I have both and competed in USPSA for years with the M&P that had zero mechanical failures. My brain fart reloads were the only issues in many, many thousands of rounds down that barrel.
The FN-509 is proving itself to me to be a very reliable firearm with the correct grip angle as the M&P.
Your a Glock shooter?
Thought so. Most who go with 1911 like the 509’s and M&P’s. Those using Glocks get used to that grip angle.Before most folks thought it was fashionable to do so. 1988 there bouts is when I purchased my first Glock 17

I have a Glock that’s a safe queen because it’s all wrong for my 1911 memory muscle.
Everyone has their desired platform. Practice and train with what one prefers.
M&P grip safety?The M&P's look nice, but I don't like the way the grip safety looks on them. I'm trying to stay with 9mm and maintain that caliber redundancy.
M&P’s can be bought without the thumb safety. None of mine have them. Strictly trigger safety.Actually I used a 1911 and a High Power before the Glock. The Glock is why I moved away from SA auto pistols cocked and locked . True Story ...
Must be thinking of the M&P EZ line.M&P grip safety?
Yeah I forget those exist. That's not the M&P I know nor is it what the OP is referring to so it never crossed my mind that might be what he was talking about.Must be thinking of the M&P EZ line.
