Default BIG Problem with Shield 9mm

So here is the problem. I stopped at Cabelas to take a peek at the ported model. I really liked it. Well I got home and parked the truck and sitting on the seat was a NEW SHIELD 9mm. IT SNUCK IN!! I am wondering if the same thing might happen if I stop to look at a .40 or .45 Shield. I feel I have to give the 9mm a good home as it was clearly unhappy in the store.

We're weak!!! I did the same thing during the first rebate period....THIRTEEN times! I adopted 9's, 40's and 45's. Just can't seem to walk away from those new arrivals.

To provide a good home you need to feed it regularly...

You guys are clearly lacking will power. This is not necessarily a character defect, all it takes is a bit more resolve. For instance, I have a Shield 9 and a Shield .45. Did I get carried away and buy a Shield .40? I did not! Using ancient mind-control techniques from the far east, I generated enough self discipline to refrain from getting that third Shield. I bought an M&P 40c instead.

Now that's will power!

Conceivably, you could dual-wield, with dual New York reloads, in each caliber! And give one to the lil' lady.

You people have no will power at all. Pathetic. But I'm not going to tell you how many M1 Garands did that to me too.

The 9mm Shield is the gateway drug of Shields. In no time you will be getting the itch for a 45 Shield. Ask me how I know.

I would definitely look at the 45. Grips better, trigger's better, plus, you know, BIG HOLES.

I will make a prediction now. I will have a .40 Shield follow me home. I just know it and will try not to let it happen but it will!
