9mm Shield on order

[camsdaddy]

I have a feeling my lgs grabbed a few of those from buds the other day. I am getting I from him on tues.

I asked my LGS to get me a Shield 9mm at the first of the year and picked it up 2 weeks later.

He got 12 that day. All were sold on arrival.

Are no Shields shipping to MI? I've been on a waiting list since November, all of the local stores say it will probably be a year or more. Most say their waiting lists are about 100 names long, and they haven't seen a single shield in a couple of months.

I was in a LGS yesterday and the sales guy was showing a woman the 9mm Shield. She was hemming and hawing. When she said she wanted to think about it I chimed in that I'd buy it if she declined. Turns out it was a special order for someone else and he was just showing her the size of it

That being said, the order slip had an order date of 11/5 and looks like it came in on 1/8. So it was ordered before the shtf and still took 2 months to be delivered

I have another LGS looking for one for me but if I can find a 40 Shield I may go that route and find a drop in 9 barrel

I just did the same thing. Every time I go the LGS which happens to have a range as well, I ask if the have em. They did last time. I bought 2 of the 3, and promptly sold them on gunbroker for about 100 bucks more than what I paid.

Got the shield exactly 2 months after I ordered it. It shoots amazingly well for such a small gun. I'm pretty happy with it.

are ya'll with Shield 9s from Buds talking to a certain individual?

I call once a week and each time a different person tells me they have not had any for a long time.

I have been on the wait (email) list since July 2012. I read on the forum that Buds does not email, so I questioned Buds and they say the email function still works.

I bought a used 9c on the forum and get to put the first rounds through it tomorrow.

Still want a Shield 9!!!!!!!!! I would prefer 335 but I am of the mindset that it might take more to get into a Shield now!!!!!!

if anyone has knowledge for an LEO purchase Shield 9 for the $335 price....let me know. Credit Card and FFL has been collecting dust since July 2012

Found one at the LGS and paid $499 for it.

 

[SW CQB 45]

Well, I contacted a Gun Store about an hour away to order me one.

more than $335 for sure

Shot the 9c today. shot good and the wife liked it. It will be hers.

Just wanted to chime in y'all I'm in the VA Hampton roads area. I was put on a waiting list in may 2012, gave up after 6 months of weekly calling gave up completely actually. Decided on a G26 just as hard to find right now got a tip from a gentleman on the glock forum out me in touch w a Richmond police supplier. Put a G26 on order was told 2 months maybe well me being me I decided to drop in one day remember I said I gave up looking or even asking about shields to eleviate frustration. Walked right past the s and w counter to glock nothing turned to walk out much to my surprise 3 shields 2 -40. 1-9mm. Guys were in there fingering and drooling over these three that had no idea what they were holding or how rare it was to find. Immediately walked to the car grabbed my military orders and other info and purchased it. Sticker price 450 and they had a shelf full of flush plate mags for it 33 dollars. I asked for mil/Leo discount couldn't do it because they were into it just under the sticker price but offered to order me one w the discount said 2 weeks tops I said mmm no thank you. Noone in this place seemed to understand how hot this gun is unless they rly do see it every day and constantly get them. I will not disclose this place on here but will reply to private emails if your in this area. By the way I love this pistol want a 40 now shoulda got it and begged for someone to sell the barrel but the known mag drops turned me off.

You know the minute you get your Shield home Bud's will put 10,000 of them up for $335.

Well you can always get another....

I haven't seen Shields on the website for a long time. I did pick up a couple AR15's last month for $645 after the rebate... That's the OR model too!

You have to keep checking! If you look at the AR threads you will see we keep posting when they are in stock. If I see Shields I'll let you know!

thanks LL.

I actually want two Shields. One for me for conceal or bag carry when I am at work.....and one for the wife.

Today I took my wife and daughter shooting.

My wife like the 9c....so I will give her that one as her primary. I just ordered her a CT rail laser for it.

I lost my two piece Krylon Camo (meaning a Gen 3 rough lower and a older Gen 2 upper) G17 today. My daughter liked it. I will be issued a new G17 Gen 4 when they come into the academy so no big loss.

I think I still want two Shield 9s.

thanks again for looking out. The dealer I spoke with said he had two last month.
