I shot match at Beallsville Sportsmen Club in Beallsville, OH this past Sunday - matches year round first Sunday of the month. First time there - bit of a drive for me but had a great time and well worth the trip. http://www.beallsvillesportsmansclub.blogspot.com/ Yes this was outdoors - fun in the mud.
4 stages and I did 2 go rounds with the M&P then 1 with my Glock 34 which I've been shooting since the year Glock introduced the 34. I'm a bit more accurate so far with the Glock but so far not a whole lot of difference between I'm pleased to say between the M&P and the Glock for me.
I was shooting Winchester White Box. Only one problem with the M&P - I had a jam at the very end of the reshoot on a swinger. It may have been a failure to extract as posted on other forums posted, but since I was trying to clear in a hurry I didn't take note. What I ended up with was a partially seated round in chamber that was a bit difficult to clear. Since I already had 1 shot on the swinger there was no use time wise after clearing to take a 2nd shot. Down -5.
My 34 doesn't exactly like Whitebox, lately I always have failures to go bang with the Glock. Besides the 1 problem between a practice session Thursday and the Sunday match the M&P flawlessly fired around 150 rounds of White Box and another 100 rounds of Remington UMC. Sure eniough in a reshoot the Glock had two failures to go bang on White Box.
For the hell of it here's what the stages looked like for me. I'm just an average shooter in IDPA shooting MM class.

Well God willing and the creeks don't rise looks like 2007 will be a fun year with my new M&P. BTW, this was my first match after the great Burwell trigger job and install of FO sight. I shot one match before Dan did his magic.
