Default Smith and Wesson Shield

Will S&W start producing a 45 Cal. Shield? Seems like a good idea to me.

For S&W to do a .45 version of the Shield, they would (pretty much) need to redesign it from the ground up in order to handle the .45. SA on the other hand started with the XD-S in .45, THEN added the 9mm and .40, which is a LOT easier to do.

Something tells me that if S&W saw the potential for great sales, they would have already done a .45 version by now.
