MLK18, how many rounds have you put through your M+P shield?... Is it a 9 or a 40?....Any problems? I have a 9mm on order, if I live long enough to get it in today's madness!

Okay, it's the 3913 vs the M+P shield! Can modern technology beat the hand craftsmen? Throw your 2 cents in! :rolleyes:

Sorry to say that after 2 trips to the factory with the EAA frame the replacement EAB gun flew apart too. At the second range session @ around 250 rounds the take-down pin hit the ground as it did so many times before.... I said "we're done here" to myself. I bought a Ruger LCP a while back and...

Smith sent me a new gun. The original purchase was an EAA series, the takedown level flew out constantly. I just finished cleaning the gun and after close inspection all looks good, ready for carry.

THEY FIXED IT!!!!!!!! I just returned from the range after pounding over 300 rounds (handloads=Berry 100gr. over 2.7grs. of Bullseye) through my new BG 380 EAB 36XX in 1/2 hour. The takedown lever stayed put. The gun was hot and gritty, but ran without a failure of any kind. After good...

Well, I received my "new" BG380 today, EAB36XX. I broke it down to look for any obvious design changes on the takedown lever/crosspin, but the only thing I noted was that maybe the slot for the spring in the lever head was deeper than the original?.... I did note that an outer extruded ring has...

Your RIGHT! The laser is just a toy, but the BATTERIES ARE INCLUDED!

3Shot.......... Did you note a design or engineering change on the EABxxx gun to resolve the takedown lever problem? My replacement gun is on the way back from Smith, but finding out how they fixed it is making me antsy.....m/w

New BG on the way...... Just got the call from S+W that BG 380 EAA 38XX is going to be replaced with a new gun sent to my original dealer...... I purchased that gun from the Firingline in Westland MI. , good folks, no charges on the FFL transfer........... Stay Tuned. :o

My BG is too on the way back to the "Mother Land" for the 2nd issue of a flying takedown lever problem. I can tell that many of you folks are rightly pissed about the failures of a product from a company like Smith. Do yourself a favor and check your emotions, Smith will fix or replace your...

My BG shot through about 250 rounds AFTER it was return to me from Smith for a flipping takedown lever. The gun ran perfectly, and I was learning the trigger and the point of impact with a big smile on my face when on THE LAST BULLET of session the lever popped out AGAIN! Smith has a real...

I agree, this type of firearm is an extension of your fist, not a IPSC competition gun. Reliability, safety, and it's got to be quick. I don't mind the DA only or the weight of the trigger pull, the manual safety is plus too. An accident in your pocket would be an ugly mess!
