So, the great debate. Was wondering where alot of you guys stand.
Many people trust their lives to Glock, theyre simple, reliable, and accurate. M&P springing up on the market in recent years has quickly taken alot of the market away from Glock, as far as law enforcement issued weapons. So, my question is, [and you can vote] which weapon is better. Hard question, but I gotta ask it.
I own an M&P, have since 2009. Great weapon, no problems with it, looks amazing, handles well, ergonomics are amazing and easily customizable, [but what weapon isnt these days?] Ive probably put close to 8,000 rounds through my weapon in that timem trigger functions flawlessly, completely stock, the adjustable back straps make it easy for me to hold the weapon and adjust it to my perfect fit, the sights, even stock work well for me, [i personally hate the glock sites] and the disassemble is simple.
Ive shot a few glocks in my time, Glock 22, Glock 19, Glock 17, and none of them felt right to me, sites were terrible IMO, trigger was nice, however the grips didnt work well with me, [All the Glocks were Gen 3] and the magazine, although theyre universal, didnt set well with me, for some reason, I just hated them, they were tough and somewhat difficult to completely load, [may have just been my friends, not sure]
M&Ps typically cost just a little more, somewhere in the range of 510.00 as where Glocks [or so Ive seen] are between 380 and 500. I paid around 600 for mine, and dont regret it. Perfect weapon [for me], Now I know Ill probably catch alot of heat for this posting, and Im sure Glock lovers will come out in force, but tell me, what made you choose a Glock over an M&P. Why choose M&P over Glock? I know Glocks got the name and the history behind it, but in my opinion, M&P beat Glock to the punch with the adjustable back straps, and the beautiful look the M&P has. Glocks are just too boxy for my taste.
Although I do want to purchase a Glock in the future, just to say I have one, I dont think Ill carry it too often, if at all. Ive heard people say " You can toss em' in the mud, freeze them in the water, toss em' off a cliff, and theyll still shoot." My question is, why do any of these things to the weapon? Are you in some foreign country doing some Call of Duty things? Doubtful. Im sure the same things could be said about the M&P as well, however, in normal every day activities/carry, youll never do any of these things, unless youve got tons of money to torture test them, dont believe everything you hear.
Heres a video from hickok45 [great gun review guy] I urge ya to watch it. I think he can put a rest to the war between S&W M&P and Glock lol.
