    FDE shield 9mm without safety

    It's easy to remove the safety if you don't want it. Here is a link to how to do it. The switch will still be there so you won't have an an open hole and the safety will not work. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DRsxcPfZ8mE

    Slide won't stay open after last shot

    I think she did. I received the new followers today. They are grey and do not look like the new design in the picture Rastoff posted. They look almost identical to the originals. Hmmm.

    M&P 9C mags

    I tried the X-Grip with 17 round magazine but didn't like it because it was too big to carry. Also the 17 round mag would not always drop free when I pressed the mag release button because my palm was up against it and held it in place. So for me the Mec-Gar +2 extension for a 14 round...

    Shield 9mm Magazine Failure

    I have been having a similar problem with my Shield magazines. In my case I am shooting Federal HST 124 gr hollow points and the nose of the bullets catches of the front of the magazine and will not load. I have filed down the front of the magazine but still having the problem.

    8 round shield mags $9.99

    Their web site now lists them as "out of stock" They don't say if they are OEM magazines either.

    Original M&P vs. 2.0 safety lever?

    Send a message to S&W Customer Service. They are very helpful. It may take a couple of days to get a reply but it would be the right answer.

    Slide won't stay open after last shot

    Considering the first reply I received from S&W about my slide not locking back on the last round being fired and the quick change of position with the second reply it makes me wonder if the problem is really with the slide lock tab not being large enough rather that the rounded corner on the...

    Slide won't stay open after last shot

    I received a new reply this afternoon as follows: "Dear Customer, 2217298 is your order number for the requested parts. Allow 7-10 business days before you see it. Regards, Rachel." I like this reply much better. Yeah for S&W.

    compact question

    I prefer to shoot my 9c but it is too heavy and bulky for me to carry at only 5' 3" and 135 pounds. I bought the 9c to be my carry gun after shooting 100 rounds through one and thought it would be just great. After carrying it only a couple of times I realized I didn't like to carry it. Then...

    Ammo Question - Polymer coated lead?

    There should be no difference. Just shoot and practice with the same weight what you carry for self defense. That is good pricing.

    compact question

    Here are three pictures of my 9c with the Mec-Gar +2 (MAG-380-075) extension modified to fit the 9c and one with my 9c on top of my Shield with 8 round magazine. One of just the gun with extension and one with my hand on it to show how it fits me. With the +2 extension it is the same length as...

    14 round M&P Compact magazine

    I don't feel the need to spend another $600 or so for another gun. With the +2 mag extension I now have 14 +1 and I am good with that. At only 5' 3" it's hard to hide anything. I don't believe there is any risk with just adding the Mec-Gar extension. Using the Pro-Mag that I modified will...

    14 round M&P Compact magazine

    I didn't really add the extension because I thought I needed more rounds. I added it because the pinky extension on a 12 round magazine is the same size as the 14 round magazine with the Mec-Gar extension and I doesn't print any worse. So why not carry the two extra rounds in the same size gun?

    Whats the latest full size M/P 9 mags

    So now I know why my magazine would not lock open sometimes after the last round was fired. Anyone know if S&W is sending out free replacements?

    14 round M&P Compact magazine

    Another one is all done. Note that I had to file down the top of the extension before the magazine would seat with the extension on it. The S&W magazine base plate retainer is not used with the Mec-Gar extension. Replace the M&P base plate retainer with the one provided with the Mec-Gar...
