Ok hopefully someone has both. I am having a bit of a conniption fit over which to purchase. A few assumptions to level the playing field:
-The ~$500 price difference is not a problem.
-I have both colors of both pistols available, so I could conceivably buy black or tan/coyote in either. I’m leaning on coyote/tan...but that’s another debate.
-Yes of course I understand they are different (striker vs DA/SA, poly vs steel, weight, etc) but they are essentially the same duty profile. I have no illusions I will be carrying either CCW.
Purpose of the pistol is essentially a range/training or tactical class pistol (OWB/thigh rig carry), bedside, and/or part of the zombie kit.
I have gobbled up a couple other MHS contenders, so the M17 has appeal in that context, but I can’t get my brain to let go of the Mk25...a simple classic (though no longer a service piece).
Ok I’ve presented my circular logic (hence the issue with a decision). There can only be one. GO!
