War has always been good for business, and the war on terrorism is no exception, especially for Alliant Techsystems (ATK), the company that manufactures more than 90% of the small-caliber ammunition used by the US military. In 2000, ATK was producing about 350 million rounds a year at the Lake City Army Ammunition Plant, a government-owned facility operated by the company. Today, ATK is producing 1.2 billion rounds annually, and it is retooling the 60-year-old Lake City plant to produce even more.

All M&P45 pistols feature a Zytel® polymer frame reinforced with a rigid, stainless steel chassis; a through-hardened, black Melonite®-finished stainless steel barrel and slide for durability (with a surface hardness of 68 HRc); a passive trigger safety to prevent the pistol from firing if dropped; and a sear release that eliminates the need to press the trigger in order to disassemble the firearm.
