S&W M&P C.O.R.E 9mm

[Moore Guns]

Very nice! I have had my eyes on this one model for a while. Let us know how awesome the fast target acquisition is once you get some range time in.

I have been practicing with it a bit, without live ammunition. Dot acquisition is very easy and natural with a proper grip on the gun. I was worried I wasn't going to find the dot as quick as I'd like after a fast draw, but the ergonomics of the M&P fit very well with me. A glock with the more angled grip frame may not be as forgiving for me. I know it's irrelevant in shooting matches but I LOVE how easy it is to rack the slide on ANYTHING one handed. Makes me feel all warm & tactical inside. LoL

MG let me know how the apex ram fits, I was told they wouldn't work in the VTAC and newer model M&P's

The RDS is mounted directly to the slide, so that it's subject to the back/forth forces imparted by the recoiling mechanism of the slide? If so, is there an increased incident of RDS failure as a result of these forces?

Maybe for lesser quality optic devices but from my research Trijicon RMR is a very rugged red dot. There is no way anything can be 100% but the Trijicon warranty makes for ease of mind. I have no worries about mine...

I wouldn't put a cheap red dot on it with high expectations though. And in event if an optic failure I still have the good ole reliable irons as co-witness. I don't use it for self defense, I have a S&W 360 for that.

Are there any holsters available for these yet?

Safariland and Raven Concealment have some RMR holsters available. You'd have to check specific compatibility though.

It can fit many low cut holsters without sweat guards, one that comes to mind is the Bladetech ASR holster.
As well as Dale Fricke (as mentioned above) and Bladetech WRS.

I wonder if they sell just the slides? I wouldn't mind upgrading my M&P 40 one of these days. I love the co-witnessed RMR setup. It is definitely the future of combat handguns.
