I'm posting this on a few boards to get responses in regard to the
M&P. A gun that attracted my attention and that of my better half.
While on vacation in northern Idaho and Spokane last week and
over the weekend.
We had a chance to stop by the fairly new Cabela's, in Post Falls, Idaho.
Our first but very memorable trip to a Cabelas. Even on saturday evening the place was full of people, especially looking or buying guns.
I spotted a RAMI P (polymer frame) model for the low price of $449.
Upon checking out out, I found it to be much like my carry gun, a regular alloy framed RAMI, but the trigger pulls in both DA and SA
strongly reminded me of a stock 75B.
Something that would improve with use, but still not as nice as my
gun when new or especially now around the 1,000 round mark.
Sights were basic CZ glow sights, and not the tritium kind as reported on the RAMI BD models that have shipped in recent months.
All in all. As a decicated RAMI fan and owner. I'd buy the RAMI P
if I was in the market for a replacement.
I also looked at the SIG P250 and was impressed how well my hand fit, as opposed to the P226 DAK that I handled next, which felt fat and
bulky/clumsy compared to the light and slim P250 wonder gun.
The 250 DAO pull was acceptable to me and the nites were very nice, too. However, I thought that the DAK was heavy and even sluggish.
I then explored other parts of the store and products such a G.Loomis rods. Was nice to see all the neat stuff, but wanted to get back to the Hunting section.
With Nancy in tow. We handled a Glock 19..and then I took a chance and asked to check out the S&W Military/Police Compact in 9mm.
Myself, having handled the full sized version at Gunshows before.
Had never dry-fired one.
With permission, I was expecting the trigger to be exactly or worse than a SIGMA's.
Wow!, Was I ever wrong!
Steady, smooth travel rearward until it broke crisply.
The I rest the gun and tried it again. Same excellent results.
Nancy was curious and asked to try it.
She liked the light weight, and the ergonomics, but Loved that
short and light trigger!
Commenting on well the gun pointed for her and how much easier the
trigger was than on a Glock 19.
I'd have to agree, but wonder if this display gun has any work to it, or had been dry fired alot?
In any event. I can see a M&PC doing duty as an optional carry gun for me in the future. Probably another one for my also impressed wife
unit!
I think that it would also be good to buy an American made auto
for once!
