    Smith & Wesson M&P Thumb Safety

    I see that S&W is offering the thumb safety on the .45 but does anyone know if it is possible to have one installed on a .40 in place of the keyed safety?

      I do think a smith can install one, just cut the dead area out of the frame for its travel.

      Try the MP Pistol forums - http://www.mp-pistol.com for details.

      Maybe send it in to Dan Burwell for a trigger job, mag disconnect removal and the manual safety at same time.

        I got the 45 thumb safety, my friend got the 40 without it, both are indentical except calibers, so I think that it is not hard to install one in the 40, but I almost never use the thumb safety because I do not put one round in the chamber.

          The .40 and 9mm M&P's with the external safety will be released soon. The safety cannot be added after the fact. But, if you bought one with the safety, it could be removed.

            D,

            I was told by our guy at S&W that it will be an LE model only.
