    Progressive Press Choices ?

    I like Dillon presses. I have tried a Square Deal and I believe that to be best for one caliber. I have a 550 and a 650XL. When I was shooting SASS matches along with my wife we averaged 5000-8000 rounds a year of .38 Special. We started with the 550B and that was kind of like a second career...

    2.0 M&P trigger.

    When I got my M&P 2.0 I thought the trigger was ok and not worth upgrading. Now that I have my Shield Plus I am not liking my 2.0 so much. Do you guys know if the new full size M&P trigger that is in the 10mm is available for the other M&Ps?

    Shield Plus mags to watch out for.

    Thanks for the replies. I am glad to hear that Smith & Wesson is interested in fixing the problem. I have been on the look out for some 13 rounders but there just isn't that many out there on the store shelves. I could buy online I suppose. Jay

    Shield Plus mags to watch out for.

    Just out of curiosity, are all of them matte blued? My matte blued ones work perfectly the high gloss blued one that I bought does not drop free. Jayman

    Shield Plus mags to watch out for.

    I will run the bad one back this afternoon. I mainly was wondering if anyone else has seen any of these gloss blued ones and if they did had the same issues. It would be interesting to know if this is a common thing or not. Jayman

    Shield Plus mags to watch out for.

    Yes guys it is a 100% factory 13 round magazine. Unless... Promag is allowed to use Smith and Wesson packaging and stamp the Smith and Wesson logo into the magazine body. :)

    Shield Plus mags to watch out for.

    Hey guys I wanted to let you know about an issue that I just discovered. I picked up an extra 13 round magazine at Cabelas in Grandville Mi and noticed that it would not drop free. At first I thought that it might be my gun. Then I tried the 13 round and the 10 round magazines that came with the...

    I have been intrested in a Shield Plus.

    Thanks for the input guys. I really like the 40 S&W round alot. I wish there was a shield plus in that caliber. Eleven or twelve round s of that with the new flat trigger would be even better as far as I am conserned. As a former leo and firearms instructor I had shot tens of thousands round of...

    I have been intrested in a Shield Plus.

    Thanks for the replies guys. I am mulling this over pretty hard today. If I could order a Shield Plus exactly the way I would want it, I think I would get one with fiber optic/tritium sights and be done. I believe that would be the best set up for my needs. Jay

    I have been intrested in a Shield Plus.

    I went to the local Cabellas yesterday and saw that the have a couple versions of the Shield Plus. One was the plain jane version with a set of ear muffs and a range bag. Standard sights came on this gun too. That was $499. The other was the one with the optics ready slide and night sights. This...

    They are out there!

    That is a very nice find. I bought one used about 15 years or so ago. I found it at a LGS in the used case. IIRC, it was $375 with no box or paperwork. I had a 686 that is a tremendously accurate pistol. In fact I shot a lot of bullseye matches with that gun and because of it's accuracy I...

    Epic 686 jam

    I would add to buy a cheap feeler gauge set if you don't have one already and put the correct thickness feeler gauge between the cartridge and the firing pin and then try the suggestions mentioned above. Good luck and may the force be with you. Jayman

    Saw an interesting Shield yesterday.

    I have been looking hard at the Ronin also. I think the LW Commander in .45acp would be a really sweet gun. Jayman

    Firing identical 9mm and .40 pistols. UPDATE: Sold the. 40

    This has been an interesting thread. I wanted to add a couple points based on my experience as a former LEO. I had worked at a couple different department and carried .45 acp and .40 S&W. Never carried a 9mm. At my first job I worked part time at a very small rural department. In the fall...

    top break spring (trigger return)

    I am working on getting my .32 TB, Double Action into working order and I wish that I could find a Youtube video on taking these apart and putting them back together again. Or some assembly drawings of some sort would be nice. Jay

    Saw an interesting Shield yesterday.

    I was in a local shop yesterday and they really didn't have a lot. But they did have a Shield 2.0, 40S&W from the Performance Center. It was pretty cool. It had a 4inch barrel and the fiber optic sight. If I didn't already have my 2.0 Compact 40 I would have considered buying it. Do people...

    So I'm Not Selling my .40 M&P....after last night.

    That is a good point. Although I am not moving my 1911s at this time as I still enjoy shooting them, there are some items in my safe that would be good to unload now. Thanks for the tip. Jay
