Lots of opinions on that, for me personally I have no issue using it for personal defense ammo. Wouldn't want to use +P all the time for range ammo in any caliber. For instance, I generally prefer standard pressure in 9mm for defense ammo vs. +P and I tried both +P and +P+ at one time. I...

Precision one XTP is my current carry ammo. Winner of the ammo quest from shooting the bull on you tube for short barrel 380’s. I have also shot Speer gold dots with no issue. Speer seems to perform better in my 380ez than the BG2.0 shorter barrel in online testing. No feeding issues. I’m...

Bought a 4" Performance Center slide and put it on my Shield Plus, it was cut for an optic K footprint. Set it up tonight, hope to shoot it later this week.

There’s like a 100 threads on item’s #1, 3, 5 & 6. #1, 5 & 6 will loosen with use and break in nicely #2 baffles me, pulling the trigger to remove the slide is very common #3 there’s a technique to it, shouldn’t require force just spin it slightly. #4 should not be the case, the slide will...

Yes, and precision one XTP can be hand for $0.60/rd online, though I'd likely buy the +P flavor based on more recent testing with the BG2.0

Lots of great info in that post, I'd only comment on two points. It seems the GD and V Crowns don't perform as well as some XTP out of short barrels. At least from what I've found. Though GD performs well out of longer barrels. For me I've gong to XTP in the BG2.0 and use the GD in the...

Great stuff! Thanks for sharing! Just bought a 4" PC slide for my shield plus non-comp, it has the Apex USB had never heard of it before. Both my Sheild plus's have the Overwatch precision trigger installed which includes their own USB mod, so likely just never needed it. Can't wait to give...

Thankfully the choice is yours, carry what you think is best. I think there are several 380 JHP’s that work consistently well. Speed is king for them. Precision one tested well years ago, underwood’s xtp is good and the new federal VHP looks to do well though it’s a newer round. Will it...

I carry both when I can, prefer the 9mm over the 380 but will absolutely carry the BG2.0 in a pocket holster. Sometimes it's just easier to throw it in my pocket and go. I do love my Shield Plus.

So you ordered this from S&W directly off the website? I’ve been considering the longer slide. And was looking as well.

Pulling the trigger is fine, lubricate as you see fit the gun will tell you if it isn’t enough or too much I’d think.

Had no issues with the original RSA thought it was tough to put back in on occasion it worked fine. I went with the Galloway replacement and so far happy with it. I'd like to see the original and this new RSA side by side in a photo. Can't quite grasp the differences by the single photo only...

Found the shield grip better than the P365's, I wanted to like the 365 but unless I got a custom grip the stock P365 was not going to work for me.

Very nice! I'll likely get the slide coated when I get it cut for an optic. I like that color.

I don't see them on their website. I used them on my 10rd Shield Plus mags ('cause MA). I'd have bought it to at least try it out.
