A: Hi James, I doubt it as a .45 is usually bigger then a .9 or .40. It really depends on your holster.

A: both have a barrel length of 4.25 and Product length (in.): 7.63 for both so should be same frame but steve p is correct the width is normally the width is 1.12 for 9mm and is 1.18 for the .40

A: It will depend on the holster I can use the same holster for them with my alien gear holster all I would have to do is loosen the tension screws to make the holster wider

A: Here is a link to a top quality product that will solve your problem. https://shop.springerprecision.com/m-p-competition-slide-racker/ Buds is currently out of stock on all slide rack assisting devices.

A: Rob, there is much debate on this Sir. In the M&P designs, the cycling of the slide fully loads the striker. The trigger is not used or designed to add any additional significant striker spring compression. It performs no function of any double action mechanism. The trigger does not "pre-load" the striker. All M&P pistols are classified as DAO, although I can see why some folks believe otherwise, since the pre-set striker is only pushed back a short distance during the trigger press and there's no second strike provision.

A: Yes the S&W 1911 series are single action The M&P guns are striker fired
