While I gave a nickel's worth earlier, I thought I should point out that I agree with this statement.
It also bears pointing out that 9mm ammunition is still substantially less expensive than .38 special and much less than .357 when I have looked in the last few months. Also, if concealed carry is something you are considering I will say that .38 +P and .357 is zero fun to shoot out of a snub nosed revolver. I find the single stack modern 9mm much easier to handle.
I've got a Jones for that M&P shield in 9mm. I shot one a year ago or so, and was really impressed with it. Great option if you intend to carry concealed.
