I have a Shield 40 and also have stock 9mm barrel and mags for conversion capbility. It has fired flawlessly in both calibers for many rounds.
I also understand the reluctance of some Shield owners to perform this swap because S&W does not endorse it as safe. Not to mention that stock parts are scarce these days.
NOTE - I just rec'd an email minutes ago from KKM stating the following "We are hoping to have conversion barrels for the shields sometime this coming year." So there is hope on the horizin for those wanting 40 to 9mm conversion capability without anxiety.
