- .40 S&W compact-length barrel (spare, not installed)

The M&P357c combines compact dimensions with the .357 SIG chambering, offering a 3.5 in barrel, an overall length of about 6.7 in, and an approximate weight of 22.2 oz. The slide and barrel are stainless steel with a black Melonite finish, paired with a black polymer frame and interchangeable backstraps for grip fit. Capacity is 10+1 using compact M&P-pattern magazines.
The installed TG-H3-marked 3-dot sights use fiber/tritium elements, with an orange ring front for fast sight acquisition in a wide range of lighting conditions. These sights replace the original factory set and are already mounted and zeroed on the pistol.
This first-generation compact includes the hinged two-piece trigger and a left-side magazine release. Safety features consist of a trigger safety with no manual thumb safety and no magazine disconnect. The right side of the slide is marked "capable of firing with magazine removed," reflecting its factory configuration.
An integral two-slot accessory rail is molded into the dustcover. Additional details include textured grip surfaces and three 10-round magazines with witness marks through 10. The serial on the frame matches the factory case label.
Rounding out the package, this pistol comes with a spare compact-length .40 S&W barrel (not installed), offering an additional factory-spec barrel option, along with the Smith & Wesson hard case and a compact trigger-guard holster with lanyard.
