my Kimber looks to be in trouble.......

    Grant if you have one of the 4" I'm interested, Model: 109107 or 109157
