[itr674]

Saw a M&P Shield 9mm at local shop this weekend and it was a new smaller cardboard box, anyone else seen this?

The Shields all come in a cardboard box.

Shield 9mm New

Picked up a new Shield 9 on Friday. Old Style S&W Cardboard box is what it came in.

Yep, cardboard box. They figured you would be wearing it all the time so you wouldn't need a nice case.

Sign of the times I guess....probably saves them 100's of thousands (if not more) per year over cost of plastic cases. Wondering, does anyone know if any other NEW S&W pistols other than Shield come in cardboard rather than plastic box?

I bought a new M&P 40 Pro Series last month. It came in the plastic box.

Plastics boxes and cardboard ones just take up space in my closet

I think S&W is trying to keep up with Les Baer.

Did S&W come out with a Pro Series Shield, and it comes in a nice plastic case?

Sd9ve/sd40ve both come in cardboard boxes

as do the bodyguards and cheaper revolvers....... its a price point thing, seems to be anything >$500 retail gets a plastic case....



Oops I should have said MSRP.... I have seen shields inflated but the -fair- price is around $450.........

Yes the J-Frames have been coming in cardboard the last few years, along with the Bodyguards.
