    Price of used Generstion 1.0 Shield

    Sold mine at a Tampa Gun Show to a dealer for $250. Night sights and 4 mags, 2 8 and 2 7 rounders. Original box and all accessories. Wanted more but was OK with the deal> I bought it new and just did not like shooting it. Probably had 200 rounds or less thru it. This was first of this year so...

    Ideas m&p shield 9mm ver 1 + extras value

    As was said probably need something new. Already have mostly Sig's, a 365. 938 and a 238. Also a Taurus 605 (357/38) revolver and a Ruger GP 100 n 357 and a collection of Heritage 22/22mag revolvers. I'm getting up there is years (79) and the Shield was just too hard to rack for me and I never...

    Ideas m&p shield 9mm ver 1 + extras value

    OK, against my better judgment I sold my Shield today at the Tampa Gun show today. Wanted a little more but really wanted to sent the Shield to a better home. Got offers from $100 (Oh, it's only a first edition) to $150 pawn shop and gun stores. Took $250 from a dealer at the show and it's gone...

    Ideas m&p shield 9mm ver 1 + extras value

    Think time has come to sell my M & P Shield 9mm, first version. Has the Talon soft rubber grip installed and TruGlo titanium sights. 2-7 and 2-8 round mags, original box and paperwork and lock as bought. Less than 300 rounds thru it. Any ideas of a fair asking price. I bought it 3 months before...

    General value question Shield Original version

    I have a Shield 9mm first version. Have added Trijion sights and have 2 of each mag. Probably 200 rounds fired through it. Decided to go another direction and probably will try to sell it. Just wondering on current value. With everything going sky high what does anyone think the value of this...

    Modifying Shield with add on housing CAA MCK design

    I agree with most of the above comments but still was wondering if anyone had built one and if so their opinion of it. I currently have an AR 9mm with 32 rounds per mag so that wasn't the issue. Just wanted an overall opinion from anyone using one. I also have a Sig 365 but so far they don't...

    Modifying Shield with add on housing CAA MCK design

    Was at the Tampa Gun Show Saturday and see that the housing making the Glock pistol into a braced pistol with a Science Fi look is now avail for the Shield (CAA MCK design), (hope I described it to make sense). Anyone bought one and if so what is your opinion of it. About $250 for the base model...

    Shield 9mm ver 1 and Apex sear. Worth the trouble?

    Have a 9m Shield ver1. Like it but don't especially like my 6 lb trigger. Wondering after reading many posts if it is worth the time/effort to add the Apex sear to it. Do not want to invest the money for the whole kit so sear only other than some polishing etc. Will I see a substantial...

    Shield upgrades

    My 9mm V1 has just a few upgrades. The Talon grip, rubberized version, the Tru Glo sights and looking to add the Apex sear due to the trigger pull. Have gone other directions for a while so the M&P has been sitting until I get some time to finish it. Have a Sig 238 Nitron that I have added the...

    Shield to the Range

    Just a guess but might he have had his hand over the port as he tried to cock the weapon. I guess visually I can see that but don't know how he wouldn't notice his hand in the port. It's hard to explain what I'm trying to describe but with the gun in hand try placing your hand on the slide...

    Shield 9mm ver 1 accuracy question

    Ok, let me correct my statement, Maybe consistency would be a better word, keeping shots within a reasonable distance of each other rather on target, rather than point on for aim. All my pistols seem to group fairly well except the Shield, it scatters for lack of a better work more than the...

    Shield 9mm ver 1 accuracy question

    Guess I should have stated 9mm. Forgot they made many 40 and 45 also. Also had Triton sights installed some time ago and adjusted by the gunsmith. Have as I said over 400 rounds thru it. I didn't mean to imply that I was comparing it to the Para, just that I had the Para Elite Carry 3" 45...

    Shield 9mm ver 1 accuracy question

    Haven't shot the Shield 9mm Ver1 for a while but took out today. Not thrilled with accuracy. Mostly to the right and a little high over all. Have over 400 rounds through it but it has sat for a bit. Put the Talon grip on it a few weeks ago and it defiantly helps with control of the pistol, just...

    Changes Shield 9mm ver 1

    Just added the Talon grip to my Shield. Like the new grip texture and it only took a few minutes to install. Per directions have heated with a hair dryer 2 or 3 times so it should be finished. Looks factory original and it is the rubber type grip but is still better than the original. Feels good...
