- I talk about both the Smith and Wesson M&P 2.0 and the Glock pistol. I also compare some of their features and go over the pros and cons of both.

Coming from an M&P guy, I have to COMPLIMENT you on your very FAIR, EVEN and REASONED analysis. Your a credit to the handgun community. For being a Glock guy, your able to put your Glock bias in check and and be objective. God bless and thank you brother.
The m&p is an awesome gun. I haven't tried one since I had an old gen 1 m&p years ago and I'm glad I gave it a chance. This thing is great right out of the box. Thanks for the kind comment.
Nothing against Glock, but M&P for me. I think everyone should use what they like and what works for them.
I don't think it's good to try to convince anyone which is better. Each one has its merits. Guns, like other things are totally subjective. Sure there are bad quality guns like anything else, but between these to brands and models, I think its subjective.
@@mariosangermano5709 understood brother
I just bought that M&P! Can’t wait to shoot it.
He said in his recent video that he still carry’s the Glock. Guess the M&P couldn’t win it over 😂
M&p looks way better imo.
I shot, owned, and carried Glocks for almost 10 years, until I tried out the S&W M&P 9 M2.0 series of pistols in 2019. Now, all my Glocks are history. I'm very pleased with my decision to migrate over to the M&P.
Good things! 👍
Doing the same now.
I love both of these guns. You literally can't make a bad choice. For me though the money is on M&P. They just feel so much better in my hand and I shoot them better. I started out with Glocks 25 years ago and own none now. Shield Plus for carry and 2.0 full size with 23 round magazine for the house.
I agree they are both great pistols and it’s like a pair of boots it comes down to personal preference and what fits you the best. What works best for you. I own both brands and both are solid choices.
2.0 all day
M&P for me. Glock has just never felt right in my hand. I have the Shield Plus, 3.6 compact and the new metal version on the way. To each there own, we have an excellent market to choose from.
The M&P is just ready to go right out of the box! It’s the M&P for me!
@@thegoodpeoplegunclub totally agree with you on the functionality and beauty of the m&p!
That is a winning trio you got there. Those are the exact models I’m looking at. Only have a 1.0…
Very fair and unbiased! Need more reviews like this
Amen
i love my Sheild Plus. I have 2. One is the 3 inch, and the other a 4 inch performance center with crimson red dot. Love the M&P so much i also the M&P 10mm for hiking in Bear country. Wonderful pistols!
I have just about all the m and p 2.0 series. Love all of them. But the metal is my absolute favorite
I was thinking about bolting a flood light on mine just like you did!
The new SW trigger/shoe locks it up for me - only took smith 20 years to loose the hinge- lousy thing - smith does not offer the new joint in a compact/optic packaged for a restricted state so I needed up swapping out the hinged stock trigger for the new Timney. Timney absolutely crushed it btw Excellent explanation of a pre-cocked striker -well done. Can’t go wrong with either pistol! Don’t sleep on the Beretta APX A1 they just released without seeming to say so (weird) the Centurion size with a 3.6” barrel If Beretta had done this vs the toblerone slide for the army submission they would be in this conversation today Too bad Up side they sell the A1 for 200 less than the G19 Great video!
Just watched your updated video and u still carry the Glock today
I have both and like both. I have the G19x optics ready and the m&p 2.0 optics read with the threaded barrel. I prefer the m&p because I shoot it better but they're both great guns.
great video
Very good …I plan to buy my first revolver but don’t know which one to pick.
Both are the best.
M&P good comparison
My first gun was a Glock 19, Gen 4. Had it for 7 years as a “do all” until I discovered the Walther PPQ while renting at the range.
About 2 years later I have a small collection of compact sized guns including a M&P 2.0 in 10 mm with the flat trigger and optic as an outdoor companion (hiking, camping, hunting).
I’m not a Glock fan at all and for that price point there are so many better options (VP9, PDP, CZP07, 509T - I own them all).
All just as reliable and much better out the box.
The only advantage Glock has is cheaper mags and more aftermarket support but Glock needs more aftermarket options to get them comparable to those others.
I just don’t get the Glock hype 🤷🏽♂️
Oddly enough some people just prefer the the grip angle. People who are trained on the platform more than likely. They are great handguns no doubt but I agree. I own a sig p320 and an m&p compact 2.0 9 and prefer them.
The glock has always been controversial. Even 20 years ago people used to hate glocks and they hated 9mm too. The Vp9 is great. I had the original and the optics ready with a lazy wolf trigger. The pdp/ppq is also solid.
It's so weird how subjective pistol stuff can be. I can shoot glocks okay, and the G34 is probably the flattest shooting pistol I've ever owned. But I just don't jive well with the ergos and trigger no matter what aftermarket stuff and frame cuts and stippling I do. Since the very first time I held an M&P in my hand, it just felt like it melded with me. They point really naturally for me and they just feel like they connect with my hands perfectly. The 2.0 triggers are a lot better but the 1.0 triggers were pretty decent after a break-in.
It's hard to go wrong with either though. Both are excellent pistols with an outstanding and well-deserved reputation.,
Yeah I love the Glock 34, it's a great shooter. I never had a 1.0 M&P, but the 2.0 is great. Never understood why they were never a little more popular than they've been.
@@glockknuckle69 Honestly the 2.0 is the way to go. Nearly every upgrade was necessary and took it from a great pistol to an excellent one. The trigger and stippling are miles ahead of what the 1.0 had
The only thing I miss about the 1.0 is the slide stop. I don't know if it was intentional or not, but if you slammed a mag in with a little authority it would automatically disengage. Reloads from slide lock were super fast and easy
I have the gen 3 glock 19 and m&p 2.0 compact with the newer flat face trigger and if it came down to choosing between the two it would easily be the M&P 2.0. Just hard to beat out of the box.
In all fairness Glock is the grandfather to them all. Pretty much every striker fired pistol made today was reversed engineered from a Glock. I own three, but I havent EDC any of them in years. I recently picked up a MP 10 mm and wooow is all I have to say. It just frustrates me that Glock hasn't made any moves to improve the design and weight. Casing point... I held a Shadow systems in one hand and an identical factory modded Glock in the other and there was a significant difference in weight. Then lets talk about the price. Glock originally was a $350-380 gun in early 2000, but now they're 600. My MP was on sale for $575 and came with a ton of stuff in the box and is perhaps the best crafted handgun (including my expensive FNs) that I own at a decent price.
I agree glock should be at about the 450 price point. I got my shadow systems and is a much better gun than a regular glock.
@@andershilmo1866 I went ahead and got the SI a few months ago and I think it was more of an impulse buy than anything. Every time I turn around there’s something else coming out. I have an addiction that just won’t quit.
@@daveh9551 I agree there is a lot of cool stuff out there. I try to buy guns that fit in the same holster or use the same mags. Terr 1 recently came out with there mx series holsters for guns with TLR1 or several other lights but I can use for a couple different guns as long as it has one of those lights. I ended up trading another gun for the Shadow systems. I may get rid of my shadow systems for a arex delta or a pdp. I am kinda at my limit when I go shooting I don’t even take all my guns. I mean how many ARs do I need lol. There’s a couple guns more I like but I kinda get tired to. We just got to remember that the gun industry is that an industry. They always want to sell to you. I met a guy that said he had 50 plus revolvers. I personally don’t have time or the desire to have so many of one gun. I would rather spend on ammo and training. I do believe in having a backup to your carry gun. Mine went down for a few days bad ammo. And I was glade to have another of the same gun again to use in stead of my regular carry gun. Stay strong brother. I always have a couple guns in mind probably going to get a 10 mm for when I am out back packing. But otherwise I will trade something I have for someone else.
Glock can charge what they do because they are still the best selling handgun with very high demand. If the other handgun makers had the same level demand, they would do the same thing. But they don’t.
Great comparison dude! I shoot the M&P better but love the Glock. Go figure.
I shoot the Glock better but like the m&p 😂
@@mackmane6529 😆 🤷🏻♂️
i bought a 2.0 compact back in 2018. think sights were off but didnt like the way it felt. last week i sold my M&P and bought a G19 mos. fun fact it was glock day, entered a raffle and won. so i picked the G45 because i loved how the 19x shot. just rocked and rolled in my hand. idk why i didnt like the smith but my brother didnt either. both of us can shred the center of a target with a glock though
The new m&p is definitely a better gun. Besides the trigger and optic cut it also has some internal changes. I wasn't really a fan of the hinge style triggers on the m&p, but this ones is much better. You can always adjust the sights or change them. Sometimes factory sights can be off are you need to hold more of an aggressive sight picture. I hear ya on the glock though and congrats on winning a g45, definitely a good shooter.
I think I need both 😂
Great video…what are your thoughts now on these two? If you had to choose one which one you going with?
I've always stuck with Glock over the years, but the M&P is a close second. I would trust my life to either though, but still carry the Glock.
Should I buy another M&p optic ready for 2nd pistol …(currently have the original 2.0 not optics ready )
Or a Glock MOS ? Just to have 2 9mm options
The one that goes bang EVERY time either one ill take just in 45
I owned a s&w sw9ve time to upgrade to the 2.0
I love both! There is no denying Glocks legendary resume, but the M&P is on par with the Glock in terms of reliability. Where it exceeds Glock is pure quality of build and overall ergonomics and aesthetics. It just looks and feels better, and it’s a more robust gun.
Both are solid choices, but I still carry the glock!
Quality of build 🤣. You are delusional if u think any polymer handgun is better built than a Glock 🤣
@@9770G You don’t know what you don’t know. I guess ignorance is bliss for you.
@ Greg: I guess you don’t own both brands but I do! The build is not better on the Glock. Merica baby!!
@@9770G
Sounds like you only have experience with Glock because you couldn't be more wrong. I have several different striker fired pistols, Sig M18, Gen 3 Glock 19, M&P 2.0 Compact, Walther PPQ M2, and HK VP9 OR. HK, Sig, and Walther build quality is vastly superior than Glock. Comparing the HK with the Glock, it's like comparing a BMW M3 to a Honda Civic. Everything about the VP9 just exudes quality. There's a reason why the VP9 is $900 while the Glock is $500. As far as the Walther PPQ M2, barrel quality, accuracy, and trigger puts the Glock to shame. I can also make the argument that the build quality of the M&P 2.0 is also superior over the Glock. The frame on the M&P 2.0 is much more rigid and robust with steel inserts, has steel sights and guide rod, and the newer flat face trigger is vastly superior than the Glock.😂
M&P hands down.
For SHTF I’m taking my Glock 19 for EDC I take my m&p 2.0 3.6
I would choose m&p most likely
It's a solid choice man.
Better trigger, better sights, isn't subjective at all m&ps are just better
I love the ergos and looks of the Smith and have Smith, Glock and Shadow Systems. The Smith feels great but I shoot my Glock and Shadow Systems better.
The m&p feels good in the hand and does also shoot well too, along with other striker fired guns, but Glock is definitely here to stay.
I’m torn between a m&p 2.0 and a shadow systems xr920 foundation. My edc is a p365xl. Any thoughts on those two in comparison?
I own both as well. I love the ergos on the M&P 2.0 Compact but I shoot better with the Glock 19 Gen 5 MOS.
The Glock 19 is definitely the standard when it comes to compact striker fired pistols. Both are solid choices and I'd be happy with either one.
2.0
It was an easy choice for me, one has a square grip and the other has an oval grip, guess which one I chose?
What red dot do you have on the mp 2.0?
It's just a type 2 adjustable rmr. The rm06 is the model. Great red dot.
that is a serious glock knuckle. you probably feel nothing there anymore lol I think I might like the m&p but it may depend on how deep of a grip I can get. But why did you choose the biggest backstrap? Is the Glock grip too small for you?
I added the bigger back strap to open up my grip a little more so there was a bigger gap to get my support hand in there and make better contact with it. The m&p is more slim than the Glock so it did help. I feel a can draw it quicker and run the gun faster when I have more grip to vice down on. The only complaint I have with the m&p is I wish there was an undercut. The Glock grip isn't too small, I just got so use to shooting Glocks without backstraps that I never started using them on the Gen 4 or 5 Glocks. Haha yeah the Glock knuckle has taken a while to get and I don't think it'll ever go away.
I found the M&P grip to be alright. But I do have big hands. After a few years with the M&P 2.0, I saw the extended undercuts on polymer 80 kits as well as Sig P365's and I decided to experiment. Looked up polishing tutorials and made my own extended undercut. I can get a higher grip on the pistol now and my finger is more comfortable. Though to be honest, it really wasn't bad when left stock in the first place. But it does also feel like I have a more locked in grip.
@@leroyatleroys honestly i havent experimented with removing material yet cuz I dont know how to add material if needed. If I was able to experiment several times with the same frame, I'd have a go at it
@@ekzoskelitN Fortunately, there are tons of vids about how to remove or add. But it isn't so scary once you try it. As long as you maintain patience, the job is easy. Though I did use a dremel to shape it more quickly, then fine sanded into shape with wet/dry manually. But that is kind of a no-no since it is very easy to cause unintentionally deep gouges in the polymer with a Dremel. Still, after the polishing process, I am satisfied with the results. It's funny. The more I made room for my finger, the deeper and wider I wanted to make it. It's great for me now. But I did redo the process several times.
@@ekzoskelitN But the M&P feels pretty good to begin with. It's isn't a crucial modification.
From my experience with both, the M&P feels like it moves less in my hand and it shoots flatter. I am a better shooter with it. The Glock is still good, and it's ultra reliable, just doesn't shoot as nice.
I own both. I will never buy a glock again. There are just too many better options out there for the price.
Is this the m&p compact?
Yes it is the compact model.
After watching this video, I decided to go with the Sig P365 XMacro.
Nice, I wouldn't mind having one of those. How's it shoot?
@@glockknuckle69I haven’t gone to the range yet. It’s actually a new gun I just purchased. Once I have the time to head out to the range I will let you know. But after seeing a whole lot of reviews I heard nothing but good things about it.
Looks like M&P wins. My go to firearm
I have the M&P, but I do like shooting my homies Glock
Just say you hate the Glock and get it over with 🤷♂️
All the M&P guys came to this video to circle jerk around hating Glock. 😂 all good. Glock still out selling and out performing the M&P and everything else that is compared to Glock.
Smith all the way….
Not everyone is a professional that Carries OWB at 3 o’clock with a retention holster. Most non-professionals carry IWB, and most carry on an empty chamber because the gun cannot be tactilely verified to be safe. Try and ‘look’ a gun into an IWB at 5 o’clock.
I don’t know why so many people push glocks. Not sure everyone is a professional.
Don't know anyone who carries on an empty chamber, and don't know why anyone would. Kind of like saying I will put my seatbelt on before I crash. The gun is safe as long as your finger is off the trigger. No safeties on any of my handguns. If it had one it would never get used. Just one more thing that could go wrong under stress.
Most people who carry with an empty chamber do so because they're not comfortable and lack confidence in both themselves and their gun. The m&p and glock are completely safe to carry with a round in the chamber. The Glock has three safeties total. As long as you carry with a hard kydex holster that covers the trigger and handle it confidently, you'll be fine.
I carried with an empty chamber for the first 3-4 days way back when I first got my permit. Realized how dumb that was to do and forced myself to carry with a round chambered. Huh? It never discharged itself and I never shot myself. Now I think I would rather leave it at home than carry with an empty chamber. lol Respect firearms, do not fear them.
What trigger is that
