[QUOTE="willnotgoquietly, post: 865700, member: 9416"] Hello. My First post here. I have carried CCW for about a year. I know how you feel with one in the pipe, but as others have said, it is the only way to go. When your start carrying your weapon in public, you will feel that everyone somehow knows. They don't and don't care. You weapon won't fire unless you pull the trigger. Put it in a holster that covers the trigger and don't touch it while your out. Be careful about pushing on it, messing with the holster, or resting you hand on it. It will feel really weird, but it won't fall out. I would add to the other post's that you need to get to know your weapon. I have 3 CCW pistols, Sm 38 spl, LCP and Glock 19 now and can tell you that they all have good points and bad. No one pistol will ever be perfect for every outing. As another poster said a small J Frame might make you feel better about caring one in the pipe. You really have to want to pull the trigger on those things. That said, it was not long before the Glock 19 became my primary carry. After shooting it many, many times and studying the three safties I am 100% confident that it will not go off without pulling the trigger. Mine stays in a holster [Loaded] unless it is getting shot at the range, cleaned or I'm dry firing in my back room pointed in a safe direction. You can't go wrong with that. Your M&P is a fine weapon, You only need a good holster. With some time, you will be comfortable, without ever worrying about a discharge as long as it stays in the leather. J PS. Practice, practice, practice keeping your finger in register. [/QUOTE]
