Have the 40 Shield with the 9mm barrel....chance to buy a Shield 9

[PodPeople]

I use 9mm at the range for cheap plinking and i use 9mm for my CW.

Just wondering why wouldn't you use the 40 barrel in your CW or did you really mean 40?

Keep the .40 & develop the appropriate grip strength.

Proper Shooting is not grip strength, its forward push on the strong hand and rearward pull on the weak. That is the proper way to shoot and shoot all day without hand fatigue

Practice what you carry. Train that muscle memory. Count those shots. Develop a cadence.
If you value "manning up with 40cal" over being as effective and proficient as you can be via the 9mm, then stick with the 40.
If you want to shoot 8 round strings of 9mm at the range and carry 7 of 40, also your prerogative. I just don't think the extra cost of a barrel and disparity in training to carry is worth the bit of ammo cost saving.

I guess the real question is. How much would u be willing to pay for a unicorn at a troll convention?

I agree with this. Muscle memory is everything. I remember a post on this forum that said, "anyone that says they shoot better with a .40cal than a 9mm is a liar." I shot mainly .40cal for 4 years straight. There is a point where you aren't even aware of recoil. When I occasionally shot 9mm I was not better! I shoot both now and enjoy both.

Does anyone know the S&W part number for a 9mm Shield barrel?

In my experience, there is a night and day difference in the shooting experience of the M&P compacts and the Shields. If you want a 40, get the M&P40c.
