I'm torn between 2 different pistols. I like them both, I shot them both. And they are the same price except the S&W has a $50 rebate right now. Any opinions on either the Glock 26 or 27 against the S&W M&P Compact? Which one would you get and why? or If you own it...why? Thanks!

I have the Glock 27. It is a great concealed carry gun. I typically have it on my hip, but depending on what I am waering I sometimes wear it on my ankle. The gun is very accurate, and it is a Glock so you can't go wrong with reliability or durability.

I have no first-hand experience with the S&W, but I have not heard anything bad about it either.

I was checkin out the S&W last night. I've pissed around with them a few times...and really do like them a lot, and considered one. I carry a Springfield XD40, and I plan on getting the compact version, just for interchangability of magazines, etc. It may be worth looking in to them as an option as well. I shoot the shit out of it, and have never had a single complaint!

I tried the Springfield XD compact at the local range here last week and didn't like it that much. The trigger was the main thing. Yeah I know the glock is set up similar, but they were different trigger pulls. Hmmm....crap I really don't know. I really don't feel like spending more money at the range to try them both out again but crap I might have to.

Come out to the range with us sometime and you are more than welcome to pop off a few mags with my Glock.

Well I just purchased the S&W M&P. I went to the range and tried both out again. Let me know when you guys go to the range again. Bill S. and I will join you guys.

We were planning on heading out earlier today, but the rain prevented it.

I am sure we will be at the range next weekend if not sooner. There are quite a few of us on here with some new toys to break in.
