Just found this forum
Name is Bill. I'm originally from Montana, but live in Tennessee now. A couple of years back my home was broken into and all of my firearms were stolen along with anything else of value. The huge heart breaker was my great grand fathers 45-90. Anyway, I was single at the time but involved with the wonderful woman that is now my wife. She was a non-shooter and really didn't understand my need to have a home protection weapon. Fast forward 5 years to about 3 months ago. I said dang it I'm going to start replacing what was stolen. I decided to try to get her involved as well so I talked to some of the guys at the local range and asked them what would be a good starter pistol not a .22. They told me to look into the M&P .380 EZ Shield. So I went and tried one and liked it. I purchased one and drug the wife to the range to shoot it. She was nervous but with some patience, instruction, and kind words, she loved it. So much in fact that now she owns her own 380 EZ. What brought me here was the search for additional magazines. I'll be posting in the main area of this forum in a few minutes to see if anyone has a lead on where to find mags.
Bill

Welcome from the Colorado Front Range Bill! Sorry to hear about the loss of such a meaningful family treasure ... guessing it was a Winchester? Enjoy your time here on the forum where you’ll find lots of friendly and very knowledgeable folks. Tony

welcome
Welcome to the forum Bill.
Please post in the WTB section for the additional magazines.
I'm glad you were able to have the wife join you at the range.
