I know I asked about the M&P in the other forum but this is a somewhat different question. I am considering the M&P 9mm with Night Sights for $560. I have a total of $600 that I am willing to put into this. I prefer to not go over but if I do I have a NIB Weatherby Vanguard .257 WBY Magnum that I will trade in since I am not fond of $2 per round ammo... I like 1911s but didn't think I could get a decent one for $600ish. I want the gun to go bang when I pull the trigger and I want it to hit roughly in the same zip code by the way...
I want an autoloader that can be used for CCW, HD, and Range fun... I don't really want a revolver at this point and time but probably will get one in the future. This is my first handgun purchase... I have experience with them but never actually owned one since I am 23 and the past 2 years didn't really allow for the extra cash to blow on it... Now my gf is pregnant so I figured I better use my extremely small window of opportunity to buy a handgun lol.
I just want some ideas on what I should look at since my purchase will be made in a few weeks... I may sound like a broken record BUT I am looking for as much info as humanly possible before I drop the cash into it. I already have experience with the XD line as well and if I go poly it will more than likely be to S&Ws M&P... I don't have a range nearby to rent from either so I am putting full faith into you guys to not steer me wrong... I will try before I buy if possible but for the most part I will only be able to handle and not fire.
Sooo let the knowledge flow...
