    Twist Rate Newbie

    In a nutshell, if the bullet spins too slowly, it becomes unstable. If the bullet spins too fast the nose of the bullet will not follow the arc of trajectory. It will fall sideways, so to speak.

    Shield 40 sights way off

    If you're right handed and the gun is hitting low and left, try shooting with your left hand, if you shoot low and right it's you not the gun...

    Good bye PPS/Hello Shield

    I’ve been away for awhile; this is first chance to respond to posts. First; the PPS is sold, bought by a guy that has an H&K, he likes the paddle release. Second; I don’t have any issues with the Shield, It’s a great shooting gun. Even though I think the PPS is more accurate and a little higher...

    Good bye PPS/Hello Shield

    Eight months ago I put my name on a list for a Shield 40. After two months of waiting thinking I’ll never get this thing I bought a Walther PPS 40. Well, the Shield finally came in. I picked the gun up last week. I have to say I was a little reluctant to buy it because the PPS is a great...

    Shield or Bodyguard?

    Here’s my thoughts; you already have an M&P 9C (Nice gun) you can carry inside the waistband, so you have a great gun you can carry concealed, the shield isn’t going the print that much less than the 9c. When wearing shorts and a tee shirt the Bodyguard can be carried in your pocket, you can...

    Shield problem POI low and left

    You can't fix that gun, how much do you want for that crappy piece of s*#t. I'd be interested.

    The Bodyguard 380 has full size service gun accuracy in a pocket pistol!!

    All I can say is; Ditto on all the TheMystro’s points. Try taking the target out to 25 yards, you’ll be surprised.

    BG Botch

    When I was looking for a small pocket gun I was able to compare and shoot the Sig P238, Ruger LCP and the S&W Bodyguard. All were 380’s. Because of what I considered to be deficiencies with the Ruger (which I posted earlier) it came down to the Sig and BG. The Sig is a nice gun, I mean really...

    BG Botch

    Sounds like you already made up your mind. However, before I purchased the Bodyguard, I was able to shoot the LCP and the Bodyguard. The difference between the two are; The Bodyguard has less recoil snap, better sights, better accuracy, (much better) double strike capability, slide locks open on...

    Bodyguard 380...Love it or List it?

    That's what mine was doing, The laser mounting screw was loose and would not tighten, I found the threaded insert pulled out of the frame. I had to send it back to S&W.

    Brand new Bodyguard 380 broken.

    If left as is, I agree. I liked the idea of having a laser on a small pocket carry and not having to bring the gun up to eye level to aim. The laser worked well for a couple of rounds anyway. The Bodyguard as a whole is a nice package, it was what I was looking for. After removing the laser I...

    Brand new Bodyguard 380 broken.

    I think S&W has a real issue with the Bodyguard 380, after all I’ve read about the problems S&W has had with this gun, I went and bought one anyway. Now, four days later. I have one with problems too. After five rounds, the laser dot started to drift downward, I adjusted it back on target, and...

    Oil or grease on S&W Autos?

    I’ve come up with my own concoction or method to keep my locked breech autos lubed. After cleaning I coat the barrel the slide rails and inside of the slide (forward of the ejection port) with silicon grease, wipe off all of the excess until it appears dry, (it isn’t) then I apply a very light...
