FINALLY!
I have written more than 1 email to S&W since the M&P came out, politely advising them of their rampant stupidity in refusing to produce an M&P 9 the exact size of the Glock 19. In my opinion, the Glock 19 is the perfect size for carry. Kind of a Goldilocks gun, not too big, not too small. 5" tall and a 4" barrel. Perfect.
I already know I will be buying this new M&P compact 9mm 2.0. It's what I've wanted from the beginning. There's no way that a Glock, any generation, can match the ergonomically correct grip of the M&P. Finger grooves or not.
