Love mine! Better trigger, light, thin, shoots well. Has become my primary carry gun IWB. Be mindful to wipe it down each night if you tend to sweat a lot like me (always have since I was a skinny a**ed kid). Had one I sent back due to a spot of rust on the slide where moisture tends to collect on mine. S&W replaced the slide and I have not had a problem since but do wipe it down with a silicone cloth each night.
Now do they make finger extensions for the magazines? And what kind of sights does it have? Also does yours have any problems with any specific types of ammo?

It comes with one 7 round flush fit, and an 8 round extended. Extended has a grip length comprable to the G19. Basic 3 dot sights, I think regular M&P night sights fit but the rear ones hang over the slide just a tiny bit. The only ammo I had any trouble with was a box of old wolf, the lacquer coated stuff. Polymer stuff seemed to run just fine.
Why would anyone shoot wolf?
Does anyone have any opinions on the M&P Shield, specifically in 9mm? The M&P was my first choice for a CCW but I didn't like the trigger pull on it. I've read that this is fixed on the Shield and I'm trying to get some user feedback on it before I go pick one up........Assuming I still can.
Still not easy to find. I found mine here:SMITH AND WESSON MP40 SHIELD 40SW @ Sportsmans Outdoor Superstore:Can anybody tell me are the shields easier to find these days? I want to buy the 9mm to try. Hoping to find one at the greenfield show this weekend...
