Smith & Wesson M&P45 M2.0 | Thumb Safety | MFG# 11526

The Smith & Wesson M&P45 M2.0 is a full-size polymer-frame semi-automatic pistol built around an extended stainless-steel chassis and an aggressive grip texture designed for repeatable handling and control. This M2.0 example includes a manual thumb safety, serrated slide, fixed white-dot sights and two magazines, with an Armornite corrosion-resistant finish on the metal components. For a compact optic that pairs well with this platform, consider a red-dot such as the Holosun 507C X2 for fast sight acquisition without exceeding a typical optics budget under $1,000. Typical applications for this pistol include personal protection and recreational/target shooting.
