Sunday morning sacrilege 

I like it.

Need to find a 2.0 I can fondle. Was thinking about getting a G34 but might get a 2.0 with the long barrel instead.

Neither SIG, HK, Walther, nor S&W products have the Springfield Armory GRIP ZONE.

Glock needs to introduce some new and more up to date  products.

Which is why HK dominates in competition.

I like the P30, I'm about to stuff one into my pants to carry today (like just about every day), but while HK makes a great gun, their triggers suck.  Their DA sucks (long, gritty, heavy), C&L SA is something a 1911 does better, and the LEM (my favorite by the way) is bettered by the LEM in the USP series with its shorter reset.  The P30 LEM is improved with the use of the V4.1 parts, but still could use the shorter reset of the USP.

I really don't get this. It's WAY better than the staple gun trigger on a Glock and nobody seems to worry about that. The design of the M&P also gives far greater options for "upgradeability". Swap out your connector on a Glock and you just end up with a lighter staple gun. Swap in an APEX sear and you can completely transform the M&P.

I own and carry both designs.

That's the dumbest argument I've seen yet. This is a site full of people willing to drop $200+ on a SSA-E or similar. There's a million connector and spring kits out there for Glock, but you're going to knock people for spending 100 bucks on their M&P.

Pretty damn good is a bit of a stretch.

But even with a "pretty ok" trigger I can outshoot guns with actual pretty damn good triggers.

Battle of the McPistols.

IMO, if I was gonna roll a McPistol, it'd probably be a safety equipped M&P 45 2.0 with some Apex kit in it though.

But, every poly framed striker gun pales in comparison to a 1911, S&W 39/5904/439/3913/3914/5906/etc, FN Hi-Power, Beretta 92, SIG P229, SIG P210, CZ-75, or something like that.

But I suppose if I had to roll one, it'd be an M&P 45 2.0. Either that or a USP 9 Compact with their match trigger kits, and aftermarket sights.

A SIG 2022 with aftermarket sights would be high on that list too.

I don't think so. And certainly not better than any glock trigger after you spend 15 minutes with some flitz.

There is nothing you can do to that stupid hinged trigger except replace it. If M&Ps are so fantastic why does the trigger get replaced in almost every one?

Glock triggers are not particularly good, and replacing them is an act of futility. There's something inherent in the design that just doesn't seem to make for a particularly good trigger. I've even played with some full retard $2k+ Glocks, and they still have mediocre triggers.

The trigger on a bone stock PPQ or P320 handily beats even the best Glock triggers I've ever played with. M&Ps suffer from some variation in production, but I've played with some pretty awesome M&Ps triggers.

You've got your die hard glock fans, which I can relate to, and you've got your fan boys, which are annoying.
One has trigger time on several makes of guns and has decided that glock works best for them. The other is just following the recommendation of their favorite internet celebrity.
When Haley and Costa were pimping M&P 45s, those same guys were snatching them up and proclaiming them to be the greatest gun ever.

Tried two different new 1.0s and got tired of the poor accuracy. I had a beat to hell M&p40 that I liked though. For some reason it was accurate and it had a terrible trigger. I like my .22 M&p too, but I am sticking with glocks for 9mm.

Recoil is definitely softer on an M&p than a Glock though.

Let me sum these threads into one post.

Why my pistol is better than yours.
M&P: Everything Glock wishes/should be
Glock: Because it's a Glock.
HK: Go be poor somewhere else.
CZ: Master race.
SA: It seems like it works.
Walther: Best stock trigger evah!
Steel DA/SA: Plastic is bullshit.
1911: Moses.
One revolver guy: I've never felt under gunned.

Glock really needs to update its product line in order to keep up with those currently offered by competing companies.

For one thing, Glock needs to offer some new, more ergonomic pistols,  including guns that don't require them to be "fired" as part of the disassembly process.

They really need some totally new products since they no longer own the market anymore.

That inherent design problem is the "Safe Action" trigger. No matter how much you work on it, it will still be a double action trigger. The reason its competitors have better triggers is because they have fully pre-set strikers, essentially making them single action.
