Nice! I'd like to try them both if you don't mind. I'll have the S&W, Kahr CW9 & an STG-556 w/me.

Glad your diggin on your M&P, btw, for that mag slam thing and for the Glock crowd as well, when the slide 'Autoforwards" that technically is a MALFUNCTION. Take care on pounding that mag in. never a need to slam that hard and that action causes undo wear on the slide release and the magazine release notch........Just sayin :)

i really do see alot of Glocks do that and those shooters MAKING their guns do that, kinda cringe, hope all is well with the relationship between the trigger and trigger finger as in way far away.

sure thing, im thinking of putting my 150 dollar card towards my own pps :)

i did just relaize that the sig i got is the old frame not the new module but from what im reading its 40 bucks for the new frame module and people prefer the old more anyways.

Of course. I'll probably bring a few extra toys too, not sure what yet.

It was great meeting everyone there this morning, many thanks for letting me try the Sigs, CZ, .40's, Glocks & .357 snubbie! I concur, we'll have to do this again some time!  ;D

Wife liked the S&W M&P9 but felt it was too large and the Kahr simply has too much recoil for her.
Ended up getting her an M&P9c w/the same APEX parts as my fullsize M&P9.
Tried them both side-by-side and I was pleasantly surprised to learn that I shoot the 9c almost as well as the fullsize.
This led me to my other post about possibly replacing the fullsize w/a 9c that would do double duty for nightstand & CCW.
So far the M&P's have turned out to be the best pistols I've ever owned.
Tomac
ETA: Had to sell my FN57, Beretta Tomcat & the Kahr to finance all this but it was enough to pay for the M&P9 and *two* M&P9c's (my 9c is on the way!).

My S&W M&P9 w/wife's M&P9c, both w/APEX parts & Meprolight night sights (thx, Robert!):
