    velocity difference/ported Shield vs non ported

    Maybe it's your ammo. I've not had to use my Ported 45 PC Shield up close & personal (hopefully I never will) but in putting shots downrange of various brands, including my own loads, I've not had the same experience that you have. I have about 725 rds through it & I'm happy w my 'short barreled...

    M&P 22 COMPACT Barrel Leading Repair

    Don't worry, I'm sure someone will offer to "dispose" of it for you. I have a beretta u22 neos that doesn't have a problem with it & I'm certain there are others. You may well know someone that could use it.

    Shield 45 mags

    Jeff, I apologize, congratulations on the new pistol. Hopefully this will quickly & easily work itself out and the pistol will make you (even with the TS) a very happy man.

    Shield 45 mags

    No, I mean did you load the mags into the pistol & shoot to see if they operated properly & didn't cause an issue? I have an Uplula mag loader & recommend them but, as I'm sure you know, you should be able to load your mag without one. Having trouble getting that last round in is one thing, not...

    Very true, however, some tools are more fun than others. :D

    Dumb AND lucky?

    Sounds like nobody got hurt and bonus, you learned from your mistake. Move forward, you've already learned to be more careful in the future.

    M&P 45

    I have the full size & like it alot. Zero problems. Find a range where you can try it out, maybe shoot side by side w/full size. Personal preference but, you may find you like the way it handles better. I do but then I always was different.

    Shield 45 mags

    Have not heard that one. Did you run the mags to check function ? By the time frame should I assume you took the one with the thumb safety ? If you did, what do you think ?

    Thinking of switching...

    Miles2014, Definately personal preference, I shoot the 40 better & my wife the 9. I don't care for the 'snap' of the 9, she dislikes what she calls the 'heavy push' of the 40. Are you comfortable with the pistol, handling, shooting, cleaning etc. One extra caliber doesn't sound like a lot but it...

    Shield 45 in the house

    It isn't paranoia if they really are after you. Funny movie. However, I do understand the OPs sentiment though & feel the same way. You can try to understand, or not. There is no reason to be nasty tho. ;)

    Anyone shooting plated bullets in an M&P 9mm?

    No matter which one you choose, for the best accuracy in your particular weapon, the true & accurate diameter of your barrel must be known. You mentioned that yours is .357. As MMT stated, his supplier does multiple diameters. Not all do. That said, Berrys has served me well. I do not shoot lead...

    Light Trigger Pull Liability

    I agree w alot that was said above. But, I believe the more we refer to things like 'the importance of a modified trigger in any court case' the more important it becomes. A case of words becoming true rather than 'actual facts' being true. Do NDs happen? Of course they do. The 'responsible...
