What sets this pistol apart is its laser-etched “Mass. State Police” marking on the left side of the slide, a detail that pays homage to its intended role as the official sidearm of one of the nation's oldest law enforcement agencies. Interestingly, despite a large order placed by the MSP, these pistols were never issued for duty use—allegedly due to concerns involving the slide during final evaluation. As a result, many of the pistols remained unissued and were later sold as "new-in-box" surplus units. These editions were built without a manual safety or magazine disconnect, and they shipped with three 10-round magazines, adhering to Massachusetts' capacity regulations. Today, these MSP-marked M&P45s are sought after by collectors and enthusiasts for their limited production, agency-specific branding, and unissued condition—offering a distinctive blend of historical context and proven .45-caliber performance.
