I have been shooting a Ruger SP101 .357 for over 20 years. It is a two finger gun. I have a Taurus 740 slim and for all practical purposes it is the same dimensions as the Shield. I got my Shield in 9mm because I already had something that size in .40 S&W. It is quite manageable to shoot. It is humorous that those who put down the .40 also recommend +P or +P+ in 9mm. If I wanted my 9mm to behave like a .40 then I would get a .40. The only negative for the .40 is the cost of ammo but I spend only $4 more per box than 9mm. My lgs has 9mm for $10.99 and .40 for $14.99.
