Anyone carry M&P .40?

[bikerboy]

I'm looking for a S&W M&P .40 w/4 1/2" bbl for ccw.
Going to gun show this wkend and looking for some pros/cons on this model or also the compact.All help is much appreciated!!

I carry a 4.25" M&P40. It carries very well in a Comp-Tac Infidel IWB holster. I use to carry a compact but I shoot the full size better since it fits my hand better and the full size is not hard to conceal.

I carry the compact. With the pinky extensions it fits just right. For my 2 free mags (thanks to the rebate) i requested 15rd full size mags. I'll get the spacer from midwayusa.com and use them as backup mags.

I do carry a .40 full with a CHL. I use a comp-tac MTAC IWB holster and it works pretty well. The grip does print a little bit without a jacket, but it's doable in cool weather. I'm looking at getting compact for the summer months.

I love the M&P40 but I had a hard time concealing the grip unless I was wearing a jacket. I picked up the 40c for ccw and it works much better. I use a Comp-Tac MTAC for my holster. As for shooting, they are both great for me.

I have both full size and compact 40s and have carried both at the same time. The compact get more carry time than the full size.

Heading into sketchy areas?

I have both. Go with the compact first for daily carry then pick up the full size.
