It's official the Glocks are gone

I was thinking about buying a glock or the m&p, but I'm leaving towards the m&p sure to s&w having a better warranty

Just out of curiosity whats the warranty difference?

Someone correct me, if I'm wrong, but I believe the Glock is 1 year, and the S&W is 'lifetime warranty.'

Correct! They have a 1 year warranty in writing. It has been said that they will repair parts and labor at no charge after the 1 year even if you're not the original owner. I would assume that they will only repair if it's clearly a defect and not from excessive wear or abuse.

I was researching 9mm to chose between the M&P and a Glock 17. I rented both models at the range and put about 200 rounds through each. While I shot the Glock better at longer ranges (20-25 yards), I shot the M&P better at ranges that are more used at IDPA. (3-15 yards). The M&P fit my hand a little better, although I did like the front of the trigger guard of the Glock better than the M&P. In the end, I selected the M&P and haven't looked back since. My next purchase will be the M&P 9L or the Pro.

I really enjoy shooting the M&P 9mm. She's a sweet shooter and I got a great deal from twomoons here on the forum. Just received enough magazines to run in IDPA. Now just need a holster and mag carriers, but will probably wait until I have about 1000 rounds through the gun before I attempt a match. I'm really looking forward to it.

I have an M&P 9c and an M&P .45 FS and love them.


I am actually about to buy a Glock, in .40.

I really don't like Glocks, but I can't say anything bad about their quality or performance. I just don't like the feel in my hand all that much.

I will say I am VERY accurate with them, even though I don't like the grip angle or grip feel.

I've wanted to add a .40 just to have one, and to be able to switch between .357Sig and .40. AND A LGS has used G22s with night sights for $425 out the door.

For my purposes that sounds ideal. I'd prefer a M&P, but I'd have to spend around $700 to make the trigger nice [Thank you APEX!], and THEN I'd have to buy a .357 barrel for it.

I can get the pistol and .357 barrel for $600 total. Hard to beat that price.

Plus, I'd have a Polygonal barreled pistol from the last major manufacturer to make them that way that I do not already own [HK/Kahr/MagnumResearch already].

But, I would MUCH rather have an M&P. I just can't see spending $900-$950 for something I would use rarely-just for kicks and giggles- when I could do the same thing for $600 overall.

BUT, M&Ps feel MUCH better.
