ZX has a sale going on for the Shields... So I picked one up at lunchtime. I work right down the street. Looking forward to range testing it. Seems like a good fit for my needs.
Anything that I need to know or keep in mind about this newest addition?
I owned one, nice pistol, ditch the 8 round mag and buy or trade for another 7 round mag.
Check out this as for the reasons why: S&W M&P Shield 9mm Review - YouTube
I sold mine around the begining of the year, I felt like the slide made the pistol a little "top" heavy.
Although for a small pistol it does have some nice sights.
I agree with the 7 vs. 8 round mag talked about in the video. I think it's a great cc gun. Happy shooting, and I like mine. You may want to invest in some night sights.
Thank you! :-)
This one was shot with a softbox shot at a 45 degree angle downward, toward the camera and two white foam core reflectors to either side.
I'm thinking I want a OWB and an IWB holster next... I'm really picky about holsters. I like paddle holsters, Rocketman made me a great one for my M&P Compact a while back.
I had a Shield and sold it. It was very reliable, but I just could not get it to fit comfortably in my hand. It also, maybe it was me, shot to the left and
I could not fix it. I would highly recommend them, it just wasn't the gun for me.
