I've been lurking in this forum for months now, and finally decided to register.
I bought my first handgun (a Hammerli Trailside) a little over a year ago, and I was hooked. I knew I wanted a 9 mm next, but wanted to read up before making a decision. Nine months ago, I was sure I wanted an XD. Then I started reading about the M&P. The more I read, the more I liked. There were a number of factors involved, but in the end it was the discussions in this forum that convinced me. I bought an M&P9 a little over a month ago, and I love it. I picked up a magazine storage pouch and some snap caps from the mp-store, and I'm all set.
Of course, now there is the issue of the forthcoming 5" model . . .
