I owned one for the past couple of years, so it is not a 2.0. Just picked up a spare/second one at a ridiculous price; also not a 2.0.
So the first question is: What are the actual differences between a first gen. .45 Shield and the 2.0 version ?
Next question is: Is anyone aware of a parts compatibility list/chart between the various caliber Shields, even including the regular series M&P ? Hard to believe there aren't some parts that are compatible across the lines.
Finally: Other than a few parts, is seems very difficult to find spares with S&W's new policy concerning parts. By the same token, there must be some quiet sources. Not looking for major components, but the standard user-installed parts or assemblies.
Thanks for your patience reading this, and hopefully sharing. If you need to keep some/all of your information between us, rather than on the open forum, please PM or email me.
