Thanks for the great info!
To me, and this is just my opinion, the perfect CCW would have to be a revolver.
No jams, no FTE's, no bs. My recent experience with my M&P .45 I bought confirms how I feel about semi autos as it jammed after only about 200 rounds through it. I like target shooting the .45, but would feel very antsy about depending on it in a life or death situation. Call me paranoid, but even one jam at the wrong time means bad things can happen. I am not willing to compromise the safety of myself or my family by depending on a piece of equipment that may or may not be 100% reliable.
Since my CCW for the last few years has been a Model 442 .38 spl carried IWB, I am almost positive I am going to buy the M&P 340. Just seems to me that the M&P J frame is similar to my 442, but with a little more stopping power.
Thanks for all the help.
