    The facility I do my PT at also offers membership to their gym (super cheap too), but when I look at most of the machines, all I see are torture devices...

I thought about i-dot sights, but didn't like them all that much when I tried a friends' M&P9c out that had them. They're great for lateral accuracy, but not vertical.

    I already ordered a new sear housing block to get rid of the internal lock and mag safety (got it that way so it wouldn't have the warning on the slide that says "warning this firearm may be fired with the magazine removed). The new SHB gets rid of the lock and magazine safety.
    Sounds like you're good to go

    I have the factory night sights on my M&P pro model, and they're nice and bright. Wish I had them on my compact too. I want to get the RAM next...

    The enfield is heavier, but a more accurate rifle. I had one bbl'd in 308 . The only bolt action ( Mil surplus era) that was as accurate was a 8mm FN Mauser. I know guys in NE that use the .303 enfields for taking deer, consistently. The down side of an enfield is the extractor, AND weight. A springfield 03 is so easy to work on parts / acc and weight wise, it would be my choice, after an 8mm mauser.

    BobbyZ's the enfield guy, get with him

    Yea, I want to shoot and dry-fire it with the factory parts first before changing anything. But after shooting my friend's M&P9c, I love it so much I could see myself getting a full size version in another caliber. Though I have a feeling my Fiancee will choose to shoot my M&P40c more than my Glock 23 due to the smaller grip.

    Have you bought a conversion barrel for yours? Still deciding if I want to buy the conversion barrel or the factory 9mm barrel.
