M&P Shield

[Ksmirk]

Fella's I was shown an interesting little pistol today and ya know I may have just found a new carry pistol BUT I don't know a dang thing about it. Any of you CCW guys know much about them? I hear they have 9mm and 40SW which I would choose the 40SW just curious about the recoil since it's an itty bitty pistol. I read a couple of reviews and all seemed to be good BUT you know how much that's worth, just checking to see what the word on the street is? Later,

since it is brand new not a ton of news on it yet... looks like it is going to a big seller for them.. this is a pretty good review of the gun

Where did you put hands on this mythical beast? I was looking for one a bit back. I kept hearing rumors of them being on the shelves but I ain't seen one yet. I've heard nothing but good reviews, everyone seems to rave about how good the trigger is. They are just a single stack M&P so they ought to be golden.

I've seen 40 S&W Shields at 2A Shooting Center and Academy, but the one at Academy has since sold. I haven't found one in 9 yet.

I got to hold the one at Academy but didn't get to try the trigger. It pointed well. If it had been a 9 I would have bought it.

One of the guys at H&H had one he showed me his, the flat base mag I didn't care for at all just too small. The trigger was nice and it felt good to hold and pointed very well. If they would have had one I'm pretty sure I'd have brought it home as it's a hell of a mess smaller than my beloved G23.

I watched that video among a few more and I didn't hear anything bad about them but thought I'd see if the real world had anything to say about them. Later,
