Not if you can comfortably carry it. Just my opinion. As cool as the Shield is, it still has less rounds than the 9c so if the compact is working well for you as a EDC I would stick with it.
Agreed. My 9c was too thick for my liking and I generally carried owb with a cover garment, that's why I sold it to buy the shield. To me, I shoot as well with the shield as the 9c, but for the extra rounds, if you are comfortable with the 9c, stick with it.
Btw, any suggestions for summer carry woes?
What he said...I sold my 9c for a shield because it was a bit thick for me.
