3rd gen Glock or M&P.

I've shot a lot of plastic pistols but only own a Glock 19.
I gotta admit I basically liked them all...........they were all pretty easy to shoot half way decently, which is all I am capable of anyways. |

I carry and compete with Glocks (19, 17, 30S & 21SF), my wife carries and competes with an M&P c and a full size M&P, both 9mm. A lot of my friends and fellow IDPA shooters carry/compete with XD & XDms. I see them have some problems with them every now and then. I tried the XDm, but didn't care for it.

I've never shot an M&P so I have no opinion on that brand. I believe Glock has a simpler and overall better design. Add to this the aftermarket and LE support for the Glock and there is no competition.

Can't go wrong with Glock, HK, FNP, or M&P
There are enough good brands to use one that best fits your hands and naturally points the best for you. |

I'm really liking the CZ75-P-07. Only had it for a couple of months but love the trigger. http://ssguiderods.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/CZ-75-P-07-Duty.jpg dp I've been thinking about picking one of these up. I really enjoy my Steyr S9 for carry

Glock with the hump pushed in. The M&P a close second with Apex parts. I'd skip the XD's. FN worked good but mags are expensive and not as much support.
Had all 4. |

Got one of the Austrian made G19's that came in about 5 years ago and it shoots great. XD all day long

Hand size, and bore height vs how you naturally aim should be factored and the only way you do that is shoot all the potential pistols.
For me its S&W M&P. Out of the four pistols XD, USP, Glock, and the M&P. The smith was way more accurate for me. The USP was a close 2nd. Triggers all suck from the factory, but really How much Koolaid do you have to drink to say a Glock trigger is better than a M&P?

I agree with all those that say you should try them all and pick the one you shoot best.
For me it was an XD-40. I have it in all three sizes. XD-40 SubCompact is my carry gun. XD-40 Service is in nightstand. My XD-40 Tactical has 30,000+ round through it now, mostly shooting USPSA matches and still going strong. |

Glock 19 in my opinion.
It is not the most "pretty", it is not the most comfortable grip(not uncomfortable, but not most comfortable). It may not even be the most accurate, and it does not have the best trigger. But it is absolutely 100% consistent. It has never, and will likely never fail me. It points naturally for me. It is pretty dang accurate for me If I could only have one handgun, it would be my G19(and a 22lr conversion). Here is mine next to my 1911. My 1911 .45 which cost twice as much, holds half as much, and jams sometimes. But is beautiful and more accurate.

I have owned or currently own the following polymer pistols Glock 17 and 21 Springfield Armory XD H&K USP and P2000 S&W M&P 9 Although I cant say anything bad about any of them, I now only own the Glocks. I just shoot them better than the others. It is a personal choice for any shooter |

I shoot the M&P much better, so to me, it's the better of the two and what I carry. YMMV |

For plastic, I prefer the M&Ps.
Are they " the best"? Damned if I know; but I like their ergos more than the others. Mine have been reliable for a total of almost 17,000 rounds of assorted ammunition right out of he box,which makes them reliable enough IMO. There are quite a few fine plastic guns to choose from these days. |
