I have been working very hard practicing reloads but have been struggling with getting consistent fast mag changes with the core. My wife got tired of me complaining and took a Dremel to one of mine today.

What prevents over insertion of a magazine, especially an extended one, in the M&P?
Likes pretty much everything in every caliber.
On my 1.0’s if I apply pressure on the bottom of the mag with the slide locked, the top round doesn’t touch the ejector with factory base pads and my TTI 140’s. I can slide a thin piece of paper between the round and ejector.
If I do the same test with TF Triple Threat or Springer 140’s the top round touches the ejector. It’s not hard contact.
I’ve done some pretty abusive slide lock reloads and never hurt the ejector, to include slamming full size mags into a slide locked 1.0 9C. It never hurt the ejector. Probably because I didn’t know better lol.
YMMV
A buddy just got the 5" 2.0 pc with the crimson trace dot. Only core model and was 759, which seemed a solid price.
The pc trigger is a bit nicer than my several thousand round standard 5". I'm certainly not one who is trigger sensitive but his pc trigger felt similar to the vp9 or i was feeling up.
The pc slide stop is nice and I'll be grabbing one.
The crimson trace looks to be a shield sms copy, auto only. He plans on getting an sro and told me i can shoot the ct until it breaks. For a cheap plastic dot, i bet it'd be alright on a 22. See how it holds up to a low round count.
His black pc gun doesn't seem to have the same flex that my fde gun does, in that when i hold my fde gun with normal grip pressure it flexes the frame enough to retard magazine insertion. Not so on his black pc frame. Not sure what's up with that.
Overall i think that the pc guns are nice enough that if i end up with another m&p it'll be one of those rather than a franken gun I'm currently running.
