Just wondering if anyone has fired a S&W M&P 40cal. I am looking to sell my sigma 40 cal and wanted to try the M&P

There must be an easier way to drain the torque converter....

Have not fired the 40 cal, but have had experience with the S&W Bodyguard 380 with integrated laser. Nice little carry gun, at a great price! Put it in a Rekluse walet holster, and nobody will ever know you've got it!

I have a Texas edition ruger .380 that I carry. It is almost invisible when on your person. But the very first gun I bought was a sigma 40cal and I love that round just not the 11lb trigger on the sigma. Saw some reviews for the m&p and felt it may be worth upgrading. Thanks for the input. And for the transfer case may need a 1911 45.

FWIW...I have the 9MM M&P and I LOVE it.

Comes with different size hand-grips that you can change out. Could fire it all day long.

How is the trigger and accuracy on the 9mm?

Fantastic trigger, and the accuracy is off the charts....or maybe I'm just that good Keep in mind this is the first handgun I've owned. The 9mm M&P is what the WA State Troopers are carrying now.

although 9mm is nice in my humble opinion you cannot beat .45. I carry a glock 21 and when a bad guy sees that glock come out they know not to give any trouble. Tried the 92F but did not like the cyclic action of it

Bersa Thunder .380 CC. With the little money I make I have to wonder: Why I drive (and love) one of the most gas guzzling expensive to run vehicles, and carry a pistol that fires the most expensive ammo.
