Smith & Wesson .40 S&W FPC

New from Smith & Wesson is a .40 S&W version of the M&P FPC (Folding Pistol Carbine). Like its 9mm cousin, this pistol-caliber carbine has a compact, foldable design that allows it to be stowed away and accessed quickly when needed. The M&P FPC has a familiar grip and trigger and is compatible with .40 S&W caliber full-size and compact magazines from the M&P pistol line. The FPC also has the ability to store additional magazines with its in-stock storage and features M-Lok slots in the fore end to mount your choice of accessories, as well as a length of Picatinny rail on top to add an optic.
