    Glock vs Springfield XDm vs S&W M&P

    Thinking about a new handgun, what do you suggest???

    I'm thinking .40 S&W.....possibly 10mm, don't know about price/availability of ammo though.

    What are some of the pros and cons of each??? Best prices???

    Thanks for any info.

    Glock. The pedigree and the MF'ers that have been there and done that such as TigerSwan(who use Glocks; the ones I've seen) speaks for itself.

    M&P or a Glock, either will serve you well, Avoid the XDm like the plague..(do a search here on the XD/XDm and read up, you might change your mind about them)

    in .40? M&P. It was built as a .40; unlike the Glock.

    I save money using AMSOIL full synthetic lubricants. Do you?

    If it's a .40 you're after, the M&P is the way to go.

    .45 ACP, M&P. 9mm, Glock or M&P.

    -Note- I own a G22, G23 and G27 and have no complaints.

    If I could start my 40's over it would be M&P's There is a difference. The Gen 4 G22's has done little to change my opinion.

    If you're after a 40 then go with the M&P. The new Gen4 Glocks are too new for a good idea as to whether they fixed the 40 or not.

    For me, it's all Glock, all 9mm. It's just easier for me and I recently consolidated my handgun collection (still have my 1911s though).

    In .40? M&P40 hands down. It's very controllable and milder recoil than the G23 I used to own. My favorite of the M&Ps I own (9, 9c, 40, 45).

    Oh, come now... Clint Smith replaced all his .45 Glocks with XDs! He's written many glowing reviews of the XD.

    I tried the XD .45 because it actually fit my thick-palmed, short-fingered hand very well. It had a nice round capacity also. Other than those two attributes, I was not a big fan. It never let me down, but it didn't do anything particularly well, either.
