Thread: What Happened to the Compact M&P 45?

  1. #1

    What Happened to the Compact M&P 45?

    I was looking on Smith's website, and cannot find the 2.0 version of the .45 Compact.
    I had been looking last year at getting one to compliment my 1.0 Fullsize, but they were never in stock , and being further down the priority list over other wants, I just kind of forgot about it.
    However with stuff being more available and with a bit of extra cash I went looking to see what they are going for now, and apparently Smith dropped them.
    When did this happen?

    Try this?

    You can "build" it and get the SKU.

    No option for the 8 round mag, you can only get the shorter slide on the FS frame. The slightly shorter slide doesn't interest, it is the compact frame that I want.

    I don't think it was ever offered as a 2.0.

    That's too bad because that was a sweet setup.

    End of 2019, they had it in their site, and it was available online via Brownells at least for a moment. I remember because I was surprised they did a 2.0 subcompact 9mm, thinking the Shield had taken that niche.

    Yep, the 1.0 that I had handled was almost perfect. The 2.0 features would have made the only thing to change the sights. A true G19 sized reliable carry .45.

    I know it's not the version you want, but I've got a 1.0 mid-size and it's a really sweet setup.

    Yeah it's not the end of the world, just disappointing. It looks like they have cut back a lot of the non-9mm SKUs. Must be focusing production on what is in higher demand.
