Smith & Wesson Unveils New M&P Metal Compact Pistol at SHOT Show 2026
SHOT Show 2026 was, of course, packed to the brim with new product releases from all of our favorite brands. One of the most impressive being Smith & Wesson’s new Spec Series VI M&P9 M2.0 Metal Compact pistol.
This compact 9mm packs a lot of features right out of the box, like an included direct mount Aimpoint ACRO P-2 red dot reflex sight, a Floyds Custom Shop EDC magwell for a higher grip and improved control, and an in-line ported barrel that redistributes gases for reduced recoil.
