SW99 questions..

[Omil]

Hello folks,

It's been a while since I've been back here but today I would like to ask for some opinions and advises if you all don't mind.

This morning I went to my LGS to look at MP9's, I've been after this project for about 2 months, so this is it. So, I'm ready to do the papers work & DROS.

Suddenly, my eyes caught this SW99's on the bottom of the glass case, I asked to see this PRE-OWNED pistol. WOW..the grips just melted in my hands & all controls are just perfect for me. Overall condition is MINT. Asking price is $400.

Now, I'm confused. Pre-owned SW99's vs. MP9's NIB $569. It's not all about savings money, but this SW99's calling me. Btw, I'm in California, sometimes we don't get all the fun toys.

Would someone please be so kind and chime in, tell me about these two fine semi-auto ( performance, recoil, user friendly..etc. Loved it , if I could I would get both.

I had SW 4506, 3913NL, Walther PPK/S before but sold all due to 1911's bugs. Now I wanted to try a polymer 9's.

Thank you all in advance & I really hope to make this deal very soon.

The SW99 has been a great pistol in my experience. It has been reliable and accurate. Also, it originally came with 3 different back straps to fit your grip. If the one on there already fits your hand, you won't need to worry about that though. On the other hand the M&P is also a nice pistol. You won't go wrong with either one, however, as the SW99 isn't made anymore and the M&P series will be around for a while, I would personally give the SW99 a try first, especially with the price difference.
