What do you think of this pistol in 9mm? Other than size how would you compare it to the M&P C?

My nephew has one. I have shot it. Very nice gun. They guys at Cabela's told me they had it on sale a few weeks ago and sold 80 in less then a week. I don't care for poly guns but I do want one of these. Great carry gun.

I love mine! It's my EDC. Carry it in a DeSantis Intruder IWB. Get the Pierce grip extensions for the 7 round mags, and improve the grip. Gets all 4 fingers without adding the extra length of the 8 round magazines. It may be a polymer firearm, but it's well made, and shoots very good! I've put hundreds of varying rounds through it with out one hiccup! If you can, rent one before you commit. It will be worth it.

As compared to a 9c, it's very similar sized, but wider. I prefer the 9c for many things, but warmer weather carry is the Shield 9mm. I have the 9c, and a Full Size M&P Pro. Obviously, I'm prejudiced, but the 9c has more ammo capacity, but doesn't conceal as well. It works great with a shoulder holster. Good luck making your decision.

My wife loves hers! I have no experience with the 9c but for a polly gun it's ok and conceals great.
