How much did you pay for your M&P Shield?

I was just thinking yesterday that I was gonna call the LGS to see when they might be getting the leo/mil shields in. I was curious to see the cost since the other versions are pretty significant.

same here, then I realized it's too late to call now. hoepfully I remember tomorrow lol
 
Why wait on a "LEO" model?? All models will be the same. Get in or Go in.
 
I was quoted $415 out the door from an LGS here in town. The problem is actually getting one. He said the .40 cal version is in his system to order but none available yet....

Im getting the 9mm for my wife and waiting for an LEO.40 for myself.

Some gun shops split the guns for LEOs and citizens, some don't. The benefit for a gun for LEOs is that there is a very nice discount attached to them. For an normal M&P full size/Compact 9/40, a typical shop may sale it for $500, for LEOs, we can get them for $399.
 
With tax it came to $424 and some change. Can't wait to get it from lay away. Fair enough for me!
 
I did not say that. I just mentioned striker fire. I am used to DA/SA guns. I see striker fire guns and of having one in the chamber and cocked ready to go with minimal resistance, it concerns me. I have seen pictures of triggers that snagged on weak holsters and clothing and people shot in the leg. We have a off duty PD officer who shot himself in the rear years ago by accident. I had a Beretta 380 that went off on my while 1/2 cocked. ......

As someone who was almost carjacked years a go and took action as soon as I saw a guy with a gun getting out of the car......I retracted my slide to place one in the chamber as my Walther P88 did not have one in the chamber.

The Beretta .380 and the Walther P88 are both hammer fired guns.
I'm trying to figure out why you are telling us that striker fired guns are inherently dangerous. :confused:

Do you think revolvers are dangerous also?
 
367+tax on 19APR for me. ;)

I just sent in the nation's finest $50 rebate even thought I'm uncertain if any stipulations are in place for the shield - hoping it qualifies ;)

I had a Beretta 380 that went off on my while 1/2 cocked. I have considered carrying a striker fire with out one in the chamber and have been practicing what they call the Israely draw. Accidents happened and no one is inmune from them. As someone who was almost carjacked years a go and took action as soon as I saw a guy with a gun getting out of the car I know that you can panic and question what your course of action should be and will question yourself after the ordela is over. I retracted my slide to place one in the chamber as my Walther P88 did not have one in the chamber. You must be prepared and practice and be disciplined to know your next move. Some people complain about the safety getting on their way, well it will if you do not know your weapon. Even your clothing will get in your way if you do not practice drawing and lifting your shirt with your other hand.

I was a little confused myself. I've shot striker fired handguns from Glock, S&W, Kahr and Kimber. No opportunity to shoot a SA XD yet. Unless I'm totally off base, the only one of them that has the striker under extreme tension when a round is chambered is the Kimber. I'm assuming (a very dirty word) that's why Kimber included a manual safety on the Solo. I could be totally wrong. Wouldn't be the first time and certainly won't be the last.
 
$409.99, but I used the funds from a Gen 4 Glock 17 consignment sale. Kind of like getting it for free.
 
I paid 299.95 at my local gun shop. They sell the fs and compact for $387.99. If you pay more than $400 for the full size or compact you paid too much. pay more than $350 for the shield you paid too much
 
I got mine online $425 shipped, $25 FFL fee, total $450. I don't feel ripped off at all since these are near impossible to find locally in this area. Plus, if they had them in local shops, they'd probably sell for MSRP. With tax + NICS, it would've been more, anyway.

BS. Dealer cost is more considerably more than that, heck at $350 a dealer would only be making a couple bucks.

Please post the name of your dealer so we can call and verify.
 
Yes, I'd like to know that dealer....

LE price on an M&P is $399. We don't know LE pricing on a Shield yet.

Or are you paying $299 for the Shield, plus $40 for the case, $40 for the magazine, $40 for a service fee, and $20 markup so actual out-the-door price is $439?

I smell bull %$#&. Your LGS won't be in business very long by taking a loss on selling guns.
