Frankly I like the M&P over the Glock, not that the G17 is bad, I just think the M&P is a better fit and easier to adapt to peoples hand. I would not be surprised if it comes with a thumb safety. This will make the M&P and the G17 contenders for our replacement program. In a smart world we would just tag along.
