Something new from S&W...

The grip does seem to be too big compared to the slide, but I wouldn't let that stop me from buying it if it's accurate, reliable, shoots well, etc.

If only they chambered it in .32 ACP

If only they chambered it in 30 Super Carry

I can't argue with that.
I have to say the gun intrigues me. It seems to be, essentially, a S&W version of the Para Ordnance Warthog.

I was thinking it was more of a double-stacked SIG P938. Definitely has the double-stacking Warthog gene though!

I love my Shield, carried it daily for 4+ years, but I really want this! I would appreciate feedback from actual owners.

The more I look at it - S&W product/handling video and takedown video, the more interesting it seems to me. It looks smaller than I expected. I can see some folks might be tired of all polymer all the time, all metal frames have an appeal. Also - they seem to be including the reported fastest growing gun purchaser segment - women - with this from the spec sheet: "Interchangeable, textured backstraps including small and extra small sizes for better concealability".

Things I wonder - does it have a FP block, and having the safety-blade trigger kind of suggests some people might be expected to carry it condition 0. The weight and thickness of the backstrap would tend to reduce felt recoil...
