Description

DPM Mechanical Recoil Reduction System | Smith & Wesson M&P M2.0 Compact 4"

Overview: The DPM Mechanical Recoil Reduction System is a direct drop-in replacement for the factory recoil/guide rod on Smith & Wesson M&P M2.0 Compact 4" pistols. Featuring DPM’s multi-spring rod architecture, this kit smooths slide travel, cushions slide impact, reduces perceived recoil, and improves follow-up shot speed without modifying your pistol’s configuration.

Compatibility

Designed for: Smith & Wesson M&P M2.0 Compact (4" barrel)
Not compatible: M&P Carry Comp 4.22" Barrel

What’s Included

1 × DPM multi-spring recoil rod (drop-in)
2 × external tuning springs (short & long)
Installation instructions

How It Works

The DPM system uses a nested multi-spring design. An internal spring moderates the final millimeters of slide travel so the slide never hard-contacts the frame; external springs let the shooter tune closed-slide (battery) resistance. The result: smoother recoil impulse, reduced slide impact stress, and improved control across varied ammunition types.

Power Rates — Slide in the Battery (Closed)

Short Spring: 8.2 lbs
Long Spring: 9.0 lbs

Total Force — Slide Full Open Position

Approx. Total Force: 26 lbs (approx.)

Key Benefits

Faster follow-up shots — reduced muzzle rise and quicker sight recovery.
Significant recoil reduction — smoother, more controllable shooting experience.
Slide & frame protection — buffered travel reduces impact stress and wear.
Improved reliability — tuned cycling reduces certain malfunctions.
Adjustability — choose spring length that matches your ammo and setup.
Lifetime warranty — manufacturer coverage for defects.

Tuning & Installation Notes

Always clear the firearm and observe safe-handling procedures prior to installation.
Install per the included instructions. Start with the short spring if unsure, then test and adjust toward the long spring as needed.
If you run compensators, threaded barrels, or suppressed setups, test function carefully and verify reliable cycling.
Product components and designs may change; confirm included springs/plugs/washers before tuning.
