Women generally have the advantage of the drape in their shirt around the belly area, in which case a belly band or corset holster can be advantageous. Just make sure you've got the gun in a kydex holder that covers the trigger. Try the Crossbreed Belly Band, it comes with the Kydex for your...

I've seen reviews where things were buggy in the first few mags. Did you add lubricant first or go straight from the box to the range? Sometimes that makes all the difference.

I say Nay Reason: No manual saftey available. IMO, this is especially important on a pocket gun. I suppose you could carry without one in the chamber, and that would be better then not carrying at all. AFAIK, the LCP series lacks a true drop saftey, but still is relatively "safe" For those...

The 4" Shield Plus would benefit enormously by having a front Rail that can accommodate lights such as the Streamlight TLR-7 Sub. I understand this would compromise existing holster compatibility but this is a necessary feature. No doubt the holster companies will adapt quickly. More usable...

I agree. The hinged trigger needs to go. They're adopting the flat trigger on the optics ready M&P handguns, but the entire M&P line would benefit from the new flat trigger. I suspect that if S&W did that, the sales for all M&P pistols would increase.

Well first, the location of that "lump" won't compromise concealability or comfort. The red dot removes the need to align a back sight with a front sight while also keeping eyes on the threat. Managing 3 focal planes under high stress in a defensive situation is a complicated ordeal. Most...

I've lurked the various S&W forums for a while, now I've joined. I'm a big fan of how S&W has evolved their various M&P handguns and a few are on my wishlist. My firearms purchases are sparse, slow, and deliberate.

I currently have a Shield 2.0 Performance Center and love it. My next firearm purchase will be a Shield Plus Performance Center. Reasons: - Increased grip thickness - Increased mag capacity - Balance the range time wear between them both - If one goes down and needs work, I'll still have the...

Springfield XDMs give me that problem really bad. Thankfully for me, the Shield does not. Just practice resting your strong hand thumb on your support hand, completely off of the gun. Otherwise, and I know it may be counter intuitive, but try a tighter squeeze with your strong hand and see...

My position is that I won't carry a firearm inside of my pants, in any spot, without a manual saftey. I feel that the various passive safties on modern striker fired guns is giving many people a false sense of security. All it takes for a disaster is one absent minded moment or bunched...
