M&P9 safety or not?

[GD2A]

Hmmm ... perhaps I was right to walk away. These comments do not inspire confidence. The wallet and principles came to terms but my gut overruled after considering purchasing a Pro but seeing the comments. Maybe there's more to the crazy low prices than meets the eye. I did try and contact the company to verify but ran into their hopelessly poor communication.

With $435 seeming to be the best price for a base M&P9 from a reputable vendor, the Glock 19 is looking better for $100 more. PSA has a deal right now on a Gen 4 with a range case a factory 33 round mag thrown in.

Any thoughts?

Get the M&P and don't look back. Forget what Slickguns said about them.

If they're good enough for Jerry Miculek and plenty of others, they're good enough for me.

They feel much better in your hand than a Glock also!

If this ups the ante any, here you go...2 free mags with any M&P purchase now through Dec. 3rd.

I have to agree with the chimp on this. Altho the is a good purchase, I believe the M&P will serve you just as well or better.

The Slickguns comments had nothing to do with the product, rather it was the shady seller.

All I'm saying is if a G19 is within $100 of a M&P9, it would be hard to pass on the Glock.

Oh, so you're buying used then?

I bought one gun used on the internet, but I had Cotep'er that lived near the guy check it out first. If not, no way jose to buying a used gun, especially a polymer gun off the internet without a visual inspection first.

If you're referring to the reported misrepresentation on the part of Botach; no thank you, I'm looking for a new gun if I'm buying online. It seems their prices are crazy low because their guns are not NIB.

Anyway, I might still try the M&P9 but it's less attractive when the savings is only $100 or so compared to a G19. Not a slight against S&W, Lord knows they're my #1 revo but I've had Glocks since the 90's and feel very comfortable with them.

I've decided to sit on the sidelines and see what Black Friday deals manifest. Afterall, we're not talking 1911's here ... just an extra gun for an extra caliber
