Anyone carry this thing concealed?

Thank you.
If the M&P is like the Glock it's NOT a double action --- and it's not for me. Having a manual safety on a Glock-like gun kinda makes it "cocked N locked" when carried --- that's not for me either. I also appreciate loooong DA type trigger pulls.

I wouldn't carry a double-action revolver with the hammer cocked --- and it won't go off either unless I touch the trigger.

One of the best lines I've heard was uttered by the Lady Agent on the Mentalist tv show re: the Glock. "The safety's in the trigger, it's almost like having no safety at all".

PS I don't use the safety at all on my DA/SA 3913 LS -- except to decock it.
