Looking for a polymer .40, give me your thoughts

[Sydwaiz]

M&P! I just brought mine home last night! Talk about comfortable and pointing naturally.

Sig Pro 2022. High end quality without the high end price with a really sweet trigger.

I like the feel of my Walther P99 in .40 S&W

Recently tried out a S&W M&P in .40. I was really impressed. Felt really comfortable in my small/medium hands. I like the sights and trigger compared with other polymer guns I've tried. Easy to shoot, surprised recoil seemed so low. Only shot one other .40 a USP definitely liked the M&P a lot more.

I looked into the Steyer and it seems to be on a nat'l back order. Im leaning heavily towards the M&P but we will see this weekend at the range...

Check Gunbroker for the Steyr. I just picked one up off of there, had the seller ship it without mags and got some 10 rounders from CDNN. The Steyr is absolutely worth the extra effort, it's a truly excellent gun with the best DAO trigger I've ever felt.

Well, it looks like the Smith&Wesson M&P is the winner! Cant wait to get this baby home. I hate Cali waiting periods...

[offrdmania]

I see that on the m&P .45 that there is a thumb safety, but does anybody know if you can get the thumb safety installed on a .40 instead of the keyed safety?

[Teletiger7]

whats the reason for going with polymer?

Light weight. Easier to carry all day if you have to pack a bunch of other stuff with you.

I have been looking for a while and so far have concluded that im not a fan of Glock,...

Too bad. Glocks are great pistols.



G35 and G23 are my personal favorites.

I picked up my M&P .40 yesterday afternoon and went straight to the range for a shakedown. Went through about 400 rounds. I love this gun!!

Congrats! That's the one I have, and I couldn't agree more =D

Once in a while you can still find a Steyr M40. I've got one and I love it!! Better ergonomics and sighting and overal build quality than any other gun I've ever shot. They should be releasing the S40-A1 (small frame) here in the summer and I'm really looking forward to getting one.



I think it is literally one of the best guns on the market, and seriously under-rated.

+1,

I bought one last year and it is fast becoming my favorite lightweight pistol. (Nohing will ever replace a good 1911 for me)

The only problem is that Wifezilla loves it and she wants to keep it with a laser mounted for the house gun but I bought it to get back into competition and I want to use it for that.

I'm going to have to buy her another polymer gun with a rail just to get it back.

I have been looking for a while and so far have concluded that im not a fan of Glock, I was looking at the Taurus 24/7 Pro until I found out that it cant be bought in Cali. So im back to square 1. Im looking for a pistol approx 4", adjustable sights, good quality at a decent price, .40 S&W caliber and a comfy grip. Please let me know what else is out there that can be had in cali and please post pics of what youve got which will give me ideas.

Lol not fan of Glock but of fan of Taurus.


Hey you like then great, congrats on you new gun
