Shield extra mags

[mazdaspeedrx8]

Hey so i looked online to try and find extra mags for my shield anyone know if there are even available yet?

Easier to just buy a second shield! I think S&W has them for sale directly.

i looked on their website but couldnt fine them. But yea i have a shield .40 but want a 9mm one. interesting thing is as a experiment i decided to put some 9mm rounds in the .40 mag and guess what they fit in and work fine! But that was just a experiment not gonna try that when im carrying ha

If you call S&W you can backorder them. They are 4-6 weeks out from shipping.

That's interesting. Wonder what the possible consequences are of running 9mm in a 40? Not something I'd be brave enough to try though lol.

You talking about actually shooting 9mm rounds through the .40? or using the .40 mag in the 9mm shield?

Why would you do that? IMO .. an accident waiting.

I had a friend accidentally load 9mm into a Springfield XDm chambered for 40 and it would not fire the 9mm rounds (thankfully).

If you mean using a .40 mag in a 9mm, with 9mm ammo, it will probably work, to one degree or another. I know the Beretta M96 mag is (or at least used to be) identical to the 9mm mag, as far as dimensions and follower.

The breechface of a 9mm is different from that of the 40 caliber and so it will not work Breechface - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

So you have to call them to order spare mag then?

I placed my order over the phone about three weeks ago. I prefer to speak with a human if possible.

 

[mazdaspeedrx8]

ok long wait to get the mags then huh?

 

[kris7047th]

Yup .. with the HUGE demand of the gun and having enough mags for the orders, we are last to get served. That is to be expected. It's the same way with other models. I ordered two and I am giving one as a surprise to a friend who did the trigger work on mine and would not take any $$ from me. He called it R&D and was just glad that I brought it in immediately for him to inspect. I bought mine on 4/13 and Cabelas was the fist store to receive shipments to sell in my area. I bought the very first Shield they sold.
I would guess the mags won't appear until the demand eases some, like what happened with the Bodyguard, but this is much bigger.

I actually found three on the shelf at my LGS. I bought one for myself and the other two for friends that ended up not wanting them if anybody is interested. The price was a little high but I figured you gotta pay to play. If anybody is looking I would sell the two for what I paid plus shipping.

What did you per mag? From S&W was about $38

 

[Shielded]

How much? & what caliber? Thanks!

 

[Redneckbmxer24]

Message me if you want to know the price, I'm not sure what this sites rules are about selling things outside the classifieds and I don't want to violate them. They are 9MM and I will say they were a bit more than $38.
