M&P 22

[kayaker55]

Just purchased my M&P CA 22lr.... looking for another magazine (something that's not $100 on E-bay). Any suggestions on where to look?

No one has them. Called S&W. Rep told me I could backorder if I wasn't in a hurry. Said it would I was looking at 4-8 weeks. S&W price was also the most reasonable. Ordered 4 more @ $32.

I ordered 3 from S&W almost 2 months ago now. I called the other day and was told they had no idea how long of a backorder...

^Yeah, it was bad enough when I pre-ordered it last Fall. Even then I waited almost 2 months, can't imagine now. On top of that, all the mags are sold out and not even available for backorder. Good thing I jumped on them early.

Clockwise to lower it.

I think I've turned it clockwise all the way down, but it's still shooting high.
I've adjusted my sight picture to the point where white dot is at the lowest point of the rear sight.

Anyone have grips on these? Talon, X-tream...?

I have a Pachmayr Tactical Grip Glove on my M&P 22.

I love it! It makes the pistol feel like an extension of my hand!

Some complain that it moves around as you shoot the gun. I put a couple dabs of clear silicone seal between the Grip Glove and the gun grip to hold it in place. That keeps it fixed in place, yet I can still remove it without damage to either the gun or the Grip Glove.

My M&P22 shoot high, with the stock sight, should I turn clockwise or counter clockwise?

If the gun shoots high, LOWER the rear sight (turn screw clockwise). If the gun shoots low, RAISE the rear sight (turn screw counter clockwise).

Then you've reached the max... try it the other way and shoot it with each adjustment. That's weird.

Thanks "kayaker55"! Just got off the phone with S&W and was able to order a mag. They don't know how long the back order is, but they said they were cranking them out and are going to start shipping back orders soon. I'm not in a rush for it.. but just glad to know its ordered. Best price I've seen for them too.

For anyone looking I just left Riflegear about an hour ago and there was one in the shelf.

Picked up my M&P .22 recently. Shot it for the first time Sunday. Shot high and to the left 3-4" first five. Was able to adjust elevation, but not windage. So it still shoots to the left. Couldn't budge the screw. Looks like loctite was used on the screw. Guys at Oak Tree suggested I call S&W because this seems to be a common problem they're seeing. Tried to call today, but couldn't get through. Will try again tomorrow.

Gave up on calling S&W. Sent them an email re: my the issues with my M&P 22. They responded the next day. I filled out their return form. I had a Fedex label the next day. They asked for a description of the issues and any targets I used. Let see what happens. I'm hoping for the best.

Glad you were able to order yours. Sent S&W my pistol in this week. Will order more mags when I get my pistol back. Fortunately, I'm in no hurry.

Since a few people were looking for replacement sights I thought I would post what worked great for me. I purchased a set of Meprolight Tru-Dot S&W Sights ML11766. Installed with no issues and was able to be zero'd easily. Purchase on ebay for $82. Nice and bright with 12 year warranty. Also added a Pachmayr Tactical Glove. Photos below:

Nice! Those sights look like a big improvement over the stockers. I use a Pachmayr Tactical Glove on my M&P 22 also.

I shot my M&P 22 with the Dawson Precision Fiber Optic's for the first time yesterday. A Huge Improvement over stock. The rear doesn't have height adjust, but it seems awful close (especially for as novice of a shot as I am). I don't have a clue how to "zero" the sights, I'm just going off of how I shot vs how I shot with the stocks (that were all high).

I was very happy, much easier to get on target.

Eyelawdoc, You were the reason I purchased the Pachmayr Tactical Glove. Nice of you to post that since no one had posted grips that could be easily removed. As for the Meprolight sites they are not adjustable as the stock sites but I took it to my local gunsmith who said he never installed sights on the S&W M&P 22 but did an awesome job [found out later] and sighted them with the install. He shot about 10 rounds and all were within 1" from one another. I shot it at the LA Gun Club and was pretty accurate within about 4" of each other but was always down and to the left. I thought maybe it wasn't sighted 100% as claimed until one of the employees asked if he could try it because he was thinking of getting one since he had an M&P 9MM. He shot 9 out of 10 in the bulls-eye and with one flier up and to the right. Moral of the story get the sight done professionally and then practice, practice practice. God I suck...
