I GOUGED MY M&P 9C FRAME. ADVICE NEEDED

[krieger]

It it doesn't affect fit or function then keep it and run the hell out of it.....

GUYS! YOU WILL NOT BELIEVE THIS! AFTER HATING MY M&P 9C, WITH THE APEX DUTY CARRY TRIGGER(USING STOCK HINGED TRIGGER), MY GROUPS WERE MUCH IMPROVED. BUT AS IRONIC AS IT SOUNDS, MY SHIELD ACTUALLY SHOOTS TIGHTER GROUPS! BUT COMPARING BOTH TO MY GLOCK 34, I WAS SADLY DISAPPOINTED THE GLOCK WAS ONLY MARGINALLY BETTER. FOR ALL THE MONEY I SPENT ON THE GLOCK TO MAKE IT A COMPETITION PISTOL, IT BARELY SHOOTS BETTER THAN THE M&P'S. NOW I THINK THE REASON MY SHIELD IS MORE ACCURATE THAN THE 9C IS BECAUSE I WAS ABLE TO INSTALL THE DUTY CARRY AND THE ALUMINUM TRIGGER. MY 9C HAS THE DUTY CARRY BUT STOC HINGED TRIGGER. I THINK IF I CAN GET THE ALUMINUM TRIGGER ON MY 9C, IT WOULD BE BETTER THAN BOTH GLOCK AND SHIELD. TOOK MY M&P 9C TO THE RANGE AND SHOT 200 ROUNDS THROUGH IT. I ALSO TOOK MY GLOCK 34 THAT HAS THE FOLLOWING MODS:

#1 I GOT A 2.8 LB MATCH PYRIMID TRIGGER FROM "THE GLOCK STORE"(RESET SEEMS STICKY CAN'T FIGURE OUT WHY)

#2. BARSTOW MATCH BARREL
#3 TUNSTEN HEAVY DUTY GUIDE ROD
#4. TITANIUM SAFTEY PLUNGER(POLISHED AND LIGHTER)
#5. TITANIUM STRIKER FIRED PIN-SKELITOLIZED
#6 COMPETITION SPRINGS ALL AROUND

BOTTOM LINE, THE GLOCK WAS ONLY MARGINALLY BETTER BUT THE ONE THING I QUICKLY NOTICED, THE GLOCK IS SO UNCOMFORTABLE TO HOLD. I DIND'T REALIZE HOW SPOILED I WAS WITH THE 9C'S ERGONOMICS BUT I WAS VERY IMPRESSED WITH THE 9C NOW THAT I HAVE THE APEX. I ALSO REMEMBER WHEN I DID THE SHIELD DUTY CARRY, I REALLY DIDNT NOTICE A HUGE IMPROVEMENT IN MY GROUPS UNTIL I ALSO DID THE ALUMINUM TRIGGER. THE HINGED TRIGGER REALLY SUCKS. I AM NOT A GREAT SHOT AND MY FRIEND CAN GET ONE HOLE GROUPS WITH MY G34.

BUT AFTER ALL THIS, I JUST CANCLED MY ONLINE ORDER FOR A GLOCK 19 AND I BELIEVE IT OR NOT, PLAN ON GETTING ANOTHER MP 9C. I NOW ABSOLUTELY LOVE MY COMPACT 9 AND THE BUILD QUALITY IS DEFINITELY BETTER THAN GLOCKS. I DIDN'T REALIZE THIS UNTIL I PLACED THE ORDER FOR A GLOCK 19 GEN3. THE TRIGGER JOB FOR THE GLOCK WAS HALF THE PRICE OF THE MP SHIELD, BUT THE CRUMMY GUIDE ROD ON THE GLOCK I ORDERED A TUNGSTON GUIDE ROD, THE CONNECTOR, THE SAFTEY PLUNGER, IT MADE ME REALIZE THE ONLY THING THE MP NEEDED WAS SPRINGS AND TRIGGER TO MAKE THAT THE BEST OF BOTH WORLDS. THE GLOCK 19 CAME OUT TO 760.00 DOLLARS FOR EVERYTHING I WANTED IT TO DO AND IT MADE ME REALIZE THE INFERRIOR BUILD QUALITY.

ANYWAY, THE 200 ROUNDS THE GUN FUNCTIONED PERFECTLY USING MY HANDLOADS. IT WAS ALSO VERY COMFORTABLE AND AFTER PUTTING 200 THROUGH THE G34, IT WAS LIKE HOLDING A BRICK. THE GLOCK'S ERGONOMICS IS AWFUL

STOP USING ALL CAPS :/ It's like someone blow torched my retinas.

I do have to ask, if you weren't sure it was safe why would you go out and fire it? I mean sure, now you know that it's fine like most of us predicted but if you thought it was dangerous before and were correct... something just doesn't make sense there.

because I called a gunsmith and was told it would have no effect on the function of gun and would only be a factor in that the take down pin could get lost or fall out if I took it apart but as long as it was on the frame, it would be fine. sure enough it was. I do have the wire on order so will put that in. I may have apex attach the aluminum trigger for me on the connector. I plan on buying another 9c.

"I just don't trust that this gun is safe to fire anymore." but you're willing to sell it to a friend.
