Well got out wed to shoot it,Went about 1500 rounds in 2 1/2 hours.No malfunctions, the barrel was hot enough to burn a little when i was relubeing it(every 500 rounds),I was hitting where i was pointing at 5,10,15,25 yrds.Over all i think this is a VERY good pistol.. (this is comeing from a Glock guy):D thanks to Grant and other members here for turning me on to this pistol.Also, One more note ,this will NOT be replaceing my Glocks nor will i get rid of any of them,but the M&P is a damn FINE pistol.:cool:

1500 rounds in 2.5 hours?

I know...........I'm thinking.............just maybe........far fetched (or exaggerated).

When I practice rapid fire shooting drills about 250-300 rounds in an hour (I have 11 mags and 2 M&P9 pistols) during fast shooting the takedown lever burns the hell out of my weakhand thumb. When it's gets uncomfortable to hold (too hot) I switch pistols.

My finger would cramp up on me in that amount of time. I hope he had friends shooting it too!

Not to mention, how many magazines would you need?

ETA: That's 600 rounds per hour. 10 rounds a minute, average. If you stopped to lube it every 500 rounds that would eat into that time.
Not to mention taking time out to reload the magazines, hang targets, etc.

I think it is certainly possible, but it would serve no other purpose than to stress the gun.

Sorry, im not mad or worked up,no harm :), No, but i have a big A$$ blister on my right hand middle finger:( :D .I did bring gloves (did not use them) i just used some thick band aid's on my finger.My left foot hurts also from standing on that cement floor for soo long,:D but my fingers are fine.I used to shoot 4k a month ar-15/ak's(total amout, not through each,just plinking, nothing tactical);) so i am used of this much fire for that long of time,at least my finger is .. not my foot.:D
