So I went to the range today and normally I go in, rent the .40 XD and disapear for a while. Today I go in and it turns out the rental XD is out on the range. I ask well then what's new in the case? The range queen hands me a S&W M&P in .40sw.
So I put 100rounds through it and honest to god I HAVE NEVER SHOT GROUPS THAT TIGHT. I was consistently putting 5 rounds under a quarter at 8yrds. I know thats not great by some of the standards on this board but it amazing for me.
So I went back out (to get more ammo because I was so happy) and got another box of .40sw and chatted with the range owner for a while. She said that my experience was pretty typical and that a lot of people love the gun, she mentioned she didn't like the trigger on it but was a solid gun. Then she mentioned to me that the M&P's are the old S&W Sigma's with some minor modifications. She also said that the Sigmas have had tons of reliability issues. Now I didnt have any problems with this gun but am wondering are M&P's considered reliable? And are they really just re-branded sigmas?
