M&P 45 picture
Found this on gunbroker.com. Not really liking the 45 design. It does not wow me like the 9 and 40 did. Safety kinda looks out of place, like a last minute decision. then again, I'm sure they were not thinking of what I want when planning this design, lol.

It does look a little strange. The M&P 9 and 40 PRO 5in (SHOT show only for now) looked a little strange as well.

Could just be the angle of the picture too i guess. I was just exited to finnaly see a clear close up picture of it then was like "Eh, ok, that's not what I was expecting at all".

I'd really like to test one of these out. I know my range won't have M&P semi-auto's to rent for a long time. I'd just like to test ANY of them at this point, LOL

That is exactly what they were thinking and why that gun has a safety.

Is it just me or is there something wrong with the rail in that picture? It seems to be hanging down and away from the barrel.

it does look a little "drooped" at the end of the barrel I think it was from the little notch cut out ?
