Love my Pearce extensions. I actually prefer shooting with the short mag now.

I have my Texas CHL (CCW) and although my Shield 40 is my EDC My Shield 9 is identical and I have the pearce grip on both pistols. Using my Shield 9 as an example, there is no difference in length of the grip between the pearce extension & stock 8 rnd magazine. The thing is the pearce grip "feels" better in my hand and that is what is most important. On my 5'-11" 165lb frame the Shield melts away into nothingness in my alien gear cloak tuck 2.0 IWB holster. (highly recommended for the shield) and with the 8 rnd mag the heel of the mag catches slightly on my shirt however if I throw a short sleeve button up shirt over the Tee then that hides any hint of printing. with the shorter mag & pearce grip I have a better grip on the pistol that just the flat bottom, yet it wont catch my shirt.
The pic shows my Shield 40 with the stock 6 rnd mag & pearce extension in my AG holster.
I've debated many times on whether I "really" needed that one extra round or not (8 rnd mag vs the 7 rnd on the shield 9) but in reality the 7 rnd mag with the pearce grip feels better.
