Smith & Wesson recently launched the 9mm striker-fired Smith & Wesson M&P9 M2.0 Metal HD performance pistol. This new offering is the fifth and latest in the SPEC series of special edition handguns. It’s also Smith and Wesson’s first all-steel Smith & Wesson M&P9 M2.0 Metal variant, as previous models featured aluminum components. The pistol weighs in at over 37 ounces and these steel accessories, such as its optics plates and magazine well, aid in recoil mitigation during rapid shooting strings.
Keeping with its high performance, SPEC Series theme, the Smith & Wesson M&P9 M2.0 Metal HD ships with a compensator, tall suppressor height CORE green night sights and three 23 round extended basepad magazines. Besides its all-steel construction, the M&P9 M2.0 Metal HD shares the same pattern of slide serrations seen in the M&P9 M2.0 Carry Comp series. However, this new model also has additional texturing over the metal areas between its interchangeable front and rear grip inserts.
“Our polymer M&P handguns have been widely recognized for their ergonomics and reliability. We took these trusted attributes and integrated them into a steel platform to help mitigate felt-coil, allowing users to keep their pistol running flat and fast. This new Spec Series offers an advantage in today’s dynamic shooting environments while delivering a premium look and feel,” said Corey Beaudreau, Product Manager.
