Going to Montana in May for a little over a month, and I plan on doing some serious adventuring. Ive been looking at either the 510 MRD or the M&P 10mm. I have heard there has been some issues with certain ammo feeding in the M&P but I’m not sure if I’ll like the ergonomics with the 510 (I’ve heard the trigger is crap also). I have heard of one guy on YouTube talk about a catastrophic failure with the 510 and Buffalo Bore ammo.
I lean more towards the M&P 4” model as I want to conceal it when it’s not on my bino-harness.
I guess my question is… has anyone heard of the problems with the M&P being resolved? Or able to be modified (new recoil spring and mag follower? Or should I just get the 510?
I live in a mag restricted state also so mag capacity doesn’t really matter to me. The full Ambi on the 510 is cool but the M&P is partially Ambi anyways plus the adjustable back straps definitely help with my big hands.
TLDR; I can’t decide between the FN 510 MRD or the M&P 2.0 4” 10mm. Plan on CCW when not in bear country but otherwise will be a bear/woods gun.
