The Smith & Wesson M&P40 Shield M2.0 in .40 S&W is a micro-compact, striker-fired carry pistol (Smith & Wesson part no. 14657). This configuration has no manual thumb safety, so the pistol is ready to fire with a deliberate trigger press. It pairs a 3.1-inch stainless steel barrel with white dot sights and one 7-round magazine. The slim frame and textured grip are aimed at everyday concealed carry. It is the no-thumb-safety counterpart to the thumb safety version of the same pistol.

Key Specifications
