Shield Plus, Conversions, Modifications, an Upgrades..

I had a gunsmith do the install for me so I have no idea if he ran into any of those issues. My trigger pull went to just around 4lbs with my lousy gauge. I'd be ok with 3.5 but not much lower. I was happy with the 4lbs as it was about a 1lb lower than before the work.

Pictures and the range update would be cool!

Hawg Rider - tell me about that aftermarket safety. Brand? Seller? Etc.

Thanks,

I do all my own work.. to be honest, a few YouTube videos for anything you don’t/can’t foresee. For example, on a Shield, the take down lever needs to be rotated to a certain degree, it has a block or a tab on it, that needs to line up to be removed.
Don’t have that on other M&Ps, don’t have that on Sigs.. but they do on a shield . That’s the kinda stuff that’ll drive you bonkers.

Would you believe.. I got to the range to meet up with my dad, only to forget to take them out of the safe and into the range bag?
I was left only to fire my dad’s new pistol, a full size M&P Tennessee edition… and another EDC, my C2.. so range time again tomorrow morning, report soon!!

Solid day at the range.
Put a solid 150 or so with the new Shield Plus, the only issue I had?
I had other pistols in the bag getting jealous, with mags pre-loaded for the trip.
Solid shooter, we’ve all seen targets, with a 2.5” Splatter circle, 5 to 10 yards, (and with a red dot) 10 out of 10 shots on the circle when I did my part. Of course, a flinch, forget to breathe, dip, etc., off.
10 to 20 yards out…very consistent, not as tight of a grouping. Which.. is beyond normal/common self defense distance.
Can it hit a silhouette at that distance and further? Absolutely..

My practice is 10 yards and in with the smaller guns. Double taps within a 6inch circle..

I don’t know why I kinda strayed away from S&W..but I’m sure glad I found my way back.

Very nice, sounds like a great day at the range. Yeah I have to leave other pistols at home sometimes or it distracts me from my training goals.
