    Shield Issue

    Why have a serrated exposed button to enable it to be used as a release if it's just a stop. My wife had a pk380 that only had an internal slide stop, you had to slingshot the slide after loading a fresh mag. still trying to determine which works better for me.... slide release or slingshot...

    Correct sight picture.

    I focus on the target while both of my sights are not perfectly in focus i can see them clearly to align them for accurate shots. I also shoot both eyes open though with my left eye squinted and slightly out of focus.... which keeps from seeing doubles. there is no right or wrong way. you have...

    Range Today With Shield 9mm Test Out Mag Guts

    The MagGuts do make things smoother and easier... to me they are more reliable than the factory mags. I witnessed someone's factory 8 rnd mag follower sticking as it came to the top causing feed issues with the last few rnds. He had to dissemble it, clean it, and use some dry graphite to get it...

    How do you carry your shield/EDC?

    Shield 9 NTS in a Raw Dog Tactical at 4 o'clock. 9+1 using MagGuts with 2 spare 9 rnd mags in a carrier in my left front pocket. May go back to OWB when cooler weather gets here when I can wear a light jacket.

    Opinions on Talon Grips

    I put the rubber ones on my shield and removed them the same day. they ruined that "fits like a glove" feel of my shield in my hands. I think it has plenty of texture for a secure grip as is. Although they made a huge improvement on my wife's pk380. So they do work great...just didn't like them...

    M&P9c VS Shield 9

    I edc a Shield 9 nts with MagGuts kit in the extended mag.... so I have 9+1, not too far off from the 9c. The 9c feels too chunky to me... the Shield just fits nicely and is just an excellent shooter. either one is a great choice.... whichever one feels right to you.

    New Shield Issue ?

    pull back on the slide then depress the slide lock. the pressure of the recoil spring holding the slide against the lock combined with the mag spring pressure pushing up on it makes it difficult to release.

    Shield - quick question on 7 rd magazine insertion

    Groo, I was going to say the same about hitting your hand... but couldn't think how to say it... thanks. I mainly use the extended mags for practice and carry but I always slide the mag in till it stops then give it a whack with my palm to seat it. if the slide is back it snaps in and the whack...

    Another Shield 40 issue - they have feelings

    My Shield 9 has separation anxiety when I'm not carrying or shooting it.... I may have to get a Shield .40 to keep it company. I understand the autopilot feeling.... with the XS Big Dot sights I just pull the gun up and that big white ball just seems to lock on target... up close and shooting...

    Shield ?

    The MagGuts are great. not only adding an extra rnd but seem to make loading smoother and easier.

    Pretty Happy with Big Dots on M&P Shield 9

    I installed mine myself. used a brass punch to remove the originals.... they were in pretty tight. just be careful, work slow and protect the slide with tape. wasn't too hard of a job. I'm sure a quality sight pusher would make it much easier.

    Pretty Happy with Big Dots on M&P Shield 9

    Installed Big Dots on my Shield a few weeks ago. I'm really loving them. Been shooting steel plates... makes it easy to get on target and get quick hits on the plates. Nice shooting there Dkin

    Counting down the hours now, till I'm a Shield owner

    I had thought my wife would love my Shield but doesn't care for mainly how it fits her hand and the heavy spring racking the slide. She bought a CCP as soon as we could find one and she loves it. I like shooting it too but I prefer my Shield much more as it fits me perfect.
