| Why are some smith and wesson products like their AR-15's and some of their pistols dubbed M&P and others S&W? what does M&P stand for? military and police model? |

There's a history behind it.
Their Model 10 revolver was the old M&P Modern times call for modern solutions...so they upgrade the title to the new M&P line of pistols. Not only for Military and Police, but up to great standards for those who serve. I suppose when they decided to jump on the market for AR's, they added the title to that, with the same quality of title in mind |

No that was in a place and time when men were not super beings and .38 S&W would kill people,now not even the .38special
will kill people! I think the Model 10 emproved through many gen till the Mod K-38 untill the Mod 14 ,15 then the Mod 66 and then the K frame was just too small to handle the .357 Mag ! But thats where it started the M&P K-frame ! Bob |
