Being extremely rugged, they are either very expensive, such as the Trijicon RMR, about 900 euros, or cheaper yet solidly built, such as the Leupold Delta Point Pro for about 560 euros. The explanation lies in the use of the reflex sights included by Smith & Wesson in their positive list, which is often officially and militarily approved. Not through the optics, but the base of the Leupold is so high that even the rear sight, which is a good ten millimeters high, does not make it possible to deliver a "co-witnessed" target image when the red dot fails. We were frowning after mounting the Leupold reflex sight: despite the extra-high rear sight and front sight, the testers saw black. In the test, we used the redĭot sight from Noblex, which is better suited to the height of the OR sights. This time from Leupold: even the extra-high Optics Ready sights of the M&PĪre not enough for the tall Leupold reflex sight. The "positive list" of reflex sights for the Ten Auto includes rather expensive derivatives such as Trijicon, Leupold, Docter or C-More.

M&P TS and NTS: the rod visible in the disassembly picture next to theīackstrap (“frame tool”) serves firstly as a release aid when changing theīackstraps. Depending on condition, history, number of magazines, and whether the original box is in good condition, prices range from $1,500 to $3,000.

Around 1990, the FBI paid $295.00 for a S&W 1076 with two 9-round, four 11-round and one 15-round magazine. For the FBI, single-stack magazines were also available with 11 and 15 rounds instead of 9. It differs from the basic model for its three-dot Trijicon sights, a different trigger, as well as the missing magazine safety. The 1076 S&W pistol was manufactured in small quantities – about 2,400 pieces – from 1989 to 1993.
