So, I finally purchased an M&P Shield9 a couple of weeks ago to be used as my EDC. Was carrying a Taurus .357 snubby prior, but found it to not be terribly comfortable. Anyway, I have put 200 rnds through the Shield - 100 the first day at the range and then another on a subsequent trip. No issues at all on the first outing, but experienced some FTE's (3x I believe) during my second outing during the last 25 rounds fired. I believe it was probably due to fatigue/limp wristing. At least that is my working theory. I'd be open to any other thoughts on that.
Also, I have noticed that after emptying the gun (when using the 7rnd mag) that when I press the mag release, the magazine unseats, but does not drop on its own...I have to pull it out. I was wondering if this is normal?
I appreciate your thoughts/ideas on these issues. Thanks!
