What's a new Shield .380 EZ costing & where??
Really like everything I'm reading about the Shield EZ. Sounds perfect for my wife.
One of my semi-local gun stores says he can order me one for $359 (plus 10% WA state tax).
Wondering what folks are paying at their LGS or on line?
I saw one at Hyatt for $399 and another online dealer was asking $374. For me to buy online here in WA state it will still cost me the 10% tax (we have no state income tax and everything runs off revenue from sales tax) plus $25 FFL plus shipping or $20 or so.
So unless there's one out there for around $300 looks like I'll be supporting my LGS, which is a good thing.

I brought mine at my LGS 2 weeks ago on sale for $339. I brought the No manual safety model and I love her.

$339 plus tax is also the best I've seen.

Hyatt's would raise the price if Larry was aware of anyone else asking a higher price.

I just paid $374.99 + tax at my LGS. I also traded in my Bodyguard 380 and received $175 for it on the trade. So, $200 + tax out the OTD.

$359 sounds like a good price, but if you can find it cheaper, support capitalism.

Thanks, ya'll helped a bunch.
Just ordered one for $359 a Brad's Guns in Lake Tapps, WA (a bit se of Seattle.) I'll pick it up next week.
Now, anyone interested in a nice Sig 230....don't really need three .380s (I'm keeping the Sig 250 for me.)

I've been carrying a 9mm shield for the last 3 years but after playing around with a .380 EZ at my local police supply store, I just had to order one. .380 compared to 9mm? Of course it's less powerful but it's ease of operation and shot placement that counts. A lot easier on my old hands too. $349 plus state tax and background fee... $384 total. Just hope I'm not rushing for one before S&W puts out a rebate program for them.

Picked one up at a local indoor range for my fiancée yesterday. Paid $364 plus tax.She bought a Bodyguard on Black Friday and hated it. I think she will be much happier with the EZ.

Yeah with the grip safety, that over sized thumb safety seems kinda pointless.
My M&P 22 Compact has the same safety and while I'm ok with having it on that gun, I'd prefer something like what the Shields have.

Check out the Underwood .380 After a Looong time of searching for the best round for 380 ACP it has arrived. The Underwood Xtreme Penetrator by Lehigh Defense is an amazing round. They also make this option in a +P if you feel froggy. This ammunition knocks every other 380 option out of the water. It's a no-brainer. If you want the best 380 ACP self-defense round, look no further.

LOL, my local LGS's "sale" price is $395. A whole $4 off MSRP! They also want $560 for the Sig P365 they had in stock.
