They look pretty cool. Nice ergos...Haven't fired one though. I will be interested in a range report when you get it!

I went to their page and there are some good features. I have never owned a .40 cal so that will be all new to me.

I'm not a big fan of S&W autos, but the M&P doesn't look too bad. Maybe it will change my mind about them

Buddy of mine packs an M&P 9mm as his concealed carry gun. Pretty fucking big for a CCW by my tastes, but it's surprisingly light and packs a shitload of rounds. His clips hold 17 I think, and it has a fast action, so you can squeeze off several rounds very quickly. I've shot it a couple times, and (at least in the 9mm) I was surprised at the complete lack of recoil. I emptied the clip into a paper man at about fifteen yards and came back with a four inch group around the X, so I was pretty happy with the accuracy. As per the grips, I have smallish hands and it was quite comfortable. Everything is very "ergonomic".

Obviously this is all for the 9mm though. Can't speak for the .40, but I assume they're similar. From what I could tell in the local shop, the .40 isn't too much larger-framed or heavier, although the clip is a bit smaller.

As per the caliber, I love .40s. I have one made by Witness and another from Taurus. Both are satisfactory.
