Shot two M&P striker guns and my wife shot her Equalizer (internal hammer gun that looks like a striker fired gun).
I had just bought a stripped M&P 2.0 Compact frame and built it up for an orphaned 2.0 5" 9MM FDE slide I had in a box. Function, with Win. 124 grain FMJ NATO 9MM ammo was 100%. That ammo is a bit "hotter" than a lot of 9MM ammo and you can feel the difference if you've been shooting regular FMJ Remington, Blazer, Winchester, etc. But it shoots pretty good in the M&Ps, so I buy it when I see it at a good price. The big M&Ps I have don't like my CZ 9MM load at all (115 grain PD hollow point with Blue Dot powder.) The Shields do alright it with it though.
Just shot a couple 5 round groups at 5 yds., a 5 round group at 10 yds. and a 5 round group at 15 yds. Funny, the 15 yd. group was as good, if not a tiny bit better, than the 10 yd. group.
Then I went to some 124 grain hollow points loaded with Win 572 powder that shot pretty good in the 1.0 9MM 5" PC pistol on the last range trip. First five were fine. Second five reminded me why I should be using the 2.0 5" (with Apex Tactical barrel) to set up the overall length for my M&P 9MM loads. First round of the second 5 stuck so hard before the slide was in battery that I was about to just bring it home to push the round out. I finally got it to break loose by jamming the edge of the ejection port on the metal front edge of the bench and smacking the back of the grip. Tried it on the wood edge and just cut divots out of the wood. Took about 3 wacks on the metal bench frame to knock it loose. At that point I gave it up and put it away in favor of lettng my wife shoot some.
She had issues. One stove pipe ejection jam. The slide had the next round lined up and started in the chamber but the empty was keeping it from going all the way forward. First time I've seen that. That pretty well started a downhill run. She got hurried and wouldn't stop to take a break. Then she got wobbly and still wouldn't lay it down and rest her arms/get her breathing straight and started jerking the trigger when the dot floated by the target center. Jerked several rounds clean out of the orange circles of the targets She started out with the first round (Blazer 124 grain FMJ) right in the white circle in the middle of the target. She shot three magazines, laid it down and told me she was finished. Last time she did so good with me not looking over her shoulder and coaching her so I figured we'd do it again this time. Oh well.
Next up I sighted in the latest Shield Plus creation. I bought one of those really cheap ($299 on sale to be reduced another $50 I hope by that S&W rebate) Shield Plus pistols in .30 Super Carry. When I picked the pistol up I brought it home, removed the .30 Super Carry top end and installed a Shield 2.0 PC 4" slide I'd built up last year. It was OR so it has a Holosun on it. First 5 at five yards had me wondering. Then it (an maybe me, too) settled down and shot some pretty decent 4 out of 5 round groups with it. This was with the same Precision Delta 115 grain hollow points that shoot so well in my CZ pistols. I got it sighted in with the hollow points and then shot one group with the Blazer FMJ that wasn't bad but no where near as good as the PD hollow points and called it quits. My wife didn't want to shoot anymore so we picked up and came home.
Couple of targets.
Well, I guess not imgur is not cooperating, again. Says it's over capacity. Try later. Sorry.
