As for me......
Probably not much fun. Especially when you're limited to less than 10 rounds in a mag. Oh well.....

Aloha, Mark

How could I forget that part.

 

[Member 77924]

So do I get it with no mags.

So it can be grandfathered in the impending semi auto ban.

Then get mags when the mag ban is overturned.

This is horrible.

 

[Jay Walk]

Sucks.

I would like one without mags since I already have four.

 

[nehalemguy]

Meh..........

13 3/4".........

The S&W would be kinda cool if it were a shorter barrel.

-E-

S&W making more garbage nobody wants instead of filling backorders on revolvers

Meh. Snoresville, moving on

Bass pro has ten center fire smith's to choose from.
Shorty's though

They put a lock on that turd like they wrecked the revolvers....?

I have all three of those parts. Folding buffer tube adapter, quick release barrel adaptor, and what looks like that exact brace. They're not all on the same gun, but... Hmm.

Sounds like a fun project!

I may need to hunt down an extra narrow forend, but that should be pretty straightforward.

R.e. the OP, I like the way they tackled the folding part better than KelTec for optics' sake. MSRP of $659 probably means a street price around $500-$550, which is not bad for a non-AR pattern PCC. I see this as a potentially handy backpacking / camping / truck gun, and it's nice to see more things compatible with M&P mags.

That being said, it seems a bit like a solution looking for a problem, and unnecessarily complex. A rifle with a picatinny rear trunnion for mounting either a side-folding or telescoping stock would be only a couple inches longer, a lot easier to manufacture, and eliminate a potentially critical fail point in the weapon. That would also enable them to shave more weight off the design - they could probably get it down to just over 4lbs if they ditched the folding mechanism, replaced the aluminum handguard with a polymer forend, and went with a minimalist side-folder or PDW-style stock.

Post pics of you do it - would love to see the finished product!
