Glock 17 or XDm or S&W M&P

[papakevin]

You gotta shot them all and pick what fits you best. There's a gun range in Louisville that rents out different handguns for $10 a session. I'm certain there's something around where you live where you can do the same. Rent one of each and have a big day.

(After all the positive M&P feedback, I'm going to look at one myself.)

XD's are very easy to work on yourself. I haven't done any extensive modifications to a glock or M&P so I can't compare, but the XDs are almost fool proof. There is really nothing you can mess up. There is a trick here and there to make things easier but even a novice gun tinkerer shouldn't have any trouble.

I went to Bradis and Plainfield SS today to check out all three handguns in person. I must say that I really liked the feel of the M&P in hand. Nice balance and very comfortable. I also really liked the M&P Pro with 5" barrel and fiber optic sights.

Plainfiled SS actually had an M&P pro with 5" barrel in Bi-tone for a very good price. I have never seen a bi-tone M&P. There is no mention of one in the S&W catalog or on their website.

Is this a limited edition model ? New model?

Thanks again for everyone's feedback!

Always personal preference with handling and feel but my vote is definitely for the S&W M&P. Spring for the "pro series" though.

I happened to wander by Plainfield Shooting Supply at lunch again today... OK, I work in downtown Indy so maybe it was on purpose.

I went to look at the M&P Pro in bitone again.

It followed me home!

I will post up some pics when I am able to post attachments.

Thanks again for everyone's help!

You'll never be able to post attachments. Gotta host our photos on Photobucket or some such site, and link to them.

So post yer pics, darn it!

I consider myself a "Glock Guy" but decided to go for the XDm 9mm over the G17 to have something different. I really love the SA. I don't have nearly as many rounds through it as my Glock G27 but I must say it is a great shooter. I love the 19 + 1 Capacity as well.

I don't think you could go wrong with anything on your list. Can't wait to see the pictures of your M&P...

Good purchase, looking forward to seeing those pics!
