    Traded my Shield 40 for a Shield 9 - finally at peace

    You can run 9mm rounds in the .40 magazine :D and use them in your 9mm. I spent the day shooting 200 rounds using both the 9mm mag and .40 mag loaded with 9mm rounds, not one issue or feed problems.

    SHIELD - Printing

    I carry in the 3 to 3:30 position with zero printing, as others have said, dress around your carry weapon also try changing the tilt angle.

    When carrying the Shield concealed

    I always carry with the extended Mag, being 6'6" it fits my hand better.

    M&P Shield 40 Safe?

    Speaking of setback, this "may" be the culprit for many of the "kabooms" seen. Here are 2 pictures, 2nd one I added a height line to show how some can be significantly setback, almost halfway in.

    Again, another Shield 40 blow up... R.I.P.

    I think that this pictures speaks volumes as to a potential cause. That is "MASSIVE" bullet setback !

    Please give advise on IWB and OWB for new shield 9mm.

    IMO, for an IWB holster, Hidden Hybrid Holsters hands down ! Best fitting kydex for my shield and I have quite a few IWB holsters, HHH feels the best, fits the gun the best and can be used IWB or OWB. Just my .02

    Looking to buy a carry pistol.

    Not to bicker, but the Shield is Stainless, well the slide and barrel is and the rest is composite so I don't see where perspiration would be an issue with a Shield vs an ALL stainless gun. ;-)

    Looking to buy a carry pistol.

    Honestly you cant go wrong with a Shield in either 9mm or .40 cal. I am 6'6" tall and it still feels great in my hands and shots like a dream and conceals perfectly IMO. I use a IWB Hidden Hybrid Holster here in Texas with no issues, and everyone knows its like a Mircrowave oven here in the...

    M&P Shield CC/Gun Issues & Problems

    Slide/recoil spring question

    I took my recently purchased Shield 9mm out to the range and ran 100 rounds through it ,worked flawlessly, no FTE, FTF etc. Upon getting home to take it apart and clean it, I noticed the Slide/recoil spring looked all cockeyed when I removed it to take out the barrel. I checked it against my...

    40 or 9mm

    I have both the 9mm and 40 in the Shield, and honestly, love them both. I also have a Ruger P85 mkII that I have had for the better part of 20years and its still a favorite of mine, shoots great and very reliable gun, just too big for a conceal carry IMO hence why I went with the Shield (s) ...
