    Sure that's cool for range toys, but if I were a racecar driver I wouldn't practice with a different car then I raced. I like to practice how I play and I feel practicing with two different platforms would be detrimental- especially with the different grip angle between the two. That doesn't mean I can't adapt and shoot either well, but I feel better served choosing one. Of course...training doesn't mean anything anyway so I guess I shouldn't care

    I've got two 23's, and two 9mm conversion barrels and they both run excellent. You will need 9mm mags though. In fact, I haven't shot .40 out of either for quite a while.

    I've also got a .357sig barrel and a .22 conversion kit, so that gives me one gun (a 23) that can fire 4 calibers.

    I'm sure m&p has something similar to this if you buy a .40, so this info is only if you were gonna sell the glock because you couldn't shoot 9mm.


    Or sell the 23 to me for cheap. I'd like one in another color than black.
    This! I've been wanting to do the same thing with a 23.

    I was with you at shootsmart for your first time shoot

Either the one I have has an apex reset or S&W changed it up because it has a very audible and tactile reset unlike all of the others i've seen. The Pre-travel is very mushy but the break is nice and crisp which I like. It will get an apex if I decide to keep it- I like the feel of them a lot.

I also feel like the Glock is more cheaply constructed than the other poly pistols.

    If you like the S&W, I heartily recommend you pick up an XD and give it a few rounds too. I have 1911s and XDs, XDms, and Sigs.

    The scratches don't bother me. Just sent an offer.

    I've owned an xd and shot many variants. I like them. The only gun that compares would be an xdm 3.8 and I wasn't a fan of the one I fondled. Too big/bulky/heavy

    That explains the changes they have made to the trigger parts.


    Interesting articles published by MSW. Update: It was mentioned that the links were not working so I'm also posting the text from the articles. Slide Stop Updates: M&P Production Updates: Slide Stops | Modern Service Weapons The S&W M&P pistol has undergone a great deal of evolution since...
