I just purchased a Shield 40. I'm looking for suggestions on a good holster for this handgun. Not interested in IWB. I have tried those & cannot seem to feel comfortable with them. From Illinois. Just finished my conceal carry training. Now waiting for the state to say I can carry. I'm also a...

Could someone please explain the dislike for handguns with locks on them. I have 4 handguns with locks & find them not a problem. I see every once in awhile complaints about locked guns. Is there a problem with them malfunctioning more than the others. This question has puzzled me for sometime...

Thanks again everyone for the reassuring comments. I felt a little more recoil shooting the P's, but nothing an experienced shooter would fine uncomfortable. The handgun handled the loads very well. Would not hesitate to shoot them again, but not on a regular basis.

Thanks Murphydog,Idp4570. Shot a box of 38 spl. ( 50 rds) & 25 38+P's Tuesday morning. The handgun was amazingly accurate. Took a couple of rounds to find point of aim. After that it was a fun morning. Bananaman, yes it has a round VPA sticker on it.Thanks for the info. I did some touch up...

Hello to everyone. Just found this forum yesterday. Purchased a model 39-2 a few months ago, and only fired it once. It was a joy to shoot for an older pistol. Have a lot of problems in Illinois finding places to shoot that do not charge an arm and a leg. Every one knows that this sorry state...
