Congrats on the new pistol. Learn it, practice with it and it will be a life long friend.
Nothing can replace the feeling of the first time.
Good luck, check in and let us know about your first range outting.

Welcome hokie!
Remember that you can drop a 9mm barrel into a 40 and shoot both calibers equally well! A 9mm barrel will cost you around $65 new...
And you can run full size mags in the compact. Use an X-Grip adapter and you'll have a full size grip!
Nice gun choice! I don't have a 9FS, but I do have 8 other M&P's I love, as well as 4 of their AR's, 3 third gens and an M41.
I'm also impressed you have liked other posts! You will be an asset to the forum... Again, Welcome!!!

My first gun was the M&P FS 9...great gun...I love to shoot the snot out of it. It chews up and speeds out whatever I feed it. Enjoy and be safe!
i saw that in the manual.it doesnt really recommend it but does state if used,it will need to be cleaned more often. it does say to never use +p+ ammo. only after reading that many on here have shot +p ammo with no problems did i buy some. had i read reviews and such stating otherwise i would have any in my inventory.
i will see how things go with the fs at the range and how well i like it in the holsters i ordered.wouldnt rule out a 9c or 40c down the road..
finally able to get out to the range earlier today and throw some rounds down range. had a blast doing that but even more fun after loading the gun and shooting some down range...
not a marksman by any means.gonna need to hit the range often for that. maybe go shooting with my uncle as well. shot mostly the cheaper ammo and a mag of golden saber 124 +p. the gs +p shot clean holes thru the targets where the 115gr ammo left holes looking like they were almost ripped out.
i like the gs 124gr +p but i also want to try out the RA9T if i can find it(had a neighbor serve twice in Iraq that recommended pdx1 but i dont know if i want bonded if it will over penetrate). also want to try speer dot.
can wait to hit the range again.
almost forgot that earlier this week i got in some extra mags from quantico tactical and a foxx hybrid holster. really fast shipping on both orders. the foxx holster holds my fs 9 nicely. can do jumping jacks and it doesnt move.
