It breaks right at the first notch in the FP at the end where the hammer contacts the pin. That small piece at the end of the pin typically falls out after it is broken and you may not even notice it is broken. Mine fell out on the floor and I just happened to see this little shiny piece of...

I did get an email when they shipped. Dave

I have this sight adjustment tool and it worked fine on my LC9. I haven't tried it on my Shield. $59.00 at Gunsamerica.com An Affordable Pistol Sight Adjustment Tool Dave

Ordered mine on 5/3; shipped(1st class USPS form Arizona) on 5/8; received on 5/11. That's a few days slower than my previous order, but I have a feeling they are getting a lot of orders. Dave

I think both the 12012 and 12013 will be too big. They're both for double stacks. I have the 12012 on my SD9 and the 12013 on my SR9C. Hopefully Talon Grips will start making one to fit the Shield. Dave

Based on GeorgiaShooter's latest YouTube video, he no longer has his 380. He apparently had a 3rd firing pin problem with his 380, and then traded it back to the dealer and bought a SIG P238. Sig Sauer P238 Equinox DEC 2011 Review, Range Test, Field Strip - YouTube Dave

My Fobus Sigma/M&P Kydex holster fits my SD9 fine. Dave

Dry firing with snap caps did not prevent my firing pin (S/N EAHxxxx) from breaking after about 300 dry fires. It's been fine since S&W replaced the firing pin, with about 300 live fires since on the new firing pin. I dry fire very little now. Judging from the broad span of broken firing pins...

Yes, they automatically will ship it back to your house, but an adult signature may be required. Dave

Nope. If S&W sends you a prepaid label, just get a FedEx box, put the label on the box and take it to FedEx or call FedEx to come and pick it up. I believe you have to tell FedEx it is a firearm, but tell them you are shipping it to the manufacturer which is legal. You CAN NOT, put it in a FedEx...

Call customer service(1-800-331-0852 x2905) and tell them what the problem is that you're experiencing. They will ask for your gun S/N. If they agree that it's a problem, they will send you a prepaid FedEx label (get it by email) to send the gun back to S&W. It will be fixed and returned to you...

I sent mine back to S&W because the safety was almost impossible to operate and hadn't become any easier with some use. It came back improved, but still not really easy. But then you don't want it to accidentally engage either. If you think it's too difficult call CS. Dave

The fix is to remove the lever a number of times. Mine, too, was difficult at first, but is much easier now. It improved after probably 5-10 take downs. It's quite esay now with 15 or so take downs. Put a little oil on the pin and wipe off the excess each time. Dave

I use the Limbsaver Recoil absorbing grip (12012)on my SD9. It adds a little to the grip size, but does work well on recoil. I think it's the best of the available grips for recoil. Google Limbsaver and you'll find additional reviews on other forums. Limbsaver 2011 - Pro Handgun Grip Model...

So, since you have such a strong opinion about the 380, what problems did you have with your 380(you didn't say you actually owned a 380) and what has led you to this opinion? Patent disregard? Based on what? You say the word is out, but I hadn't heard it yet. I would point out that you don't...

Their site has a shipping calculator so you don't have to guess the cost.

Another 200 rounds of USA through the SD9 with no problems. Dave

So why did you get rid of your LCP?
