I really like them both. My p320s are in 9,40 and 45, each with GGtriggers, and enjoy all three, the hard point is th M&P 2.0C with a great trigger and for me, more accurate at 15 yards. I will not be replacing the trigger with an Apex. For me the trigger is good just the way it is.

What a dilemma. G19, PPQ, M&P, VP9, P10c, P320, APX...etc. They're all good, it's just a matter of splitting hairs now. I've had all of them at one time or another and if I had to choose just one I'd take a Gen 5 G19.

I could not decide on the two guns that are the subject of this thread, so I bought both new recently. P320 RX (with update) and 5.0" 2.0 M&P, which I put a Vortex Venom RDS on. I've shot them a lot side-by-side since, and it's a hard choice. Both are good guns that I enjoy shooting, and both are accurate.

But if I had to pick just one, it'd be the Sig. It has less slack in the trigger and the reset is just a little bit nicer. Overall, I shoot it a tad better. And this is coming from an M&P guy. We own 6 of them, and only this one Sig.

With a trigger or sear enhancement for the 2.0, it'd probably be dead even. And I may do that at some point. But the Sig does not need anything like that done to it, IMO. Very sweet trigger out of the box. The 2.0 trigger is way better than any of our stock 1.0 M&P's, and is not a BAD trigger. Just not quite as good.

I think the Romeo RDS has developed a small crack/chip in the glass. So I'm not too happy about that. Vortex and Romeo are both good RDS, I can't tell any difference.

The M&P line are fine pistols, but just don't call to me. I have not had my mitts on a 2.0 though.

I'd buy at that price if I had the disposable income right now. Timing is everything.

Have both and my choice is an m&p 2.0 with an apex dcaek kit. By far the best trigger and really shortens the reset. Only plus to the p320 is its easier for me to reach the controls like the slide release and mag release on that gun without having to shift my hand position.

To me, with all the quality pistols we have these days, asking which pistol is best, is nothing more than a personal preferance Ford vs Chevy type choice. One pistol is not truly head and shoulders above the other ones anymore, except in your mind. And there is nothing wrong with thinking that . If one pistol was so much better or overall superior for everyone, it would put all the other ones out of business. Well,no company has done it yet.

How good is the trigger on the MP 2.0?
Good enough that you aren't spending money on Apex parts?

I believe it's good enough. I think the stock 2.0 trigger is more than fine for a defensive handgun. But then I don't look at a M&P as some wannabe precision target pistol either. If you're wanting more out of almost any service class pistol, some amount of trigger work will likely be in the cards.

I'd love to say Sig, but the 2.0 gets my vote. Especially in compact form.

I have both and I am very happy. The M&P 2.0 is a far better pistol then the M&P 1.0. I got a P320 just because I like it!

The M&P 2.0, just what I prefer.

2.0 by a wide margin for me.

I have a P320C and the 5 inch 2.0. I like them both, I carry the P320C daily.

I’d opt for the M&P 2.0. It has better ergo’s and balance. Especially the compact.

Another vote for the M&P. I also have a 320, but it is a pretty chunky pistol compared to a Glock or M&P.

This thread has me reconsidering the 320 compact I have on lay a way right now. Wondering if the M&P 2.0 compact may have been the wiser move...

My vote is for the 320. I prefer it over the M&P. I never could warm up to it. Never could get a comfortable grip with them.

Tried the 2.0 compact as well, and same problems with grip.

The 2.0 is better than the original, but I am just not a huge fan of them.

I don't think the 320 is better than the M&P or vise versa, it's just my preference. I shoot the 320 better.

Have more than one of each P320 and M&P M2.0 in several sizes. P320 seemed great when it came out for Beta testing, but took a while and over $100 finally to get close to a decent trigger. Lots of issues with finding and needing to buy different grips so as to fit hand. Shot P320C in IDPA for a while. Then the well tested and evolved M2.0 arrived. In the box of M2.0 four backstraps so can fit everyone! As is, the M&P9 M2.0 is excellent, but a 15 minute lifting of the rear and exchaging sear with Apex two-dot sear brings a good trigger to an excellent trigger. Attended the SIG P320 school: oh my, what a bunch of small parts and small springs - military will not be happy when M17 m18 gets into field.

M&P9 M2.0 is available with 5", 4.25" (now being shot in IDPA) 4" and 3.6" - all with out-of-the-box fit. Williams Gun Sight fiber adjustable sights are desirable, but the factory sights are ok.

Just my personal opinion. I have owned both. Still own the M&P 2.0. I think it's just personal preference. I shot the M&P slightly better and I really liked that they basically come pre-stippled. But you aren't going to lose either way IMHO.

Someone agrees with me in that I always thought the 320 has too much muzzle rise.
