Hello, all.
So, I've decided to get rid of the S&W 638 & P-3AT that I never shoot to fund a new double-stack, sub compact 9mm. I feel that one of the following would be a great addition to slot in-between my Kahr PM9 (Pocket Carry) and the my CZ-75b/Glock 17 (Service). So the question becomes: WHICH ONE.
I've narrowed down the choices to: 1. Glock 26 2. M&P9c 3. XD-9SC
So the G26 would seem like the no-brainer, given that I own the G17 and can use those mags, but there are a few problems. First, the 10+1 capacity is getting pretty close to my Kahr PM9, and if I'm gonna carry IWB, I'd like something a little more potent. Second, I HATE HATE HATE the way the 4th Gen feels, with all of that rough stipeling.
I handled all three today and here are my impressions: The M&P9c and the XD-9SC are about even. The XD has a slight capacity advantage (13+1 instead of 12+1) and the M&P seems to have slightly better ergonomics. Both triggers seem more crisp than Glock, with the XD being shorter and the M&P being more, I don't know, constant. Anyhow, I'm really torn.
I wish there was a way to rent both and shoot both. :banghead:
