The Smith & Wesson M&P 2.0 has become a serious contender in the crowded striker-fired pistol market. But does it live up to the hype? In short, yes. Building upon the original M&P, the 2.0 boasts significant improvements, most notably the aggressive grip texture – providing exceptional control even in adverse conditions. The enhanced trigger is another key upgrade, offering a crisper break and shorter reset for faster, more accurate follow-up shots.
Available in various sizes and calibers (9mm, .40 S&W, and .45 ACP), the M&P 2.0 caters to a wide range of shooters, from concealed carriers to competitive shooters. Its modular design, with interchangeable palmswell inserts, allows for a customized grip that fits comfortably in hand. Reliability is paramount, and the M&P 2.0 delivers, consistently performing well in testing and real-world use. While not without its minor drawbacks (some find the grip too aggressive), the M&P 2.0 represents a solid value, offering impressive performance and features at a competitive price point. It's a well-rounded pistol that deserves a closer look.
