Ok going out of town on the 8th of Nov so no Tanners for me (the other likely place to handle/buy all these handguns)
so I went to Cabellas today, and did some fit and feel..

from feel, flexibility, trigger ^=up #= splat
M&P CORE ^^# felt really good, 5" (not sure if CORE is requried) Trigger was as expected, bad
PPQm2 ^#^ felt good in the hand, the trigger was WOW!!
FNS-9 ^## the grip texture is kind of weird but seems to work, the point was nice, the trigger is terrible, worse than the M&P (and there is no apex kit for it) :-(
HK vp9 ^## grip felt good, trigger was smooth take up but extremely heavy break, did not like the leaver mag release..
g19 #^# trigger was not bad, feel still blah.. (still not a fan)
sig 320 ### did not feel good in my hands. trigger was very much mil spec, power lifting.

I guess I am a picky bastard..

was talking to a guy I met at the counter, he mentioned that the M&P can do the same trick that Glock does..
where you buy a 40 (shares mags with 357sig).. buy a 9mm barrel, and 9mm mags and have two or three (if you buy a 357sig barrel) calibers capable.
Any one know if the PPQm2 can do the 40 >> 9mm step down? (Google says no..)

I think I am going to hunt down a M&P and a PPQm2 to test fire.
