Gee, if thats not irony. Didnt you start all the crap in the this thread? You surely didnt show the OP that same respect. I'm sure he didnt want his thread to degrade into this.
Intresting.... Glock Tested thread

I didn't read the OP or look at the link provided and nor do I intend to. I've only come here to tell you that my M&P can take anything a GLOCK can take and more.
Anytime I hear anyone say anything positive about GLOCK pistols, I feel it's my civic duty to shame them thoroughly and completely.
Everyone I have let shoot my M&P, from experienced shooters to the neighborhood children , have without fail shot sub-moa at ranges that would boggle the mind of GLOCK shooters.
Furthermore, any GLOCK owners who I have let touch my M&P with their filthy hands, have immediately torch cut their GLOCKS rather than sell them. They made that sacrifice so that no one else will make the same pathetic mistake that they did.
Have you even seen the super cool squiggly slide serrations on the M&P? HAVE YOU?
I rest my case.

I understand where you are coming from. My point is that you shouldn't use your status as a credential to lend legitimacy to your viewpoint, it you aren't able to back it up. He may well be what he says, but what is the point of claiming it on the internet?
But I will drop the issue. I really wasnt trying to start anything, and didnt mean to disrespect anyone. Glock threads seem to bring out the worst in all of us.

That right there is some funny stuff. Did you know that M&Ps are made of unobtanium? Its a rare precious metal that can only be made by feeding stainless steel and depleted uranium to a goat and then harvesting it from its colon 13.7 years later.

Even after seeing that, I still do not regret my decision to sell my two Glocks in favor of my M&P 40 FS and M&P 9c. I still regard this to be the best firearm decision of my life.
Everyone has heard by now the differences in the two brands, so I won't go down that road. If you have been in a cave for the last couple of years and haven't had a chance to hold or fire a M&P semi-auto, you owe it to yourself to do it. I cannot think of one LEO who has made the switch from a Glock to an M&P who hasn't seen an immediate improvement in qualifying scores.
Smith & Wesson was aiming squarely at Glock when they designed the M&P, and by most accounts they overshot the mark.

I know exactly how you feel. I consider my decision to go to the M&P to be the high point of my life, with the birth of my children a close second.
I love my children, but not as much as I hate Glocks.
Not only to yourself, but to America. Unless you hate America.

conwict,
I laughed out loud when I saw that picture.
Yeah, M&P versus Glock, whatever works for you. I like the made in the U.S.A. angle. Although I'm not used to an American firearms product that stands up favorably to what the rest of the world has to offer!!!
....and remember, arguing with someone online is like the special olympics, even if you win you're still a ******.

Thats what it is about. The current class of polymer wonder guns are almost all the same as far as reliability, function, and accuracy. Its just a matter of personal opinion and preference. The problem is too many people around here cant seperate the opinion from fact.
What I wonder is if people who argue so rabidly about the marketing tactics, grip angles, rifling, and other relative minutiae of Brand X and Brand Y come anywhere close to pushing the limits of any gun they own.
Sure, regardless of skill and competence and experience one wants the best gun fit and best gun for the buck. That provides an edge, providing you can come close to hitting what you aim at.
But extensive arguments about said minutiae, to me, have an air of pomposity that implies the speakers have no more work to do, that they've "arrived" at an elite skill level, and frankly I'm tired of the preaching even if that's so.

STOP MAKING SENSE, PLEASE!!!
That's not what this is all about, my gun is better than your's and my choice is more informed than their's.
Listen, do what I say and buy brand X because it meets the criteria that I set forth in my head. I may not have experience with said gun but "on paper" it looks/sounds/seems good.
Conwict, I agree with you completely. One thing that is COMPLETELY overlooked in the Glcok vs the world discussion is the simple matter of "fit". Some guns just don't fit you well. Even if two guns have equal mechanical accuracy its entirely possible that one might fit you or your hand better and allow you to shoot better with it. On of the first things I do with a pistol is close my eyes, bring it up to eye level and aim at an imaginary object. When I open my eyes I see where the gun is pointed. The Glock with its steep grip angle invariably aims high (not so much with the compact but the full size). I can point at things all day with my P7 and when I check the sights they are spot on. It is incredibly suited to my hand. The same with my M&P. I've shot steel frame Smiths in the past that were very mechanically accurate but when I shot with them I just couldn't seem to hit where I was aiming or it took a lot of effort to hit where I wanted. A gun that suits you, is pointable, and fits your hand is going to allow you to shoot better with less effort than one that doesn't.
