Why is that? I understand S&W is pursuing the polymer market with the M&P, but why aren't they going head to head with Sig and Beretta with Aluminum-framed autos?

Best,

No business makes a decision without a business plan. Customers bought polymer, S&W makes them. I no longer buy S&W's but I must be the exception.

Beretta is now my only option, the fire control is identical to the S&W autos, no training required, and lots of spare parts for the forseeable future.
