Smith & Wesson M&P FPC 9 mm Folding Carbine — 16.25" Threaded Barrel, M*CARBO Brake, 23+1
The M&P FPC takes Smith & Wesson’s trusted M&P pistol heritage and converts it into a compact, side-folding 9 mm carbine that collapses to just 16.4" for transport. This specimen remains in very good condition and features a factory-threaded 16.25" barrel capped with an installed M*CARBO muzzle brake for enhanced recoil control.

The carbine’s side-folding buttstock locks securely around the handguard, shortening overall length for discreet carry yet unfolding instantly when needed. Integrated storage in the stock holds two spare magazines for a total of 69 rounds on board.
A free-float aluminum handguard carries a full-length Picatinny rail on top and M-LOK slots at 3, 6, and 9 o’clock, giving the shooter ample real estate for optics, lights, and other accessories. The frame, handguard, and barrel all wear a matte-black finish that resists glare and blends with common duty equipment.
Controls are built for flexibility: the magazine release is reversible for left- or right-hand use, and an ambidextrous bolt release speeds reloads. The flat-face trigger aids consistent finger placement, while the reciprocating charging handle offers positive manipulation under stress.
The installed M*CARBO muzzle brake threads directly onto the 1/2-28 TPI muzzle, harnessing the 9 mm’s gas to tamp down muzzle rise and keep rapid strings on target. If desired, the brake removes easily, and the included knurled protector preserves the thread shoulder.
