My new Shield has the same issue as it's a beast to rack as the recoil spring is on super tough and after disassembly it seems especially tough to get the slide to lock.

My PC shield was the same but it loosened up some over time after firing. The smaller sub compacts have some tough springs in them. I put my PC spring in my new shield and it is noticeably different.

If you remove the recoil spring assembly and put it together without it does slide smoothly and can you lock it? That would rule out a misaligned slide or lower. I am going to guess the new spring in your shield is a just strong as H@ll being new. Could be wrong.
