No issues. =) Quite a few folks cant post to the right topic. =) But those are typically, new to computers folks. That is what I was hoping for. We quickly found out that it was not the case. =)

and he was so into "how do i get rid of this forum dabbler name"

 

Somebody told him to go premier to get rid of it..

alright, lets get it back on track for the people that care.

 

Both guns are good, shoot them both.

I hate to take credit for it but.....that was me too

 

Anyway, like Maks said, try both. They really are different guns, and you will never get the right answer FOR YOU from everyone here. Like I said.....the more accurate gun will be the one that fits your hand and points naturally.

Am I still on NJGunforums or did I wander over to one of those elitist, know it all gun sites? Where's all the love?

This guy is banned now? For what?

Isn't there a moderator forum where you can ask this question instead of trying to stir the pot here Ray??

One problem arises.....only moderators have access to the moderator forum.

I'm not stirring the pot, I just want to know what this guys intentions where.

Nice to see the M&P getting some love here.

Why one is comparing a fullsize 9mm w/ 17rnd mags to a fullsize .45 is a little off for me, but to each their own....

 

Owning 5 Glocks, an M&P and having owned and sold 2 XD's......

 

The only one I'd stay away from is the XD. I know some people love them. The fellow member who bought my XD45Tactical, was on his 10th. No, not buying and selling 10. The one he bought from me was the 10th in his collection. To be fair, of the XD's, the .45 is the one to get. It seemed to be slightly better constructed, had a more consistent trigger and was easier to be accurate on vs the XD9 Tactical, that I had also purchased at that time (remember those days of buying 2 handguns at once???? ). I'd be curious to try one w/ a trigger job.

 

Both Glocks and M&P's have their own quirks. Users are finding out that new production Glocks (both Gen3 and Gen4) have issues w/ the extractor. I have both a Gen3 and Gen4 that I have ZERO issues with. Also, Gen4's may have issues w/ recoil spring weights. Again, mine are fine. Have 1K plus through both pistols. M&P's generally get after market trigger parts through Apex. Also, for me, even though the M&P comes w/ different backstraps, I can't say the ergo's on any of them are ideal. I'm sure this is blasphemy to the M&P world, but I find my Glocks better ergonomically, especially, the Gen4's.

 

You really have to go shoot them to see the differences.

which is better?

 

That is like apples and oranges.

45acp vs 9mm

 

The 34 is really a comp gun and unless you have any intention of competing, there's no point. I dislike xd's so I won't comment about them.

 

All depends on how you look at it.

Think of it as a glock 17 with a longer slide.
