Smith & Wesson has just launched the M&P Carry Comp series, featuring three sizes of M&P pistols with integrated compensators.
There was a time when competitive shooting events were the only place that you’d see a pistol equipped with a compensator, but those days have passed. Now plenty of people are opting to use compensated pistols for defense as well, resulting in several manufacturers introducing models with integrated comps from the factory. With the introduction of the M&P Carry Comp series, Smith & Wesson fans have some options as well.
Coming from Smith & Wesson’s Performance Center, the M&P Carry Comp series features three sizes of M&P pistols including the micro-compact M&P 9 Shield Plus, the M&P 9 M2.0 Compact and the full-size M&P 9 M2.0 Metal. These options cover all the bases, whether you’re in the market for a concealed carry pistol, a home defense gun or something in between. All three M&P Carry Comp models feature what Smith & Wesson calls the Power Port, an integrated compensator found at the twelve o’clock position on the barrel that diverts gasses upwards to reduce recoil. Because these guns are optics-ready as well, they feature a ClearSight Cut designed to divert gasses away from the optic so you can maintain an unobstructed sight picture during fire. Other details worth mentioning include the handguns’ blacked-out serrated rear sights, night sight front sights and flat-face triggers.
All M&P Carry Comp models ship with a Performance Center cleaning kit and some magazines. The Shield Plus includes a 10-round, a 13-round and a 15-round mag and MSRP is $649. The M&P 2.0 Compact comes with two 15-round magazines and MSRP is $799. The M&P 2.0 Metal full-size model includes two 17-round mags and MSRP is $999. All three are available now.
