Tell me more about this gun...very nice

S&W M&P 15 MOE MID MagPul Spec Series Rifle
MagPul MOE Stock
MagPul MOE Grip
MagPul MOE Forehand Guard
MagPul MBUIS Rear

That is it so far it is pretty much stock. I will be adding a BAD ASS, MagPul B.A.D lever, Illumination Kit w/ a Surefire Momentary light, and a Aimpoint Pro Patrol Rifle RDS. And later down the road might remove the FSB do a lo-pro gas block and a flip up front sight. Also the wife wants to know about the pistol in the second picture you posted. And thank you

Welcome to the board, you would think there would already be a M&P thread going, they are certainly popular enough.

My slide just returned from L&M Precision where Mark Housel milled the slide, installed an RMR and supressor-height sights. I'm excited to begin working with the M&P and the rmr. It's my first experience with both and I'm hoping that it will be an answer to my eyesight issues.

The 10-8 (http://www.10-8performance.com/m-p/) custom goes through many hands to get made. The slide work is done by ATEi.

Something was rubbing me the wrong way about this photo but I couldn't put my finger on it...I just figured it out though...

...is that pistol set up for a lefty, but sitting in a right handed holster?

Good eye TripleBravo- I'm not speaking for Stickman obviously, however I run my mag' release on the right even though I'm a righty. It matches somewhat to my HK operation, and is a lot easier for me to operate. I have fairly "normal" size hands and no matter what I do I have to make a substantial grip change to reach the mag' release and on my compact my palm would would pinch the mag'. Running it on the right is very easy to reach and I am able to open my palm to let the mag' drop free.

Not sure yet. I've got the 10-8 Performance M&P with the stippling, and I like the texture. This one has some texture on the removable grips. I'll have to keep shooting both and see what I want to do. I think I need a 3rd M&P, but I'll leave that completely stock.

Yeah, I want to pick up a long slide 9mm just to have one.

The stippling on my full size is finally starting to wear down a little. Trying to decide if I should just go over it again or leave it.

I can think of worse problems. I didn't have anything to spend money on from the ages of 21-23, so I acquired a sig p226, sig sp2022, m&p 9, beretta 96, 4 AR's, and of course my sig bolt gun and Henry lever action .22. I need a shotty, bad.

Ride, I hear ya. That's when I got all my fudd guns. I've got another 10 guns between shotguns and .22s. But they rarely come out.

Shield was $425 with some spare mags
ATEi full serrations, refinish in NiB, trigger job and HD sights was $435 (He gave me a little bit of a discount). Though, the wife thinks it was much less.

Will do. I don't want to rush to judgement.. But it puts both our PPQ triggers to shame and they've both been polished... It's certainly a competition trigger as configured now. WAY to light for SD. I'll play around with springs to try and get it in the 4.5-5# range to feel more comfortable with it, as it was suppose to take over the now gone G17's house watch detail.

Reliability is also a concern ATM. Though the stock striker spring is retained it just gives me the feeling of not being 100% dependable, but that's partially due to the circumstances surrounding its install. It'll get plenty of rounds quickly that's for sure :D

Yeah, that's why I only bought one. $45 in my opinion is nuts for a mag extension. It's high quality, but the cost/benefit is not there.

In fact, in hindsight, not sure why I bought 1 in the first place.

Thanks man, and everyone. It means a lot that anyone enjoys my shots, haha.

I'm just using a Nikon D3200. These were taken with the kit (18-55) lens, a soft box with 4 'daylight' florescent bulbs (continuous lighting).

The embracing part is I am just using Pixlr to edit my photos. I need to just buy lightroom and/or photoshop. There are so many more tools I could be using.

Didn't realize you could get shots of that caliber out of a >500$ camera. Always assumed you guys were spending thousands to take these photos. For someone not very tech savvy trying to use some type of editing software is probably a no go right?

Ha, I get lucky more than I'm good. I only keep about 1 out of 6-7 shots I take. I take a lot of bad ones and sometimes one turns out.

I spent a lot of time reading and looking around before I bought it. Talked to Stick, Firelance Media and Sully to see what everyone was using. Yes, they're all using thousands of dollars of equipment but they all said that it's mostly lighting and lenses. So I got a lower end camera, picked up an extra lens and some lights.

There is a photography thread on here somewhere I can't find that has good info.

I don't think the software is hard to use. Youtube can teach you. That's how I learned to do things I didn't know how to do.
I really don't do much with editing. I brighten whites, darken shadows, sharpen the image and take out dog hair [8D] and that's about the most I do.

I'm always just trying to snap a photo quick and throw it up before one of the kids wakes up often. Lots of time fine tuning the amount, angle etc of lights I'd imagine to pull of a shot like this?

For this I just set up one light which is quick. But if I am setting up multiple lights and a backdrop yeah, I need time. I don't have the space to leave up all my stuff (kid would tear it down).

Actually, I like them a lot. Surprised me. A friend had them on a Glock and let me shoot it. Decided to put them on the Shield. They really do what they advertise. Nice and bright in day and dark. Most of my pistols are three dot, and several tritium. This is the only fibre optic set I have. Not the end all and be all for everything, but nice on this particular pistol. I'm not converting any of the others, though.

I like it. I've been carrying more lately.
Went with the compact so I could share holsters and mags with my fullsize (unlike the Shield).

I'd really like to get a long slide to go with them.
The NiB grew on me. Didn't like it at first.
I did it cause the wife liked it and this was going to be her gun. Then the Shield came out and she unded up with that.

I've got Trijicon HDs on this one. I am liking them quite a bit. I need to adjust them a bit. Shooting right about an inch at 7 yards.

I was taking pictures of the SMOS build earlier and figured the M&P needed some love too. Just spent about an hour and a half in Photoshop playing around with it.

Shit Jerry, you just made me spend money [:)]

I didn't know they made a TLR-6 for the Shield! Off to look for holsters ... any recommendations for a simple IWB kydex rig?

Sorry Dave, that is the wife's pistola and she uses a handbag or nightstand. I'll do some looking. Computalotapus may be able to make one.

Edit: Guys, I found this IWB on eBay (http://www.ebay.com/itm/Black-Kydex-IWB-M-P-Shield-w-Streamlight-TLR-6-Holster-/222063795797?hash=item33b4089e55:g:i-oAAOSwQjNW~DRj) and it looks pretty good. Looks like the guy also makes it OWB as well.
