The M&P isn't unique with the interchangeable backstraps. Beretta's PX4 storm, Springfield Armory XDm, some Taurus models, Some FN models, and even the 4th gen Glocks. Out of all the guns I have handled with this feature I like the M&P's system the best, followed by Glocks, and then followed by Beretta's. For the record I do not own any of those at this time, and only owned the PX4 storm in the past. I absolutely hate Springfield's system (yet I own two XDm pistols).

Sorry to hear that you and the Kimber are not for each other, but glad you found out before spending the money.

yep, got the names switched, thanks for the catch.

there will be slightly more recoil with the pro than the ultra carry due to the 1" shorter barrel and slide and the half inch shorter grip. The reduced mass will affect it slightly, but to me not that much (fair warning: I am a recoil junkie, which means I have shot a 454 casull with blisters on my hand and didn't mind it much).
