LEDE M&P FPC In 10Mm

Smith & Wesson Brands, Inc. has released its M&P FPC chambered in 10mm Auto. This long-anticipated and even longer-requested, optics-ready 10mm FPC (Folding Pistol Carbine) utilizes a blowback design and is equipped with three, 15-round double-stack M&P M2.0 pistol magazines. It features an integrated recoil buffer system, an overall length of 30 inches and can fold to a compact length of 16 inches for easy storage. The horizontal folding mechanism of the FPC provides a locking latch to ensure secure transport and prevents interference with most top-mounted optics or accessories. Its 9/16-24 TPI threaded muzzle can be paired with the user’s preferred suppressor, while the in-stock magazine storage facilitates fast and efficient reloading.

The M&P FPC handguard features an upper Picatinny rail and M-LOK slots for accessories such as IR lasers, a flat-face trigger with a crisp break and interchangeable palmswell grip inserts for comfort. It also includes a carrying bag with multiple storage compartments to keep components and accessories organized and secure. In addition to the new standard 10mm model, Smith & Wesson now also offers a compliant version that shares the same feature set but includes three 10-rounds magazines as opposed to 15 rounders.

This FPC would be an absolutely perfect hog gun to keep stored in the truck or high rack. Its 10mm chambering packs more than enough punch to take down the stout creatures, while its 15-round capacity, fast reloadability and ability to quickly put follow-up shots on target make it perfect when encountering a sounder.
