M&P picture thread.

My new daily carry items. After a long year chasing a Shield without actually chasing it I finally stepped into one. Bad news is I cant seem to shoot it for my life. Me and a friend had with us a Glock 22, CZ BD 9mm and my S&W Model 327 NG and was able to have decent groupings with all. But with the Shield I am shooting seriously low and so was my friend who is a much better shot than me. Im not sure whats going on. Im lining the sights up wrong or pulling the wrong part of the trigger. Not sure. I know I was aiming at the very top of the paper target from just three yards. Shooting at least 6 inches low for me even at that short range. Im sure its me and my friend, I just gotta figure it out. Anyhow, here are my pics since this is a pic thread lol.

And a quick cell pic from our range session. I know, we were pretty messy at the time I took the pic lol. Oh well.

Shield is a combat site picture. You are likely jerking the trigger or anticipating recoil causing you to be low. I do the same with my friends Shield but with my 40c I have no issues. Try shooting from a rest. Also you can have snap caps put in the magazine during your next outing to have a visual indicator of what you are doing.

I like the holster. The CF look appearance of the kydex is nice.

Im sorry. Im not an expert at all. Ive seen a chart in the class I took years ago that showed a #1 #2 #3 site picture but I dont remember names. Is the combat site picture one of these? I tend to use #2. If yes which one? Im gonna go search out combat site picture now anyhow. Hey. Thanks for the nice words and the help.

Site picture #3. Essentially aiming at the top of the target circle.

How do you folks get the white outlining? What do use and how do you keep it in the lines.

I never could color in the lines and now that I am old and shake I don't think I could do something so tedious.

Nail polish. You just paint over the whole logo then wipe up with NON-ACETONE nail polish remover. Wipe lightly so you don't remove the paint in the engravings. Check YouTube.

Thank you. I think I want to attempt this. Does it wear well or is it short lived?

Also, as a more temporary application if you are doubtful you can smash a crayon in there. I did this on my Saiga for the "Made in Russia" so see if I'd like it before I went with paint.

Obligatory picture...

What holster is that?

It's a PJ Holster I waited 3 months for. I also ordered a Cook's holster which is the same material and design. Best part about Cooks is 2 week delivery time. Paul is 3 months back logged with his orders.
