Price gouging
Yeah that's the price the first guy I talked to told me, then when he had to check with the manager to see what shipping would be the manager got on the phone and said "599 plus transfer fee and 100 shipping, take it or leave it"

I called them as well, but they were "out" on Monday, so I didn't ask about the transfer.
Before that I also spoke to FGE in Ormond Beach, FL. The guy was nice and basically told me that normally they do ship, but due to demand of this and the XDS, it's not fair to their local customers. I don't have a problem with that as they have a B&M.
Given the gouging and fairness issue, I will continue to call locally and check Buds instead of other LGS out of state. Gonna have to rely on my .380 for now.

Has anyone ever dealt with Clarke Arms in CT? I purchased a Shield 9 on Sept 20 2012 and still have not received it. They will not answer the phone and will not reply to email.

Clarke Arms Business Review in Cos Cob, CT - Connecticut BBB
I wouldn't buy from them personally.. Rated: F (5 Complaints)
The BBB file was opened 10/24/2012 so that info was not available.
I did receive my UTS-15 from them 6 weeks after the order and that was about the last time I have heard from them. Currently their website is down. I might have to call the bank and see if they can retrieve my money. I would rather have the shield though.
Looking for 9MM
Greetings folks,
Sold my .380, looking to replace it with a 9mm Shield. None available. Tried to get one through the LE program, even still. Nada except Gunbroker with a super premium. Like my M&P Compact, but really need the Shield size. If anyone has a find, please post. Tnx.

Thanks, vinegaroons.
Just ordered the 9mm for $429 + $25 ship + $15 FFL fee. D&L seem like a bunch of nice guys to deal business with. Very courteous.

$429? I must have misheard him, EVEN BETTER! ;] I paid $25 for my FFL. Oh yeah, good people for sure. Also they are getting a lot of these shields for some reason but the more the better. I'm kinda contemplating calling them back and ordering a 40 just to see how they feel..

Was just told $429 over the phone by a rep at D&L for the Shield 9, and he said he had 50 in stock!! I called my LGS about doing the transfer, and he is going to be getting 2 on Wednesday for $459, so I'll just buy local. They both come to about the same price when you calculate shipping and transfer fee.
Hopefully this will help someone out looking for a Shield.

Good store with good people..its only a few miles down the road from me.
I was told their lead time on Shields (9mm) was only 2-3 weeks so I went ahead and put my name on the list.
This was back on 1/29...so it's been a little more than 3 weeks..but I'm being patient
