    I took the Shield plunge today...WOW!

    My wife has decided on Gold Dot 124 gr. also but she has only shot that and Guard Dog 105 gr. I'm out of Hydrashok or I would have let her try that too. I do have some Critical defense but it is the Zombie model and we don't intend to shoot it. I'll be picking up more Gold Dot and some...

    What is your Shield round count?

    200+ of Federal 115Gr. FMJ, 125gr. Gold Dots, 105 Gr. Guard Dog. Shoot them all just fine, thank you. The wife prefers the Gold Dots so I am off to the LGS to get some more. I prefer she uses them to practice.

    suggest self defense ammo for 9mm Shield please

    I bought two boxes of this and I'm hoping to try it tomorrow along with some Gold Dot and Hydra Shok. I also plan on running a couple of hundred Federal Champion through the pistol just to be satisfied with it before the wife starts carrying it.

    Home Defense / Concealed Carry Advice Requested

    I agree that a 9mm is the thing to start with and the one that fits your hand best may be the best one for you. We own several 9's and really like our Shield and the wife will carry it. I happen to carry a Springfield Armory XDM in 9mm when I'm out in my truck but it is very hard to conceal...

    Magazine warning on slide removable?

    MichiganScott, My bad. I should have got the pistol out and looked. I thought it was painted on rather than embossed. :( Thanks for the reply

    Who else has dumped other platforms for the M&P

    Picked up a Shield 9mm for the wife last week. I will be her EDC replacing a Ruger LCR which she had trouble using due to the way she had to grip it. I really like the feel of the Shield and might get one for myself. I carry a XDM 9mm with me and a Ruger LCP when I can't carry the SA...

    wich 1911 ?

    I started with a plain Jane Springfield Armory GI and still have it. Easy to strip and shoots anything I put in it. I now also have 2 Dan Wessons, a Pointman .45, and a Guardian 9mm. and I wouldn't part with them but they are expensive. None of the 3 have ever gone back to the factory for...

    1st Trip to the range with the M&P Shield

    Don't have pictures but the wife's target was similar. I'm proud that she could just pick up a new Shieldand have every shot in COM.

    New from Arizona

    Hello from the Valley of the Sun in Arizona. My wife and I just bought a M&P Shield so I thought I'd check in here. I have also just started loading/reloading and thought I'd look around here to see who might be doing that also. I like what I see. jack
