You bet, in fact I've done it before.....So, if you buy one brand of car, that is a "lemon", you NEVER try that brand of car again ?????

I know of several people on various boards who were Glock guys, did the M&P thing for awhile, and ended up going back to Glock.

I tend to watch what a lot of competative shooters use in the BrianEnos forums. Glock has been the main gun used in Production class for years. I've seen several folks switch over the last few years, doing like many and swapping out the internals for Apex parts.
Why do I care what competative shooters use? Because they generally put more rounds down range in practice and competition than most. They have to know there gun is going to work, or it costs them in time and points.
Some switch to the M&P and love it. Others switch, find it wasn't to their liking, and go back to their Glocks. Others think about it and don't think it's worth the hassle to replace all their gear and try to find mags. Even more don't like having to swap out so much to get the trigger to feel and reset like the Glocks.
I think those that start with an M&P like them more, because they don't compair everything they do to their previous gun.
I like Glocks, but I personally don't think I'd do better or worse if I shot a match with a Glock34/M&P Pro/XDm 5.25
I had the large backstrap in it. Next time I'll bring along the med and small size backstraps and convert you on the spot.I will also add that I did dry fire a fellow INGO member's m&p that had an amazing trigger job done to it that took care of the trigger problem, but I still just did not like the feel of the gun in my hand at all.
Picked up a Smith and Wesson M&P9C for my wife. I ended up carrying it more than her when I wanted something smaller than my Glock 21SF. While carrying the MP, twice I had an issue with the magazine falling out in public. Very embarrassing and noticed that the magazine release was light. Sold it and used my GSSF certificate and bought the Glock 30SF.
I really like and respect the Smith and Wesson M&P and would buy another. But I know my Glock inside and out after attending a Glock Armorer Class, so I will stick with it.
My first gun was a Kimber chambered in 10mm, loved the round but it felt like a brick. So I put it in the safe and went to buy a Glock 20. Felt great and loved the gun, before I knew it within a year I had the 17, 27, and 29 to go along with it. I was never totally sold on glocks grip, I just never really cared for it, so I went and looked at the m&p9 and ended up buying it. Thought the grip was amazing and the pistol actually looked somewhat nice. After spending some money to get the trigger the way I wanted, it became the perfect shooter for me. I still love my glocks, but for some reason I just can't pick them over my mp.
