Good to hear, what barrel length do you own? I'm leaning towards a 6"
I went with the 6" model as well

He had an M&P9. If I didn't own a HK45, my next choice would of been a M&P45. Great gun and half the price of an HK.
I spotted Nick Fury in The Avengers rocking the M&P. He's a smart man.
Indeed he is. The M&Ps are slowly building up with the LEO world. My buddy down in central Florida is all excited because his department is switching over to the M&Ps, and I'm excited for when I can get the possibility of buying their used ones super cheap.
Our city police had a showdown between the Glocks and the M&Ps. Out of 158 officers they went with the M&P. Not sure what the final count was? Personally this weapon has made me forget about Glock. The trigger pull is far superior IMO.
Look up APEX Tactical. They manufacture after market sears and striker blocks for the M&P. I personally have the M&P .45 and always found the trigger was a tad bit to gritty for my like, plus the lack of a trigger reset really turned me off.
I installed the APEX Tactical Hard Sear and Ultimate Striker Block. All the grit was removed, the trigger breaks at a smooth 4.4 pounds. And now, the trigger resets with a nice kick to my finger.
With these new after market pieces, I think I finally found (For me that is) the perfect gun. The ergonomics fit my hand like a glove, the trigger feels perfect, and I pull of some really nice groups.
Highly recommend apex tactical.
And they're still not any better than an M&P with the Apex kit. Yes, I own both so I compared both at the range after I got my Apex kit installed.ALl a glock needs is a 20 dollar 2lbs. trigger job and you get a nice and crisp trigger pull, I did that on my 19 and 17
Yeah I saw those. Thanks for the heads up though!
browsing gun vids on youtube and ran into this on random. pretty interesting for all of us in this thread and hobby, give it a watch and get a reality check.

Snakedoc is absolutely correct. This demonstration was filled with cops and news crews that were all set up to make the CC fail. This test is not even a shadow of a real situation. The second shooter also knew where the CC was and the CC didn't even know there was going to be a second shooter. I could go on and on about the ridiculous set-up of this video. It carries very little real useable information. It does have a little...but very little.
And Badmoon's point about aiming is about it.
Why do you guys think this video is some sort of conspiracy? i dont understand.
The point of the experiment was not to fail or succeed. it was to see how "normal" people with little to no firearms combat training would react in a situation that would rely on their ability to access and carry out the proper criteria for SAFE and EFFECTIVE firearms usage.
Much like some of you in here who think just because you had prior military training or have a CCW license that you are above and beyond the people in the video. give me a break and get off your high horse. if ____ hit the fan in a public establishment and you had to use your weapon, i highly doubt you guys would perform even close to how YOU think you would.

Those of you who are saying the video is rigged....well yeah it is rigged, it is an experiment where EVERYONE in the room knows what will happen except for one person. That is the ____ing point. The people they were testing all thought it would be a piece of cake to defend themselves if ____ hit the fan, and they ALL got a reality check.
