S&W M&P40C by Burwell

[robmcd]

This is my S&W M&P40C as customized by Dan Burwell. It includes about everything he offers, including "sharkskin" texturing, trigger job with overstop, hard chrome slide, barrel and controls with brushed accents on slide, Burwell rear night sight with S&W front night sight, CTC Laser Grips, etc. The trigger job is spectacular.

that's hot ... and that CRKT Assisted wild weasel is a discontinued knife...

Probably one of the nicest M&P's i've seen. Can I ask how much it cost for the trigger job and slide?

+1, my sentiments exactly, as well as the comment on the cost!

That is one nice looking M&P. I have one of these and it's making me think about putting a CTC laser grip on it. How much did it cost ya?

 

[Urj]

That's awesome!

 

[LT1MCSS]

The more I look at it I really like it. The only thing that stops me from getting an M&P is the lack of hi-cap mags. Maybe a M&P9C with a polished slide would be nice.

That is one nice-looking pistol and it even comes with a remote control. Damn!

Dan Burwell did a laundry list of modifications for me. His work is impressive, especially the trigger job. I have about $ 750.00 invested in modifications which includes the CTC Laser Grips. The street price on the laser is about $ 235.00.

Wow... that looks great! Nice.

 

[ItalianBostonian]

How much does he charge for the trigger job, what exactly is done to the trigger? I need to get this done on mine.

very nice job

Looks great but not sure I'd add $750 in extras into an M&P. Range report? I wanna see pics of targets!

 

[Ricochet]

I've seen one of these and they are amazing. It's giving me an idea to take a closer look at the M&P45..

I met Rob at the S&W Tour last Fall. I saw the gun and his target! It's awesome, that's for sure (much prettier in person than the pictures can show). Rob's a great guy, as he also helped give some pointers on grip to my Wife (we were in the shooting bay next to him), which improved her hits tremendously. We were shooting the rental M&P 9 with a MA "rubber-band trigger".

Here's a shot of the sights. The front is a S&W factory night sight, and the rear is a customized Burwell Gunsmithing sight with dehorned edges, 40 LPI serrations, single "operator" style tritium vial without white outline. It is a "ledge" style to allow for one handed drills. At night the rear tritium dot is very sharp and easy to distinguish from the front sight. My old eyes get much faster front sight acqusition with this set-up.

That looks amazing!! I think I'll have to get some work done on my fullsize 40 when my tax refund comes in.

I really like the shark skin. What is the final pull weight of the trigger?

A crisp, smooth 4.5 lbs. The reset and and take-up were also greatly improved. Dan's trigger jobs include improvements to the striker and safety plunger.

Since the gun is short, my trigger finger was nearly pointing backwards at the break point. Dan set the trigger forward and added a welded overtravel stop for me.

The trigger can be made lighter for competition applications, but below about 4 lbs. it starts to get a bit mushy.

Sweet gun!!! Burwell is the man when it comes to M&P's. I've got one of his and they rock!!!
