I think if you were to run a poll here, you would find a pretty even spilt between the S&W and Glock! I have a lot of experience with most, and can say it comes down to the fit and feel between the two. I am a bit biased to the S&W .40s, they fit me better, and are a bit easier on concealed carry, not quite so harsh, and they come with better sights right from the get go! I' Not really a fan of the .40, but if fills a nich between high capasity 9 MM, with the increased power of .40 and while not a .45, it's a reasonable trade off! I also find the ergos better and my wife is more inclined to carry it vs her Shield, it's self a sweet pistol. Ask around here for a show of hands how many carry a shield to give an idea how good they are! The .40 is just that much better is a very similar platform, enough that you can transition between them with zero issues. As good as the modern 9 MM ammo has become, the .40 is really a better size and power! Good luck, let us know which way you decide to go!
