Does anyone if there are any differences between the 9L and 9L Pro Series besides a green fiber optic front sight on the Pro? I saw them at a local shop the other day. The 9L was $589.00 and the Pro was $639.00.

Picked up a Pro Series yesterday.

The Pro has a different sear which is essentially a $90 trigger job. Shortened reset and lower trigger pull, it's a very good trigger right out of the box.

The Pro also has a different rear sight in addition to the fiber front.

Pricing for the 9L in my local shop was 560. Buds has the 9Pro for 599.

is smith releasing a "pro" that isnt an "L"?

would be nice to be able to get the regular sized M&P with the "pro" trigger...

The Pro's slide is also a slightly different contour than the L, especially near the front. The front of the Pro looks (to me) more like a BHP while the L looks like a Ruger P-series.

At the moment there is no gun being produced with the PC sear except the Pro, which is only available as a 5" gun.

Todd,

Is the PC sear available as a separate part and is it a drop-in part or does it require fitting?

Thanks for your help on this.

WD -- Smith will only sell sears to qualified gunsmiths (which I think they define as "certified armorers"). I do not know whether the PC sear is on the list of things they can buy; it may be a factory-install only item.

It's a drop in part.

THAT's what I want.

That being said, how much can be done to a "regular" M&P trigger? I've only ever fired a rental M&P40 and I loved it (and I HATE .40).

If you ever discover that they do offer that particular part, please let us know. I'd love to buy a few of them and put them in my M&Ps.

JW777 ... shall do. I was at the range this evening and was again reminded just how much I like the PC sear/MA spring setup. The pull is right at six pounds, very smooth, and a clean rolling break with great reset.

If I send my M&P to the performance center for a trigger job, is this the sear that will be used?

Has anyone had the performance center do a trigger job, and if so how did it compare to say one done by Bowie tactical?

Has there been any talk of a 45 Pro ?

Or maybe an extended slide-lock like on a G34...
