Well i just bought an M&P 9 today. Waiting to see what i think of it after shooting but in the hand i love it and the ergonomics are better for me than a factory glock which i carry a G19 slightly customized to my tastes. but i will say the slide release is on the tough side and would like to see an extended version or something to help with that. after putting the extended slide release on my glock i have no complaints for it as far as a carry weapon.
