The Smith & Wesson M&P9 M2.0 Metal Compact in 9mm, Tungsten Gray, with an optic-ready slide and a manual thumb safety (brand part no. 14279) is the CA compliant version of Smith & Wesson‘s aluminum-frame compact. It pairs a 4-inch barrel with a 7075-T6 aluminum frame and ships with two 10-round magazines. The C.O.R.E. optic-cut slide takes most major red dots on plates, and the white dot sights stay usable until one is mounted. A flat-face trigger, aggressive slide serrations and an 18-degree grip angle round out the controls. It suits concealed carry and range use for shooters who want a rigid metal frame in a compact size.
