We also own both. Several Shields actually, the PPS M2 LE. The PPS is one of my wife's guns, but I've shot it a fair amount. I was really expecting the trigger to be better, given all the reviews I'd read about it being so great. But to me, the trigger feels no different than our 1.0 PC Shields. They are equally accurate in my hands. I really don't care much for the biggish dot sights, or the phosphorescent paint. But they work okay.
