Hello, All!
I've lurked this forum long and enough and figured I'd may as well join. A little about me... I have been involved in the LE community for over 8 years serving as a contractor for an FLEA under the US DOJ umbrella. I am a recent graduate of a CA police academy and my status is pending completion of the process at which point I will be leaving my FLEA.
I am a martial arts instructor and have been teaching Hapkido and Taekwondo for over 9 years. During the most recent 2+ years of my life, I've added CA DOJ Firearms Safety Instructor and NRA RSO certifications. As a result, I moonlight at a local FFL/gun range so I am on the front-lines of educating the community, training new and old shooters, and fighting off the anti-gun groups and legislators.
I'm semi-new to the M&P line up, but have repeatedly been drawn back to the ergos and overall quality of the pistols.
My first M&P was a Shield and boy is that thing a laser. It's the CA version, but has been modified to remove all CA features and dons the Magguts +2 spring kits. This is my primary carry.
I purchased a 9C shortly after and have enjoyed it, but after obtaining the Magguts parts and regularly carrying 10 rounds in a slimmer package, I didn't see a practical need to have a 9C any longer. We're limited to 10 rounds in CA after all.
I recently traded the 9C for M&P40 FS and already have a .357 Sig bbl and 9mm Stormlake conversion bbl on the way. I like having the option to convert all calibers and already do this with my Sig Sauer P320, but it just doesn't feel like an M&P.
Go easy on me. I'm here to absorb info like a sponge. Thanks and stay safe.
