Thank you. I'll guess the angle has to be less, to keep the grip width down. When some mentioned a plus grip was thicker, I thought it might have been as thick as a "standard" M&P.
Thanks again, trying to make certain decisions.

How about all Shield Plus magazines are going into boxes with brand new Shield Plus guns. Imagine if they had guns they couldn't sell because there weren't enough mags to put in every box because some people want extra mags. Once mag production catches up so every gun will have the required mags in the box, S&W can then worry about making mags for people who need extra mags. I was in the auto parts business for many years, & when we couldn't get parts, it was because every part made went to cars being produced on the line. The production of replacement parts was secondary to the production of parts to build cars. GARY.

I think that I saw two or types types of M&P Shield Mags at Academy in Webster this afternoon. Don't remember shield plus by name if it is different from shield. They only had one or two of each. Good luck!
Wow, that's insane!
I must have won the lottery when I found/bought two for $40/ea. (I'll keep looking for a couple of more but this will tide me over for now).

Wow, that's crazy. I wonder if whoever bought that $305 dollar magazine is also stacking up cases of $800/case 9mm FMJ. At $305 it would have been cheaper to buy another gun since they come with two magazines.
I also wonder if whoever the seller is will actually get paid. Since you can leave negative feedback on buyers at GB it is not as bad as Ebay. But in my limited experience selling there having someone win an auction and back out is a problem.
That's insanity. I'd buy another pistol and sell it with the 10 round mag before I'd pay $300 for 13 round mag alone.

If Mec-gar does make the S&W Shield Plus magazine it may be a real long time before we start seeing them for sale here. Thats if they only make them in Italy! Italy and Europe are still having outbreaks of Covid-19 and might be shutting down again! The EU is not purchasing the available Covid-19 vaccine for their citizens. Many Italians are traveling to Bosnia in an attempt to receive the Jab!

Don't buy the gun if mags are not available.
Well i find it quite funny how all you people defend that S&W when they KNEW demand was going to be high, they KNEW talk of a mag ban might happen, and what do they do introduce a good gun(the best shield version yet), but the inability of getting extra mags. This is just plain stupid. Yes, other companies except for Glock and Sig have done this. Well I must say the people here are worse than glock fan boys. Selling mine and getting another P365 just as good or better of a gun and mags are easy to get. I feel sorry for all the suckers that bought a shield plus. We certainly are telling everyone get a Hellcat, P365, or glock 43(shield arms mags). I mean a 10rd in that gun is pointless.

Believe it or not, the vast majority of people buying this gun will never purchase extra magazines for it. S&W would have been foolish to wait until they were available to release the gun. For someone that is buying a gun for self defense, which is the Shield Plus's target market, two mags is fine. They are not going to be attending classes with a lot of rounds fired, shooting their Shields in competition that requires extra magazines, shooting so many rounds they wear out the springs in the two included mags or stepping on magazines while practicing tactical reloads.
While extra magazines may be a requirement for you and me the world does not revolve around us.

Does that count as a negligent discharge?
I guess you don't remember that P365 mags were just as difficult to find when IT 1st hit the market, eh?
(or did you wait a few Months before buying it?)

Y'all that insist on having a minimum of 10 mags for a pistol do understand that this is a modern design and it does not use 1911 magazines, don't you?
Hey thanks for the info. S&W told me this week that all magazine production is currently matching gun production but anticipate they will shortly be able to add to magazine inventory.
Yeah I can't wait to add a few more 13 rnd mags. Hopefully this comes soon.

I cut 1 loop off of the magazine spring in the extended mag. Still very tough to rack the slide, but there is a difference. But now the slide doesn't lock open on last round as well. I make boo boo. Going to have to wait for replacement springs to hit the market( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) or maybe I can get a spring for Shield 2.0 and cut it to the right number of loops.
