I like the HK P30 and M&P ones. Otherwise agreed. If you’re going to have a safety, It should be a large, easy to hit lever that operates smoothly but not loosely. There are far too many “Little bitty nub” safeties. Useless in a real threat situation where your fine motor coordination is all clunky.
Edit: forgot to include the P365-MS I got for my fiancée. It has a surprisingly well done safety for a micro compact. Much better than the useless “almost as small as the takedown notch” safety her Ruger EC9S has.

Bringing this thread back from the dead because this gun has tickled some of the wants I had in mind and maybe some (or one) of yall has some insight.
So I'm currently hocking my P365. Not a bad gun by any means, loved how it carried but I never really liked the way it felt when shooting it. Shooting an optic ready 2.0 Shield *really* reinforced that opinion. I tried going the optic ready slide route, but they all require the updated extractor and striker which are all but unobtanium atm. I could get it milled to update it but they're fairly shallow cuts.
Buying an OEM slide and a Wilson grip module comes dangerously close to the cost of a new gun, so i started looking into a slightly bigger optic ready option (ala Xmacro or 4" Shield) and found the Mossberg. Found some videos and shockingly, it looks like it uses Glock parts (from a 43? 48?) but I cannot get any confirmation of that.
Mossbergs online store doesn't list any replacement parts, but if this thing uses easily available/replaceable Glock parts, man I am in with the MC2C because its roughly the P365 Xmacro size; a slim Glock 19.
Can anyone chime in if this is the case?
I wondered the same thing and asked a rep at SHOT last year. He said parts were very similar but wouldn't comment further which with his expression I took to mean that connectors and some trigger parts may work. I have yet to find any confirmation though. Maybe a Mossberg forum would have clearer answers. They are pretty impressive guns from a design point and cost/value. American made, less parts than Glock but same basic operations and safety aspects, no need to pull trigger to field strip, easier to detail clean, lower optic mount not needing suppressor height sights, metal sights standard, and metal mags that drop free. The MC2C also uses full length recoil spring assembly unlike Glock 48.
Picked up a MOSSBERG MC2C last Friday on a trade at the range.
Its thin and holds 16 plus 1 with extended mags.
The trigger is a little heavy, but I like stock P30 DA/SA triggers.
looks to me the aftermarket support is just about nil.
For a summer carry around the yard that holds 17 rounds.
I ordered a talon grip and a few 16 round magazines.
200 rounds so far 30 where hollow points.
The mags load easy and seem to be well made.
I am no world class shooter by any stretch ran the wizard drill a few times the 7-yard head shot my times where 2.19 to 2.24 that's good for my skills.
For the price and what you get it seems to be so far a good deal.
If it goes another 500 rounds with no problems, I will use it in the summer.
With good ammo it seems to be a 2.5-to-3.5-inch pistol at 25 yards from online reviews ... off my range bag tried a few groups... not my best work, but they were under 4"
Found this... I have no interest doing on trigger job on it.

Will put another 150 rounds on Tuesday.

I am probably going to nab one. A fraction of the cost of the Xmacro, aside from the length of the grip (17 vs 15 rounds) its the same size. Mags don't cost a fortune (*IF* you can find them) and aren't susceptible to rusting like my P365 15 rounders. I don't need another subcompact or mouse gun since the Shield Plus and LCP Max fulfill those roles.
The idea of a $450 skinny Glock 19 that holds 16+1 with a deep optic cut from the factory is just too good for me not to look into.
That being said, the superficial side of me wants it because it's made in Texas 😅😅😅
