So one of these followed me home today.
I am back on a pocket pistol kick and while I have tried many in the genre, I have never tried the S&W.
I saw a very lightly used one on consignment for a decent price and asked to look at it some quick observations:
Safety: Boo.
Hmmm feels very solidly built. Certainly a step up from the LCPs I am used to.
What the....DAO trigger! Very nice 8-9lb smooth trigger. I like that a lot.
Striker block in the slide. (very tiny).
Nice magazines.
So I had to take it home. My very good experience with the LCP MAX has restored my faith in little pistols enough to try another one.
Hopefully it will run, which is not at all a given in my experience with pocket pistols. And hopefully I can delete the safety. If both those things happen I could see this as my go to pocket gun.
