Smith & Wesson has become legendary for their entire M&P line. These guns are well-made, reliable, and priced to avoid sticker shock. The line includes everything from handguns to rifles. Today, they are adding to that line with the release of the M&P FPC 22LR and M&P22X pistol.

M&P FPC 22LR

Chambered in .22 Long Rifle, the optics-ready FPC has an overall length of 30.375 inches and a compact folded length of 16.375 inches. It features a 16.25-inch threaded barrel, comes with a handguard that includes an upper Picatinny rail and M-LOK® slots for accessory mounting capabilities, three 20-round magazines, and a fixed 14.5-inch LOP stock with magazine storage.

The horizontal folding mechanism of the FPC features a locking latch, enabling secure transport and preventing interference with most top-mounted optics or accessories. Inspired by M&P handguns, its compact grip ships with four interchangeable palmswell inserts, allowing users to adjust for comfort. The familiar flat-face trigger design offers a crisp break and reset.
M&P22X

The new M&P22X, also chambered in .22 Long Rifle, serves as the perfect sidearm to the FPC 22LR. Designed with superior ergonomics in mind, it features a slim grip, low recoil, and a crisp, hammer-fired trigger, providing a premium shooting experience. The optics-ready M&P22X is built on a full-size frame, features a 4.1-inch barrel, and includes a Picatinny-style rail. It is packaged with two 20-round magazines that are compatible with the FPC 22LR.

In addition to the installed fiber Hi-Viz LiteWave H3 front sight and black serrated square-notch rear sight, this pistol includes a replacement tool, along with additional red, white, and green fiber optics, enabling users to customize their preferences. The M&P22X is also suppressor-capable and comes with a ½ x 28 thread adaptor and wrench out of the box. Both the FPC 22LR and M&P22X are available in 10-round compliant models for applicable states.

These guns make great range guns as well as exceptional trainers. Their full-size design running, the less expensive .22LR makes them a winner. Add to that the interchangeable magazines, and you have a dynamic duo.
