The Carry Comp series pairs a micro-size profile with a 4.0 inch stainless barrel that uses the S&W Power Port to deliver a ported configuration. Both the barrel and slide wear a black Armornite finish for surface hardness and corrosion resistance, and the barrel runs a 1:10 twist.
The Performance Center treatment includes a flat-faced, factory-tuned trigger for a consistent pull. The slide adds front and rear cocking serrations, relief cuts near the muzzle, and a ClearSight optics cut with a cover plate secured by two screws.
Sight configuration is straightforward and fast: a tritium front sight with a bright ring pairs to a plain black, dovetailed rear notch. The polymer frame features aggressive M2.0-style texturing for a solid hold within a compact, micro-size footprint.
This no-thumb-safety model uses a trigger safety and striker-fired, short-recoil operated action. Overall length is approximately 7.0 inches, with an unloaded weight around 17.9–18.0 ounces. Capacity is rated up to 15+1, and this pistol includes 13-, and 15-round factory double-stack magazines.
Additional details include USA manufacture, slide markings reading "M&P 9 SHIELD PLUS" and "SMITH & WESSON MARYVILLE, U.S.A.," and the current Performance Center configuration identified by manufacturer part number 13990.
