I think at last count I am over 800rds in each of mine with zero issues. Very pleased with this upgrade.

Not sure what the deal is with the short slide model. Good looking firearms though. Some similarities to the Shield, it's got too high a price point to compete with the shield market though.

I bought one a couple months ago. Absolutely love it. I paid $400 for mine, thought I got off pretty good on that deal

I installed the Apex aluminum and wouldn't trade it for the world.

My suggestion is to practice both. The more you practice both sight pictures the more likely you will be to apply the correct method to the proper circumstance. At short distances, and for self defense purposes, you will likely find yourself using the target focus. At longer distances, in...

The little button on the shield isn't really designed as a slide release, you'll need to pull the slide back slightly and let it sling forward as opposed to using the button. It is true, as the gun wears in, the slide gets easier to manipulate. My wife prefers the shield over the Glock 43, she...

Well. This is a Smith forum, so expect mostly positive response, especially compared to other brands such as Taurus. I personally carry the shield daily and highly recommend it. It is also an extreme pleasure to shoot.

My momma said my hand would fall off. Your momma's much nicer.
