    M&P9 Shield Barrel

    Bob, do you know of anyone who done this conversion from 9 to 40? I have a 9, and I was thinking of selling it to buy a 40, but I am having issues finding a 40 in my area.

    Ruptured Cartridge in new 9mm Shield

    I agree with having a gunsmith look it over. I have seen something similar with a Glock (not me). After quite a bit of investigation, it was determined that it was bad brass and it was a standard load. If it was a hot load, there would be more damage to thr gun, however, The gun suffered no...

    Will you buy a Shield at MSRP ???

    I voted yes... Although I did buy my 9mm for 409.99 from a local gun shop two weeks ago. I was in the right place at the right time. I don't plan to get the 40 shield, but I do plan on getting a 40, but in a full size.

    Best crossbreed holster for a Shield?

    I heard back from crossbreed this morning and they say that the mini-tuck is good for 32 to 34 inch waste lines and lower... I am a 33. They said that both will work great for the Shield. I am still torn on which one will be best for me.

    Should I have bought it?

    Pass. Another example is gunbroker.com where shields are selling for $650 to $800 and the MSRP is only $449.00. I found mine for 409.99 at a local gun store. Knowing that they are not gouging their customers makes me committed to buying more from them down the road.

    Best crossbreed holster for a Shield?

    Now that I have a great little gun I need an awesome holster for it. During the warm weather months I wear either a tucked in dress shirt or a tucked in polo shirt with dress pants. No coat. (Development consultant, requires a ton of out door field work). I will have this on 10 to 16 hours on...

    Smith and Wesson shield in stock

    I bought mine from Silverbullet Firearms in Grand Rapids. They received two shipments in less than a week and both were sold out before the closed that night. Most of the places around here are taking a first come first serve in person approach. I was lucky enough to be in the store when they...

    How much did you pay for your M&P Shield?

    $409.99lus tax from a local gun shop that received two shipments of them in less than a week. I was in the right place at the right time! It was about two weeks ago.

    Concealing with business casual without jacket

    Part of my job will require me to be outside during the summer, wearing dress pants and a dress shirt or polo shirt that needs to be tucked in. It is only an issue in the summer because I wear a suit coat the the rest of the year. What is the best way to conceal my new Shield 9mmm?

    Increased Production

    I guess I am thinking along the lines of strike while the iron is hot. Right people want them right now, but in 6 months to a year, people will have either bought something else to meet that need, or will buy the latest and greatest thing at that moment. I checked on another forum and they are...

    WORK SLOWDOWN ON S&W M&P 40 SHIELDS

    Wow... Some of you seem very lucky. I buddy of mine was on a waiting list for 6 months and finally found one by accident. Some guy who was on a list for a 9 but changed his mind and got the one unclaimed 40 instead. My buddy happened to be standing at the counter as this was happening. I would...
