Default I have left the Dark Side and found my way to the light of M&P

OK
So my tupper wear sets are going up for sale (minus my 19 with grip work as its a great shtf piece to own, and great for when taking friends to the range that dont own a gun)

I have also decided I want a bit more oomph than 9 mm, i am in certain situations and areas at times where I feel the added penetration power could really matter.

I have just ordered a M&P Compact with no extra safeties in .357 Sig

I should have it next week, as soon as it gets here it is going off to Bowie Tactical Concepts for a couple personal touches and then off to the range to get comfortable with it so I can start to carry it as my primary CCW piece.

What do you guys with the M&P in .357 Sig carry for ammo?

I have a full size M&P in 357 sig. I personally think it's a good choice for personal defense. I've put mine through several different barriers including car doors, walls, cinderblocks, etc...all with outstanding results. as far as penetration goes, the 357 has outdone the .40, .45, or 9mm in my own tests. long story short, The 357 sig will destroy whatever, or whoever stands in it's way. I first bought the 357 sig compact, but it had some extreme recoil so I traded it back for the full size which was the same price. Nothing against the other calibers, for they will all get the job done, but the 357 sig is my carry weapon at all times.

Thanks!
I got the compact as it will be MUCH easier for me to CCW.
I do not think it will be a pleasure to shoot at the range but as long as I can shoot it enough to get used to it and then often enough to keep on top of it I think I will be ok.
I do have some WICKED plans that David Bowie put into my head after looking at his site!!!
