This is not accurate. We've seen these failures in XDs, Glocks, M&P .45s and other guns. It is not isolated to the Shield. There have just been a few recent cases that have been reported on the Shield .40S&W. There have been several cases of Shield 9mm guns bulging cases. Those are just a tiny bit from being an exploded gun.

Also, there are many unaccounted for variables. Things like bullet set back, proper chamber dimensions and reloads.

No, I'm not ready to say it's solely the Shield.
