Sorta like the Sig 320 series, S&W has now introduced the M&P 2.0 in an alloy frame model with some enhancements. The M&P 2.0 Metal...

Pot metal?

I'd wager the old 3rd gen pistols had superior grade of alloy than these. It would be cool if they did stainless steel but it aunt going to happen

Now why would you think that?

And why would you think that?

Ya think S&W has forgotten how to do aluminum?

I imagine it's the same "pot metal" Sig, Colt, Beretta, CZ, FN, Browning, Ruger, DW, most AR15's, many shotgun receivers and all the rest of the quality firearms manufacturers use. So...yeah.

Guys, it is probably loaded full of MIM parts. What you want is one of them old ones for which spare parts are no longer available. I recommend Glockish 457 or 457s with square slide and plastic sights, they do not jam. I would leave 9x19 to them young girly guys.😂
