Duration: 22:39

This video conducts a comparative torture test between a Smith & Wesson M&P 2.0 and a Glock Gen 5 pistol. Both firearms were subjected to extreme conditions including dry dirt, wet dirt, and mud immersion. The test aimed to evaluate their reliability and durability under stress, with the presenter noting early failures in both platforms, particularly with the M&P 2.0. The Glock Gen 5 ultimately demonstrated slightly better resilience after a field rinse, leading the presenter to favor it over the M&P 2.0 based on these results.

Quick Summary

In a torture test comparing the M&P 2.0 and Glock Gen 5 with dirt and mud, the M&P 2.0 failed early with dry dirt and ceased functioning after mud immersion. The Glock Gen 5, while experiencing issues like double feeds and squishy triggers, showed slightly better resilience and resumed operation after a field rinse.

Frequently Asked Questions

How did the Smith & Wesson M&P 2.0 perform in the dirt and mud torture test?

The M&P 2.0 experienced immediate feeding issues with dry dirt, failing to seat rounds. After a water rinse, it continued to have failures to feed, double feeds, and failed to eject. In the mud test, it also had ejection failures and its slide did not seat fully forward, ultimately ceasing to function.

What were the results of the Glock Gen 5 torture test against dirt and mud?

The Glock Gen 5 initially cycled after dry dirt contamination but developed a squishy trigger. After a rinse, it continued to fire but experienced double feeds. The mud test also caused double feeds and a squishy trigger. While it struggled, the Glock Gen 5 showed slightly better resilience and resumed operation after a field rinse.

Which ammunition was used for the M&P 2.0 vs. Glock Gen 5 torture test?

The torture test utilized Federal Premium American Eagle 124-grain Full Metal Jacket rounds. This specific ammunition was chosen for its slightly heavier recoil impulse, intended to help the firearms cycle more reliably when they became gritty.

What is the presenter's conclusion on M&P 2.0 vs. Glock Gen 5 reliability after the torture test?

Based on this specific torture test, the presenter concluded that the Glock Gen 5 demonstrated superior reliability under extreme dirt and mud conditions compared to the M&P 2.0. The M&P 2.0 ceased functioning, while the Glock Gen 5, despite issues, remained operational after a rinse.
