The one with the 15 round grip but 3.6” barrel seems to be discontinued and replaced by an optics ready version?
ETA: they are still making them in their LE line up. I had to drive to a police supply store to find one in stock. |

That seems to be the case, if you're in the market a new one is at guns.com with free shipping and the rebate. https://www.guns.com/firearms/handguns/semi-auto/smith-&wesson-m&p-9mm-luger- They have a few used as well. |

Apparently they are still listed as an LE option. Found one at a police supply store that sells to veterans

I had to drive to a police supply store to find one in stock. Out of curiosity, why did you specifically want the older one instead of the newer optics-ready version. Obviously, with the optics-ready version you would probably want to swap out the sights if you didn't want to put an optic on it now (they could be saved for later), but you would gain the newer-style trigger, the full-height front slider serrations, and the ability to add an optic down the road. Was it simply to save cost, or was there something else that you considered better about it? |

It’s superior in every way to an adapter. |

Ah, that makes sense. I'm considering the M&P 2.0 Compact 3.6", and don't plan to run an optic initially. I prefer the new factory flat trigger to the hinged one, but could go the Apex route. Plus, being in NY, I need a 10-round magazine, but they only seem to have them with 15-round magazines right now (should be able to use the same 10-round mags that the compliant Compact 4.0" comes with, right?) Perhaps, I'll look at a |

I have a 3.6 but never shoot it anymore.
I put 4-500 rounds through it and carried it for a while but I kept going back to other guns instead. Now it just sits in the safe. |

I had my 3.6” milled as well. I wanted to make my carry gun a carbon copy of my full-size basically.
