    First Shield 9mm failure to feed...

    I am very sure it was not in that condition before attempting to fire that round. I loaded the magazine right before firing the firearm and I was picking up each round one at a time form the plastic holder. Pretty sure I would have felt or seen that deformity in the loading process, also, the...

    First Shield 9mm failure to feed...

    I have just over 1000 rounds through my 9mm Shield and I was testing some new ammo that I have never used before - Allegiance Ammunition 9mm 90Gr. Power Strike. Check out the photos below...

    Performance center ported

    I'm selling my PC Ported Shield. Don't like it as much as the standard Shield. It's already sold to a friend, just checking in to share my disappointment with it. To light weight for my likes and the Apex trigger I put in to the standard Shield is much nicer than the PC trigger.

    Background check wait times...

    Last night in Richmond, VA my background check took 6 mins. BUT... the sales kid put my last name in incorrectly and called in to correct it. The next step was a 40 min wait after the spelling correction was made. I just sat there and worked the slide the entire time ;-)

    Performance center ported

    New Performance Center Ported Shield 9mm Just picked up my new purchase last night. Disassembled, cleaned and lubed. Ready for the range. I like the sights but wish they were night sights, super bright in the day light or artificial lighting indoors but dark as night in a low light or no light...
