First off hello everyone been a long time lurker first time posting. I bought an m&p 9c about a month ago and fell in love so last night I traded my sig p250 for a full size m&p 357 sig. Just wanted to see if anyone else has the 357 flavor and how they like it. Glad to me a member there's a ton of good info here!

My first M&P was a .357. I liked it well enough...not that different from a .40 really. I swapped out the barrel for a Storm Lake in .40S&W and shoot that mostly these days. The .357 ammo was too expensive and generally hard to find...not much interest in it in Canada.

i have a M&P 40FS that i have a SL converter barrel for 9mm and just got a 357 factory barrel from Midway for about $62.
i tried the 357 out a couple of weeks ago. it definitely is a little snappier than the 40.

since ammo for it is expensive, i didn't go crazy with it. just wanted to see how different it was from the 40 and 9mm.

I have an M&P 357 and also a long side 357, which was a 40 Pro with a 357 Black Oxide barrel from Storm Lake. Love 'em, shoot IDPA style matches every week, several thousand rounds a year. Had a 357C, but traded it for a Shield, which conceals better in difficult environments. Apex Duty/Carry triggers in all of them. Wich someone made a 357 barrel for 40 Shield.

I don't think that is going to be very safe with the chamber not being fully supported in the 40 Shield.
