Striker-fired semi-autos
I've owned several different semi-auto pistols in 9mm, 40S&W and 45ACP. I don't care for double-action autos (just my preference) and I prefer the tried-and-true 1911-types for the 45ACP. I lean toward striker-fired autos for the 40S&W.
For the 40S&W caliber, there are 3 makers that have received my attention. I've fired the Glock Models 22, 23 and 27 but don't really like the ergonomics of any of them. They just don't feel right in my hand. Had a S&W Sigma for a while and concluded that it was a piece of junk. Accuracy was terrible and functioning was not reliable. However, the grip felt great in my hand. Now S&W has the M&P that looks identical but is much more pricey. Finally, Ruger is now advertising the SR40 (the SR9 in 9mm came out first). I have fired a couple of rounds through the SR9. It felt good in my hand but I'm more interested in SR40.
Anyone have thoughts or experiences with the various striker-fired 40S&W autos? Let's hear from you.
