I have a running thread on mp-pistol.com but I thought I'd post here too just in case anyone is interested.
Make: Smith & Wesson

I took my M&P out for the first time on Friday (last Friday) and to put it simply, I'm impressed! It fits my hand better than my Glocks and ran without a hitch. I ran the small back-strap but I might play around with the medium as well to see which one I like better. The controls were all easy to use and felt very natural. The gun points naturally and it took me a few magazines to get used to the trigger but overall I don't think it's too bad. I liked the stock sights and recoil felt very soft.
Here was the breakdown on the ammo I ran through it:
Independence 115gr FMJ - 50 rounds
Winchester WB 115gr FMJ - 50 rounds
American 115gr FMJ - 50 rounds
Remington 115gr JHP - 100 rounds
Winchester SXT 147gr JHP - 40 rounds
A total of 290 rounds without an issue which is what I expected. I'm heading to the range next Friday so I'll report back but so far I have a very favorable opinion of this new handgun!
