NEW: Smith & Wesson M&P 2.0 – Available in Canada?

Smith & Wesson just released the new M&P 2.0! I for one am very excited about it. I have an M&P and am looking forward to shooting the upgraded version. I haven’t seen any retailers in Canada carrying it thus far but I am sure its on its way. I noticed some great sale prices on the original Smith & Wesson M&P over Christmas so I figured something was coming. I have included the info directly from SW below.
As far as I can tell there are many upgrades such as better trigger (big plus), more aggressive grip, more grip options, longer internal slide rail, more ambidextrous features…
I don’t know what price the M&P 2.0 will go for in Canada and am not sure if it will come in a range kit as the current model does. I assume it will be around the same price and most likely will come in a range kit. Either way I am sure I will be grabbing one when they come out. Great part is the magazines from what I have read have been changed but the old mags will still work, thats always a plus. I hope the new mags are easier to load as the current ones are a pain in the butt without a mag loader.
Only time will tell if it’s as reliable as the current model. I haven’t even finished my review of the Smith & Wesson M&P 9mm Range Kit I currently own so I guess I better get on that! But I can tell you right now its reliable as hell. Shot it in the cold, heat and rain. I have shot about 800 rounds threw it and not a single issue. Not a ton of rounds but a good sample. More on that in my up coming review.
