nice, what made you decide on that over a glock or a springfield xdm? I have been looking at all 3 and not sure which one I like the best.

Congrats. I love my M&P 9 Pro.

congrats!

Good for you!

Holy crap! $830.00MSRP!
I have shot the pro series and the lighter trigger and sights can be addressed later for that price. I have seen a few of these come back with busted frames as well. But nice looking pistol. I've debated getting an M&P since they came out, but i just can't do that to my glocks.

P.S. I know you didn't give 830 for it, but still.

Nice tdt... I love my M&P9. I haven't shot the Pro.

 

[TBAGRR]

my range buddy has a m&p9 pro for his IDPA gun... it shoots awesome and feels good.... I'm a XD guy but thats a nice pistol!!!!

 

[fivepointstar]

great choice!!!

 

[hole punch]

I'm totally unfamiliar with these. I'd love to hear what made you go with this make and model?

 

[XD Mike]

I looked at the M&Ps when I purchased my XD, it basically came down to what felt best in my hands. The M&P definately felt like a well built pistol, it felt like a higher end polymer. But, in the end my XD felt the best in my hand even though I knew the M&P felt like a better pistol. Good buy!

Congrats!

...it felt like a higher end polymer.

I think this is my new signature line.

This is sorta S&W's answer to the Glock 34 & 35, right?

 

[BlueFin]

I think this is my new signature line.

Darn it! you beat me to it

 

[XD Mike]

I think this is my new signature line.

Yeah, I guess I should have worded that a little better. It felt more durable than the XD, definately a better quality, IMO.

G34 is the answer. No questions needed after you shoot one.

I had my hands on a XDm and it felt better than the M&P. I haven't shot the XDm. I spoke with a couple of gunsmiths and they said the M&P is a better quality gun.
Tzoid let me borrow his at the last PA Steel shoot up at SLCFSA and I took 7 seconds off my time and that was from the draw, all other shoots in the past I started from the low ready. The only other time I shot that gun was a few rounds one day while Tzoid and I where at the range.
The small palm swell feels the best in my hand and as I shoot it more I'm sure my time will improve.
Hell, I beat an experienced shooter with a comp. 1911 by one second that day.

Love mine. Thinking of buying another in 45ACP and selling the 1911..

I just decided on the M&P9 Pro over Glock and XDM. The real deciding factor for me was how it felt in hand. I also prefer the look of the gun much more. I know that looks are just that...looks. But there is certainly an argument to be made about the look of a gun factoring into your decision of buying it. (ie - high end 1911's, etc.)

My first M&P was actually the little know M&P 22 Compact. It's an awesome little gun and really fun to shoot at the range. I can pour 150 rounds through it in the blink of an eye and have an absolute blast.

The look and feel of it is what initially turned me onto a higher caliber M&P. I started off looking at the standard M&P9 but then go turned onto the Pro series because I also had been wanting a full size/long slide handgun.

The M&P9 Pro fits both these needs and also will be my first leap into the 9mm caliber. Just .22 and .45 up until now. I couldn't be more excited and already ordered 1000pack off bulkammo.com
