Joe — I think the best advice I can offer is to read the rest of the M&P Monday posts. Everything is explained there in pretty good detail.

MHCPD — It’s an Arredondo floorplate. Used in conjunction with their “locking insert” and an ISMI extra-power spring, I’ve got a very reliable 22rd magazine. The only issue I’ve experienced so far is that the floorplate provides a little less clearance at the mag well, so if I try to insert it gently it won’t lock. This may be a quirk with the one I have, but I’ve got four more sets on the way to test further.

Todd,

What is that magazine extension? I apologize if you already covered it.

Tom — Very doubtful. Whether or not we do another 50k test will depend primarily on the manufacturers. If someone provides the gun and ammo, we’re game.

JLM — Lubing is simple, I lube any contact points and anything that starts getting shiny (which is, by definition, caused by contact). For cleaning I tend to wait thousands of rounds and then I take the gun apart and do a thorough cleaning. I rarely do a quick wipe-down type of thing.

Todd, could you run us thru your exact cleaning and lubing procedures you used for this gun?

Or in general for any semi auto pistol for that matter.

Thanks mate!

Do you think the 9L or Pro will be your next challenge?

David — To be honest, that will be up to S&W. Do you think 100k in a year would sound cool?

that holster is awesome looking! did it add much to the thickness? happy to see the pistol is still chugging along! i know 50,000 is the goal but will you take it past the 50,000?
