How much did you pay for your M&P Shield?

If it ever shows up (been waiting 3 months), I'll be paying $403.00 + tax.
 
I have noticed some folks saying they had to pay for title and license in addition to their Shield. Just curious, what states require those fees and how much are they?

Here in Minnesota you need to apply for a permit to purchase pistols and AR style firearms. It's free from your local law enforcement manicapality and takes about 5 business days to process. It is good for one year and you can buy multiple firearms with the permit.

We also have the position of taking a CCW class and obtaining a CC permit. The permit alone costs $100 but it is good for 5years and allows you purchase pistols and AR weapons during that period. Renewals requie a refresher course and are only $75. Sorry to be off topic..just got me wondering.
 
$335 shipped from Buds Guns Police yesterday. Thought I'd never find one.

Yep, I just saw that and they are now backordered.... The website even went down while I was ordering my 642 for $325. I had to call!

EDIT: They are swamped. I'm still on hold to see if the LE version has three mags.....

Let us know if they come with three mags. I ordered one from Bud's Police Supply last night, might have gotten the last one.
Web sight went down right after I finished my order. Thanks.
 
They must be just SLAMMED over there. I had a 25 minute wait on hold. The website crashed twice on me in half an hour.

Bud's CS said they come with just two magazines.... :(

That's very generous of them, since dealer cost is $325. Figure $10 for shipping [should be more for shipping a pistol].How can they stay in business selling guns at cost? GARY N4KVE

Probably helps that they sell them for $449 on their regular site Gary. Maybe they get the MIL/LEO guns at a better price too. Don't know. I was just happy to get one. Hadn't checked anyplace in a few days as I'm in Seattle visiting daughter. Caught me by surprise when I saw them available on Buds MIL/LEO site and I jumped on one.

Sounds like I need to wait until my LEO dealer gets the Shield in stock. Looks to be over a $100 savings versus the LGS.
