| Have the new M&P 9 Pro Series fixed the problem with their accuracy. Thinking about picking one up for idpa. |

Quoted:
I just picked up a 9mm 5" Pro manufactured on 4/10/13 and the thing is a tack driver off of a rest (take me out of the equation) My only complaint is the trigger. APEX will soon have my money. That's good to hear. My 2008 vintage Pro prints like a shotgun at 50 yards. 
Wish Bar-Sto would get it together and get those barrels to Apex.  I've waited this long, what a couple more months.

I'm having simular issues. I did an in depth accuracy test last night with three different guns. My glock 17, a Taurus 24/7, and my M&P pro 9. The M&P was the least accurate by far! I bought it in Feb 2011 and I always thought the accuracy problems were me. I compete in steel/uspsa informally and just could not figure out why some of the long shots missed so badly! After last night I know something was up. Both the glock and taurus shot 1 1/2" at 40 feet and the M&P shot 4" All with the same 115gr lead ball ammo. Tried lots of different shape and weight of bullet too and the M&P just continues to disapoint!
I can't find much info about this and also I can't find much info on a good replacement barrel for it. I love the gun itself. I have about a 2 1/2 lb trigger and it points so well. Any links as I have scrolled through the 8 pages on this forum section. Anyone had a bad barrel and found a "real" fix. I don't want to send the gun to S&W as I'm afraid they will undo all the trigger work I have done and I don't want to change it all back to stock [even if I could]. Will the new barrels fix this? After spending almost $700 for this gun I am royally pissed that the barrels are crap! |
