I have yet to see one, but I'm also not looking. The only advantage of the .30SC is an extra 2 rounds. Everything else is a disadvantage compared to the 9mm. I would consider one if they could fit it in a Glock 42 size gun(or smaller), but I don't think that will happen.

My guess? User error.

Why be interested in the Shield Plus if you don't like the polymer frame??? I'd skip the CT RDS, but the pistol is solid.

Might as well use a 13 rounder.

I just bought two. :(

I have one 3.1 Plus w/ Cerakote and one 3.1 Plus w/out Cerakote. The Cerakoted frame is the plain Jane model w/ white-dot sights. The non-Cerakoted is optic cut w/ orange-ring front tritium sights. You can tell by the mold injection spot behind the trigger. On the non-Cerakoted frame it's...

I'd like to see the pictures??????

The black streak on the mag follower is magic marker that is done at the factory for some reason. It will come off with some CLP or rubbing alcohol. Not sure why S&W does this, but they do. If you by new boxed mags they won't have this. One of my Plus's was heavily oiled and the other was dry as...

Get both is the obvious answer!

Uplula is the way. Push it down really hard. You'll hear a pop. My guess is the new spring is aligning itself in the mag when it makes this noise. I have a couple of stubborn 13 rounders, but are better now after using them a bit. I also have a couple that were easy from day one. I think some of...

Why would they change the dovetail? Have you confirmed this with S&W?

Likely won't be enough pressure around the feed lips to hold the rounds in. You could try it, but I don't see the reason for it. Certainly wouldn't use it for self defense.

Have you tried one? The whole front of the trigger is the dingus. You don't feel that protrusion in the center like you do on Glocks. As a Glock fan, the Shield Plus trigger is wonderful. It's much better then the original Shield hinged trigger, IMO. Other then my M&P .22 compact it's the only...

Change grip or don't worry about it not locking back. Can't see any other way barring removing the tab.
