Well I posted a few days ago about questions I had about the M&P 9mm sub-compact for the wife, and after many responses from the forum singing it's praises, I sprung for one last night. I looked at 2 9mm XD's, 1 was blue for $499 and 1 was stainless for $599. I also looked at 2 G26's 1 used with night sigts for $429 and 1 new one for $549 w/o night sights. I then looked at the M&P, which they had on sale for $539. I liked all the guns really well, and had a tough time making a decision but went with the M&P. One deciding factor was the changable grips, which I thougt might fit her hand better. I really liked the XD in stainless except for the price, and it being a little blocky. I thought the M&P had a resonable price and like I said it got great reviews from you guys. So in the end I hope she likes it, find out tomorrow night. Thanks and MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!!!:santaclaus:

Lucky lady! She will love your gift of gun.
Of the handguns your researched for your wife, the M&P is the one that will most likely fit her. The M&P already has the most natural feel to it and is only made better by personalizing it with the best fitting back strap.

You think that's bad? Someone tried to charge him $600 bucks for a $250 Croatian gun just because it had a stainless slide and a slick marketing campaign!
Sorry, I couldn't help myself.
Seriously, congrats on the M&P, it's my favorite of the ones you looked at.

A pistol for your better half for Christmas. Nothing says you love her better than that IMO. Good man!

Wish I would have come across one of those G26 deals. Waiting on my GSSF voucher so I can get my wife her G26 at LE pricing. Brand new $432 tax included. It's worth the wait. Limited to non-existent supply on the G26 in our area right now and what there is new goes average $545 out the door. My yearly membership in GSSF will net us at least a $100 savings on the Glock.

Thanks guys, I let her open it tonight and I think she really liked it. The wife said she could not wait to shoot it. Good choice after all, I had second thoughts about buying it for her as a gift. Now I am glad I got it.
Merry Christmas to all of you.:santaclaus:
