I dont know where all these 550 and 600 dollars for a S&W Shield are coming from. Either you all got ripped off by your lgs or just trying to rip off your fellow Armslist buddies or what. My LGS near Wabash and Kokomo have been having them for 449 new. Wow just can believe all these crazy, acting like Obama people are trying to do to eachother. I guess the love of money brings power and power brings corruption. WOOOOOOOOWWW!!!!!
