Boy am I steaming!
I just bought the m&p in 9mm 2 days ago...had nothing but problems.
The slide would constantly lock back with rounds still in the mag and I have 2 failure to extracts. I shot 200 rounds of blazer brass and pmc.
I tried both of the magazines that came with it and about every 3 to 4 rounds, the slide would lock back. The failure to extract was probably due me limpwristing it because I constantly had to chamber a round when it locked back and was loosing some of my grip.
I called Smith and Wesson and they said they know of a problem with the slide lock....Larry (I think was his name) said they will put a new extended slide stop and test it to make sure that was the actual problem. He said the turn around was 10 business days.
I am really impressed with Smith's customer service. I really do want to like the m&p...the recoil feels like a .380 and it fits SO well in the hand. I paid $439 new (the one without the mag safety and lock) at my local Army and Navy Store.
Has anyone experienced problems like this before?
