California Compliant M&P Shield

[PastureOfMuppets]

Unfortunately, companies, like Ruger, dropping out of CA altogether hurts our cause dramatically. This is exactly what the anti gun crowd wants. They don't really care about catching criminals. They just want to improve their illusion of control.

They will all drop off is the unfortunate reality. How long will Glock keep making the Gen 3?

All companies improve their guns, and any change means they have to re-certify. That's why Ruger have found themselves doing so.

The only way this will be resolved is with court action or... the big companies refusing to sell to LEO agencies the firearms they can not sell to other civilians.

Which of course is a whole different topic. I'm not honestly sure yet where I stand on that idea...

Yes, it was the CA version with the flip up chamber indicator and everything.

Not saying you didn't see one, but S&W says they haven't started production of these and aren't scheduled to until March of this year.

Held a CA compliant Shield 9mm in my hand at Just Guns in Sacramento yesterday. Purchased it on the spot. I pick it up in nine days.

Saw one yesterday at my LGS. He mostly does SSE handguns so this one may sit around for a while if anyone is looking.
Its 9mm - Lincoln, CA

Purchased a Shield .40 on 4/16/14 at the Gun Shop in Lancaster, CA. Pick it up in 2 days. They could not get the 9mm and had just one .40 in stock so I bought it.
