    Best Price for M&P 9mm?

    I have found them new in US Army PX for $310 today. Best price I have ever seen. Pretty impressed. Anybody seen better than that? Too bad I got one for Christmas. Could have saved $100!

    Am I crazy for buying a Shield?

    Took my grandson(13) with me the first time shooting my Shield 9. He hadn't fired anything but a .22 handgun and that only once. He was afraid to shoot at first. After the first round he ate it up. He was able to shoot that thing deadly accurately within the first magazine load. I think the...

    Winchester 150 Year Commerative Models

    My wife and I were watching The Rifleman tonight. His was an 1894 Winchester 44-40(googled it). Pretty cool. Modified to fire when lever operated. Tube fed magazine with 8-13 rounds depending on size of rounds. Quite the weapon.

    Shield vs Glock 43 weight Comparison Loaded

    Before getting my Shield my LEO daughter was pushing hard for me to get a Glock. I rented the Shield and Glock 43. Both shot well and were very comparable in performance but the Shield just felt better in my hand. I liked the extra round or 2 and the price better as well.

    My new Shield

    How do you do the gold "fill"? That is a nice touch.

    My new Shield

    I have a new Shield and loading the mags were tough! The springs are so tight and I barely got the last round in the 7 round mag. Got a loader and it is so much easier. I am sure over time this will get easier.

    Opinions on concealed carry holsters

    Alright, I can appreciate a lot of what everyone of you has said. Thank you. I do understand that it will be a bit of trial and error. What a about the Sneaky Pete? Anyone use one of those? I'm an old guy and carrying a fairly large box on my belt would not seem too weird.

    Opinions on concealed carry holsters

    I just got my Shield 9 for concealed carry. Never cc before. I need opinions on best options for carrying this gun concealed. I don't want to buy 1/2 dozen holsters before settling on one I like. Even considering Sneaky Pete. I like the concept.

    Just got the Shield 9 for Christmas(had I not, I would have got one in the next few weeks). I have already found some answers to questions I had about the gun from this forum. Thanks. Not huge into guns but have had them for most all of my life. See the utility in having them. The Shield was the...

    M&P pistol "Roll Call"

    Was getting ready to buy the Shield 9. Then on Christmas morning I unwrapped one! The family and gotten together to get it for me. Just got home with it today. Cleaned and oiled today but didn't get a chance to shoot it. Shot one at my daughters gun club on Black Friday. Loved it. My wife was...
