help me see the differences....

I think your questions (in some cases) were so far off people thought this was sort of a joke.
Basically 2 shields, a 9mm and.40 (single stack)
There is a m&p full size in 9 and 40 as well (double stack)
There is an M&Pc (c for compact). Same basic gun as the full size 9 and 40 with a shorter grip frame and may be a tad shorter in length. Uses same basic mag as the full size (fs) m&p. The fs can not use the shorter mags of the compact.

Shield is a thinner gun. Witnesses/owners claim to be highly reliable, comfy, with a nice trigger for a self protection weapon. Especially for the money.
Many many people have switched to the shield from other larger or same size pistols. But finding one is verb difficult to find these days.
Shield has a thin safety that is almost flush on the gun so if you don't want it don't engage it and it will not be an issue at all.
The mag disconnect can be deactivated on m&p hand guns. YouTube videos show u how.
So now annoying safety's Are not an issue.
Bullet in the chamber indicator is basically a hole in top of the gun that you look into. You see shinny brass it's loaded.

If trigger is an issue for you (which the shield isn't bad at all) there are aftermarket kits to improve that and more YouTube videos to show you how.

Reliability and comfort in the hands are my main concerns. Those 2 things can't really be changed with aftermarket parts. But triggers are an easy fix if everything else on the gun is to your liking :-)

Good luck on your search

What the OP really needs is a Magnum Research BFR 10" barrel chambered in S&W .500. At least I think that's what he's looking for in a gun. I honestly cannot tell????????
