New toy...

M&P45c, I hear they're pretty hard to find right now. Awaiting my kydex scabbard from White Hat Holster... anyone else shoot one of these??

I put about 40 rounds through it the other day, REALLY smooth .45 crazy accurate as well. I dig.

I haven't shot a compact but I have shot the full size 45 and I really liked it. I've thought about picking one up to throw in the carry rotation or pick up a full size as a bed side gun. Either way you can't go wrong with a M&P!

[dbla]

Yeah I really like that it has a 4" barrel and not a 3.5"... Grip is still nicely and small, fits my hand great.

Same here. The full size is a real sweatheart. Haven't shot the compact yet, but hear lots of love from the folks that have them.

Yup, just got off the phone with S&W, they're sending me another extended magazine floorplate, no charge. Great company.

I had to add some short extenders to my Glock 36. Little sucker tries to squirm right out of your hand.

did they use the same approach Springfield did with the XD45 and leave the fullsize slide and just chop the grip down?

[Patton]

Yeah the XD and the M&p use the same upper for compact and service models.

Yeah it's just a shortened grip. But it conceals pretty well. Not bad for carring 2070gr of lead. ;-)

not at all. makes for a more controllable gun too. hardest part about tucking the XD Service is the big freakin' grip hanging out.
