S&W M3000+ (aka walmart shorty MK.2)
Just saw the new version of the M3000 at walmart. Cheap, so I decided I'd buy it.
First, the good news. The internals are no longer that yellowish Chinese plastic. But that's about where it stops being good. First off, the mags are no longer compatible with the standard type. Second, and weirdest, the pistol grip has no base. It's totally hollow. The pump is fairly short, you only have to pull it about 3/4 of the way back. The muzzle is also a conical piece of orange plastic. I haven't opened it up or fired it yet, so I don't know about performance, but overall it seems worse than the first model. The only metal I can see is the pump rail. Don't buy it.
