I was quite surprised at how full the stands at Talladega were today. They let the blimp broadcast pictures that showed how full the grandstands were. For most races, they try very hard not to show the grandstands. With the new aero package and the new restrictor plates, there was way too...

The first concert I ever attended was the Dave Clark Five in 1965 in Passaic, NJ. My friend and I (we were both 11 at the time) had to save our money to come up with the $5.00 for a ticket. The theater was packed with screaming, teen-age girls. It was actually almost frightening. :eek: Back...

Before we got married (in 1978), I told my wife that if Cream ever reformed I was going to see them and money was no object. She agreed (probably thinking it would never happen). In 2005 when they did perform 4 shows at the Royal Albert Hall in London, a couple of bandmates and I flew to...

I worked all summer in 1969 to earn enough money to buy a drumset from the Sears catalog. I played in various bands through high school, college and for about 10 years after college. Most of the bands were heavy blues and rock (Cream, Hendrix, Hot Tuna, and many originals). Man, were we loud...

When I first got my Kahr PM9, it took a lot of practice to get used to it and shoot accurately. The gun is so small and light and has such a short barrel that it was a challenge. With that experience with the Kahr, I haven't had much trouble with the Shields. I had done a little shooting with...

martybee, Yes, I understood your question. I have a Shield M2.0 40 with the integrated factory laser (green) and I also have a Shield M2.0 9 with the integrated factory laser (red). I've actually had a holster issue because the factory laser is a bit wider than the CT and Lasermax add-on...

I used to own a Kahr PM9 with the CT laser. It looks like the laser for the Kahr uses the same design for activating the laser as for the Shield. Perhaps it is the size/shape of my hand and fingers, but I could never reliably activate the laser on the Kahr. To get the right part of my...

Update to my original message: I took a Dremel tool and did some grinding on the raised portion of the rubber membrane. The raised portion is now about half of its original size. It is a huge improvement. :D The Shield sits flush against the Kydex shell and against the rubber membrane. It...

Thanks for all of your warm welcomes. I think I'm going to like it here. :)

Just joined the forum today. It seemed like the right thing to do since I am now at the point where all of my guns except for one are M&P's: - Shield M2.0 in 9mm with factory laser - Shield M2.0 in 40S&W with factory laser - 9c - 40c - 9 - 15-22 pistol - 2 AR-15's (don't remember exactly which...

I own the Shield M2.0 40 with the factory green laser. At first I thought the activation switch was too easy to press. I was afraid it might get pressed just from drawing the gun from the holster. But, I haven't had that problem. The switch only requires a very light press and has never...

I recently acquired 2 Shield M2.0's: 9mm and 40. Both have the factory laser. I ordered an IWB and OWB holster for them from Alien Gear Holsters. The IWB fits the guns very nicely. But, I am having a problem with the OWB holster. The Alien Gear OWB holster has a rubber membrane backing...
