I’m gonna have to disagree with ya there. Any gun that has the words “GRIP ZONE” on the fuckin grip is gonna lose a ton of points for aesthetics lmao. Still think the Glock is uglier though… just can’t beat that hideous Glock “perfection”. M&P on the other hand, is a gorgeous looking handgun.
I have the xd mod 2 in both 3.3" and 4", I bought my wife a xde all in 9mm. All great pistols but the funny thing is I like the trigger better on hers, being DA/SA hammer fired it's much lighter than my striker fired guns. If not for the difference in capacity I'd carry the xde over my xd's.
I have a glock 19, m&p compact original, and a C.f. mod 2 sub compact. Of all of them the XD is my favorite. I have a little over 2000 rounds through it, and it has been flawless. It is now my carry gun.
Good video. I have shot the Springfield XD Mod2, and I think it has one of the most comfortable grips out of all the polymer handguns I've shot. Definitely the most among the 3 here. I own a Glock 19 gen4, and it is what it is. I carry it with the medium beavertail backstrap on it. I l really like the new M&P 2.0 grip too. More aggressive texture than the first generatiion M&P's. I like the grip angle of the M&P. I pick it up and it points naturally.
Great video!! When I saw this video it had me thinking twice about which one of these firearms would be my first. After trying them all out I noticed that the Smith&Wesson M&P was the right one for me. Thanks for posting videos like these!!
THANK-YOU, I enjoyed most of this video, The comparisons of each point of the pistols back to back instead of watching a whole comparison video of one pistol in its entirety before seeing the other pistols. This helps cut down on forwarding and rewinding if you didn't remember the exact measurements/ points. The only problem was the video out of focus at key moment when you need to see what you're talking about.
Q.C. Phil thanks for watching and thanks for your feedback! I had just switched over to a new camera around the time I filmed this. The auto-focus is alittle strange and took some getting use to. Current videos are better. Thanks again for watching!
All three are good handguns with no fatal flaws. I prefer the XD though, as the whole package works well for me. I also find that the SA 2.0 Service model fits my FN holsters. I sold my S&W 2.0. It was a nice Pistol, but not significantly better than my V1.The only Glocks I can tolerate are the baby Glocks. The others feel like I’m grabbing a square handrail (no hate here, just not for me).
@@gutadin5 I can only compare to Glock and XD mod 2, but I prefer the Springfield. It's a smooth trigger that breaks late, but out of the box it's better than Glock
Very through review. I'm very impressed with your above board, in depth presentation. I have the S&W M&P 9 mm 2.0 with the 5" barrel on order, which has a few more bells and whistles over the M&P9 4.25" pistol. When I am impressed with a professional review, I always subscribe. A very nice, firm speaking voice by the way.
One more comment. The S&W M&P9 2.0 5" can be had at Sportsmans Outdoor Super Store for $429.99. They topped Bud's Gun Shop's price which has the same gun listed for $499.
these are 3 very nice guns- I now have the XD mod 2 in 9mm and the 1st model m&p 40, I do plan to get the m&p 2.0 version and a Glock 19 soon as well-nice review
These comparison videos are great for people to learn about different models side by side. I actually have all three but slight differences, XD9 Mod2 with threaded barrel and suppressor sights, M&P 2.0 and G17 Gen3. XD is the most accurate. M&P is best looking and has best trigger pull. G17 is, well, a Glock. Shoots as well as the M&P but switching between pistols throws the Glock off target for quick draw/point and shoot. Wouldn't hesitate to depend on any of the three. If I had to choose only one it would be the M&P but luckily I don't.
Thanks for taking the time for the detailed comparison. Would have loved to hear your opinions on each. I own the Mod2 and love it, super comfortable, good capacity, etc. However thinking of getting a G19 because it should be a bit easier to conceal without going over the top with big clothing. I carry 99% of the time the XDS but if i can fit the G19 would prefer the higher capacity.
Safet Sabani One I’m just an American and I like put an American flag at the end. Plus the second amendment is an American way of life. And I’m Just so proud of my country. And yes I know the weapon is made in Croatia .🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
I'm a simple person. I never bought an ar15 because I have hunting rifles, a 10/22 and a mini 14? With that said, I now have two ar's along with my mini and love them all! I have many pistols, mostly 22. But as far as a combat pistol? I never found a need to have anything other than my xd 40 service? Change my mind! Good lick, that's a great f-ing gun!
well yes and no... The little lever on the trigger itself does prevent the trigger from being pulled through, like I mentioned in the video. The drop safety is a firing pin block that is conntected to the trigger arm and is moved out of the way when the trigger is pulled through. With the trigger in the forward position, the firing pin is disengaged via a firing pin block... With the trigger safety lever forward, the trigger cannot be pulled through and therefore disengage the firing pin safety. Thanks for watching!
I own two 4" Mod2 Service models with the .45ACP being my favorite. I sold a G21 that was about as ergonomic as a cinder block. The Mod2 has been flawless eating everything I feed it. Very good ergos. I don't care for SA as a company but for $429+four additional free mags was irresistible. The 4" Service Model .45 is far superior to the 21 in my opinion. I still have a Gen4 19 and 23 and a 43 I carry daily but my P10c is my favorite side-piece right now.
@@thonymoussa9624 Tanners sports center, 2301 York road, Jameson, pa. About 15 miles outside of philly. They just got 100 more. They are selling them for 289.00.
I own two XD mod 2 models the full 9mm 4.0 and 45 acp 3.3 subcompact. The grip on the both are comferable. I wouldn't carry anything but Springfield for my defensive purpose.
I shot all three and I ended up buying the XD Mod 2. Funny thing I wasn’t even gonna shoot one because I thought I wouldn’t like this gun and I was wrong. I was more accurate and the gun overall feels great.
xd is best of the three.i have sold my glocks and m&ps and replaced them all with xd's.i would rank the glock last.the xd and smith are much better made and any of the three are equally reliable.the xd is the most accurate and softest shooter of the three.xd is most comfortable in the hand,m&p is close second and glock is once again last.
I shot all 3 guns over the weekend and this is exactly what i think as well. Another big difference i noticed was loading the rounds in to the magazines. Glock was easiest right down to the last round. The XD was easy till about the last 3 rounds then it got a little harder. The S&W was hard from round 1. I shot the best with the XD, and worst with the glock.
jeff squires True. The front rails locking block is so much stronger than what Glock uses that the Mod2 can function just fine if it had no rear rails at all. The old Ruger P95 had ALL polymer rails and you couldn't wear one of them out. The new FN pistol also has rear poly rails.
If you are going to include the Glock 43 as a option for the glock, the shield and bodygard options for the S&W being part of the M&P line should have been included also.
New subscriber . Great video review . I own the M&P M2.0 and the Glock 19 gen 4 . Really like both of them . I have been thinking about buying the Springfield mod 2 service 4inch . I had it in my hands tonight at the gun store . Really like it other than the grip safety .
@@hurricane8634 I agree Anyone who complains about the grip safety on any polymer Springfield is full of shit IMO it produces no restriction in gripping any xd

These comparison videos are awesome! Please continue to make them and your subscriptions should go through the roof. Are you planning on doing a range test on these as with the AR's? Also ask your camera guy to kindly lock the focus next time ;)
Hey thanks for watching! I will definitely continue to make more comparisons. I would love to get them out for a test. Problem is, they are all new and once I shoot them, I'll have to sell them as used :-/ Yea, I actually don't have a camera man lol - just a tripod. The camera is set to auto focus as I don't have someone to manually set the focus for me as I change from close-ups to laying the firearms on the table. I wish the autofocus would correct quicker. I know what you mean, tho - the focus changes gets annoying in the vid. Thanks for the comments!
Completely understandable on having to sell the used firearms ... maybe coordinate with some existing owners to get some loaners and give them a box of ammo for the trouble haha. As for the camera try running a higher F stop (F16 or F22) and focus lock. This should give you plenty of depth so nothing is out of focus and no unintentional refocusing 👍

Hello. Thank you very much for your review. I want to start in IPSC and I am hesitating between the M&P standard version or the compact version. What would be the best size to enjoy this discipline in particular? Will there be much difference? Thank you very much
WholesaleTurbos I think it has to do with the ergonomic grip. I also shoot my XD MOD II 45 subcompact better than even my 9mm guns, which includes my Glock 19.
The great grip is partly responsible but the Mod2 also weighs more than about any other gun in its respective segment. Weight makes guns more shootable but less enjoyable to tote for long periods of time.
The higher bore axis equates to more weight and less recoil. As stated by someone else it can get heavy after carrying for a long time. It's definitely important to get the proper belt and holster to help make carrying the XD all day. I personally carry the XD mod 2 subcompact in 9mm over my shield. Looking to get the XDM compact in the near future.
Good video only thing is the info on the M&P isn't completely accurate. He calls many of the M&P parts steel and they are stainless steel which is a huge difference.
Personally, it would be the Glock 19 for me. That is just because I have the most experience with the Glock. Not saying it is the best option by any means. Get to a range and try them out. The best one for you will become obvious after shooting. They are all great firearms. Thanks for watching!
Everyone forgets/ignores the XD MUZZLE PROTECTOR, which keeps the slide in battery when pressed against the back of a suspect. Please don't skip this feature anymore. ALSO the Glock polygon rifling should not be used with cast-lead bullets many hand loaders love.
Best feeling absolutely no question. Best built?? im not the biggest glock fan but saying anything is better built then the number one handgun in the world bold :)
@@fishman80 I'd say the xd mod 2 has much better feel and points more naturally for me. Quality seems on par with Glock but I wouldn't claim it's better. I'd love to see an xdm vs Glock torture test though. It's not really fair to compare the mod 2 when it's a good bit cheaper but I think it would do ok.
I like the xd9 subcompact I actually only like Springfield sub compact compact and ar15 saint victor and edge I just don’t see any need for a hand guard safety on a large gun
Two biggest negatives are in the claim the M&P 2.0 pistol is ambidextrous. For sure it is not. The magazine release is either left or right. Not both. And it has to be stripped down to switch. But the bigger issue is the slide release. There is one there for the left thumb but it is unusable. Takes a hammer to work it. Sad for such a good gun otherwise.
Brandon M no need for metal rear rail. Notice how much more beefier the front rail is compared to the others. Gloks basically just got thin metal tabs for rails
XD Mod2 service…accurate, reliable, high capacity, easy to shoot, simple to maintain, extra safe to carry without being fussy. Keep trying to beat this handgun for all-around utility and value and can’t do it.
This video editing is so confusing when comparing three guns, the camera is fixed on one gun while he is talking about another gun, then he talks about the third gun, but the camera is fixed on the first one.
I don't think the Glock 19 is offered in,10mm, you did not state a winner,I own all 3 of these great guns,for all around use,the Smith, going to a gun fight,? Glock 19.
I think it is like Glock 45.... Big frame , a bit small slide !!!!! I think it is good for conceal and duty too.... Xd or vp9 or glock 17 ( and 45 ) ? I think glock 19 is smaller than xd.... So why do you compare these guns and not glock 17
The Mod 2, 4 inch service model is the best looking of the bunch IMHO. S&W #2, G19 #3. Just purchased the Springfield. :)
I think so too. Aesthetically, they are great looking guns. Reliable and fun to shoot.
I’m gonna have to disagree with ya there.
Any gun that has the words “GRIP ZONE” on the fuckin grip is gonna lose a ton of points for aesthetics lmao.
Still think the Glock is uglier though… just can’t beat that hideous Glock “perfection”.
M&P on the other hand, is a gorgeous looking handgun.

muzzle protector doesn't exist on xd.i have several
I have the xd9/subcompact mod2 grip zone it my favorite I carry it over my M&p 9 and fn503
I’ll take the M&P here
thank you for the information
xd mod 2 hands down. best built too.
It's hard to beat a m&p performance center though
Best feeling absolutely no question. Best built?? im not the biggest glock fan but saying anything is better built then the number one handgun in the world bold :)
@@fishman80 I'd say the xd mod 2 has much better feel and points more naturally for me. Quality seems on par with Glock but I wouldn't claim it's better. I'd love to see an xdm vs Glock torture test though. It's not really fair to compare the mod 2 when it's a good bit cheaper but I think it would do ok.
@@boomerisadog3899 XD would lose as soon as it got crud in the grip safety
@@ericjohnson9193 I've never seen one fail at that point, even after being buried in fine sand.
I like the xd9 subcompact I actually only like Springfield sub compact compact and ar15 saint victor and edge I just don’t see any need for a hand guard safety on a large gun
what’s the material of the trigger on the M&P?
Prices !!!
Why did they have to put "Grip Zone" on the grip of the Mod2 XD? It's ridiculous and makes the gun look ridiculous, like a toy.
They stopped after everyone complained.
Two biggest negatives are in the claim the M&P 2.0 pistol is ambidextrous. For sure it is not. The magazine release is either left or right. Not both. And it has to be stripped down to switch. But the bigger issue is the slide release. There is one there for the left thumb but it is unusable. Takes a hammer to work it. Sad for such a good gun otherwise.
I do like the factory U dot sights on a Glock-i know many people do not
I do too easy to pick up sights and they serve the purpose very well. I own Glocks and m&p. I prefer the Glock don't need the extra crap
Can you compare the M&P 2.0 c against the sig P320c please
Gen 4 19 for me the other 2 a very close second
Should I get the Sig XL or the Springfield XDe????
XD would be my choice. I've heard mixed reviews of the Sig 365 XL.
Sig.
So is the rear rail on the XD metal now? I know the earlier ones were plastic
Brandon M no, they are still polymer
Brandon M no need for metal rear rail. Notice how much more beefier the front rail is compared to the others. Gloks basically just got thin metal tabs for rails
slurpyman20 yeah, it works fine haven’t had an issue with it
XD Mod2 service…accurate, reliable, high capacity, easy to shoot, simple to maintain, extra safe to carry without being fussy. Keep trying to beat this handgun for all-around utility and value and can’t do it.
Both my Glocks came with just two mags,a lock and one small ass brush
Which XD Mod 2 Is Better 40 S&W Or 9mm And Why🤔
9mm. Way less recoil and more controllable imho. I own it in 9mm and own a XDM 3.8 in 9mm. Love them both. Best firearms on the market imho.
9mm is better. I have XD Mod.2 Service Model in 9mm. I personally enjoy 9mm better than the .40.
Smith compact would have been more like the others
very good job...
Thanks, I appreciate it!
XD All dat long!!
I would not have a glock
No Glocks
Really? "Hi I'm reviewing this but I don't know how many rounds the mag holds."
It's been 4 years, have you learned? (like RTFM)
I think the glock 17 is closer to the m&p full size same capacity and similar in size
that "GRIP ZONE" indicator is super cheesy..
Yes it is! I'm glad they decided to remove that by the time I got mine
This video editing is so confusing when comparing three guns, the camera is fixed on one gun while he is talking about another gun, then he talks about the third gun, but the camera is fixed on the first one.
Hate the grip. That sharp grip will eat you up when carrying IWB
Camera positioning is not the greatest. Those extreme close ups, it was impossible to see what part of the handgun was being talked about.
I don't think the Glock 19 is offered in,10mm, you did not state a winner,I own all 3 of these great guns,for all around use,the Smith, going to a gun fight,? Glock 19.
The Honda Civic vs
Toyota Camry vs
Ford Fusion.
And there's the 1911 guy.
Which one is the Ford? LOL
@@bruhdamartinasty3636
Any of them. haha
I think it is like Glock 45.... Big frame , a bit small slide !!!!! I think it is good for conceal and duty too....
Xd or vp9 or glock 17 ( and 45 ) ?
I think glock 19 is smaller than xd.... So why do you compare these guns and not glock 17
XD mod 2 harika bir silah ama isim ve marla olarak diğer 2 silahın gölgesinde kalacaklar
