I've had my .380 Shield EZ since they came out in February and I've put over 1,100 rounds thru her. Always accurate with No problems at all. My EZ is my first semi automatic. Since 1976 I've owned only various Smith stainless 2 and 4" .357 magnums. I loved my 357's but I really enjoy shooting and carrying my .380 Shield EZ daily. A lot less recoil than .357 and I can put more rounds on target in a faster time. Easy to field strip and clean too.
