Not sure how long it will take to get it shipped to Canada, but looking forward to giving it a try. The prize was a certificate and I get to pick the M&P, thinking of the Pro model for production division.

It is not the critic who counts, nor the one who points out how the strong man stumbled, or how the doer of deeds might have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred with sweat and dust and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs and comes up short again and again; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions, and spends himself in a worthy cause; and who, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.

I'm at 2 months in the same US state as S&W. How do you generally get guns across the border? My certificate didn't mention anything about shipping outside the US.

I'll give them a shout tomorrow, but shouldn't be an issue, lots of dealers up here carrying the M&P, so just a matter of arranging the export

I got the certificate too. You might ask them if it will take longer than the 3-4 months stipulated on the certificate. If they wont ship to Canada, you can always sell it on the forums.

Dear ATF,
Since guns are so dangerous, I threw all of mine in the Gulf of Mexico yesterday. If you're here to collect mine, I don't have any. Thanks for stopping by.

Congrats....I think you'd really enjoy shooting the Pro. The more I shoot mine, the more I like it and it indexes just like a 1911/2011 does (for me). I put a narrower front sight on it, one of the Accurate Iron sandpaperish inserts and Compact basepads on the mags (really big improvement there). I'd go shoot a major with it right now and not worry. R,

Hey Pat...I'm sure you're aware the Pro model is only approved for USPSA Production NOT IPSC as the DA trigger does not meet the 5lb minimum...so you would only be able to shoot it in the States for Production div......If you get the 9L however you can shoot both IPSC and USPSA...with a change in sights to the 9L and a bit of setting up with the trigger it can be just about the same as a Pro and you can shoot in both Canada and the US with it

Actually the recession has made the USD more valuable, not less. Call it "flight to safety" if you like.

Hi Pat, was this certificate specifically for the M&P or was it for the Sigma with an optional upgrade?
I picked up a cert at the L10 Nationals. It was for a Sigma (no charge), but for an additional $250+ upgrade fee I could get an M&P Pro. Just curious because I'm not sure if I want to pay an upgrade fee or get the Sigma.
BTW, great squadding with you at Area 2.

I heard terrible things about the sigma from two people who work at a gun range I frequent. One is a USPSA master and sarcastically said it ruled. I've heard nothing but rave reviews from owners of M&P's and gun shops. I also saw a video of the construction of the m&p and I am very impressed. It appears to be one of the best new pieces of plastic and I think I will get one as soon as I can afford it. I would easily pay the $250 if you also shoot prodution. If you don't the decision is harder.
