Hey Studs,

Got nothing better to do than to spend some early Christmas cash on my S&W MP 9mm Shield. It came with 7 & 8-round mags.

What are the reviews and experiences from you guys on the FAB Defense M&P 9 SHIELD +4 Magazine Extension?

Are there some reliable extension/extra capacity mags you guys recommend?

Thanks,

Reg

I have not tried the FAB Defense version. I have tried extensions by Strike Industries and Hyve. They are both well made but to me they defeat the purpose of a sub compact pistol.
I modified my 7 round Shield mags with Magguts spring kits. The mag in the gun has a Magguts +1 and a Pachmeyer pinky extension. My backup mag has the Magguts +2 baseplate and spring. This gives me 9 rounds in the gun and 9 rounds as backup. I rarely use the original 8 rounders any more.
 
I saw some prices at the gun shop of mag extensions. For the prices I saw, I'd rather just buy another mag. I mean that's one of the advantages over a revolver, quick reload. My gen1 Shield with Two 8 round mags and one seven rounder, plus my pocket J-Frame and speed strip, how much more do I need?
 
Good Logic

I understand what you're saying. The prices are ridiculous and the ferreting through a zillion reviews to ascertain the quality or lack thereof gets mighty old!:rolleyes:
BTW...what J-Frame are you toting...tell me about that?

Sounds like a possibility. Been thinking about a Federal.327 for a while now.
 
I carry S&W J-Frames. I pick one daily for pocket carry. All except the 3".
