I am thinking of adding one to my collection. So I went out and shot an M&P 9, Glock 17, Steyr and an XD.
I liked the trigger and feel of the M&P. Thought the Glock's trigger was a little heavy and the feel was OK. I liked the front sight on the Steyr but other than that thought it was an OK gun. I liked the trigger and the feel of the XD but have a concern over the grip safety. I would say that overall it would be a tie between the XD and the M&P. Maybe a slight edge to the M&P due to the lack of grip safety.
I would say I shot all of them about equally.
These are my top four and the only ones I am considering let me hear your opinions of these four guns.
