Got Ameriglo I-Dot Pros onto the M&P 9, too, yesterday. Again, pics were taken and a detailed post will follow.
That could have been sporty if I was unaware of the little jack-in-the-box Smith hides under the rear sight assembly by way of a striker block plunger assembly.

Ideally, the workbench/gunroom/kitchen-table area should have a magnetic-surfaced floor.
Or 1960's orange shag carpet, for those among us who really feel they NEED to be punished, often.
Buddy of mine found that part out the hard way on an M&P. Didn't sound fun.
Green for Glock? Orange for S&W? I like the design though. Should be good "combat" sights.
It's not so much the jack-in-the-box, it's the fact that Smith & Wesson uses a top secret, metallic alloy for the little disc that, once free of its confines, loses all reflective properties and instead camouflages itself as whatever floor type it lands on.
One would *think* you could find a small, metal disc on a tile floor with ease. One would be wrong.

Xavier has a post in his archives about using an aquarium laid on it's side with a cloth cover for the opening. Poor mans glove-box, so those launch-y bits don't get lost, along with built-in eye protection.
Will,
Yup. That was one of the cleverest things I'd seen.
Well, if you had installed the Apex upgrades, you'd already have a)known that and b) a little tool for keeping it in place while changing sights...
