I've had a small variety of firearms from a small variety of manufacturers... before I decided to to "commit" to S&W.

I find moving between a variety of firearm brands resulted in much less consistent performance at the range. Once I limited 95% of my semi auto pistol shooting to the M&P line, I began shooting much more consistently.

I have the same sights on all (well almost all) of my potential carry guns. This allows practice with one to (more or less) transfer to the next.


The one hang up I have with M&P 45 M2.0 is... They still have that dammed hinged trigger. S&W has chosen to punish 45s with the responsibility of eating up the leftover stash of hinged triggers before they convert over to the new one. This detail is personally the reason I'm holding out on buying a Shield 45 M2.0 ...
