I voted 9mm because I just bought one last week for $409 cash price at my local gun shop.
 
Yes, I put my name on the waiting list to get one for my wife at my lgs and got the call 3 weeks later and ended up paying $465 out the door. I liked it so much that I put my name on the list again so hopefully I will get the call in the next few weeks.

I wont pay a fortune but ill pay a little more than I "should". My time is valuable and if I spend $50 to save weeks/months looking for a cheap one...what have I been doing?

I don't even know what msrp is. I found mine at reasonable (not deal of the century) prices.
 
Until I can actually get one in my hand to see how it feels, I can't say yes or no. How it fits and points are my critical factors. Upgrades and tuning can always be done if required as long as the first two items are acceptable.

If yes, I'll go for the 40, and eventually get a 9mm barrel for flexibility.
 
My dealer quoted $420 6 months ago when I ordered one, just picked it up and paid $420.
 
My LGS called & said the .40 S&W Shield that I was on a 6 month waiting list for was in. I arrived & when one of the owners brought it out he told me the price was $559.00!! I told him "No Thanks".
 
I found one over MSRP today at the local gun show. After really giving it some thought and thinking about walking away I decided it is so hard to find them at this point I decided to buy it. In the end I am very happy just to have it in my hand. Oh ya it was the 9mm. If I can find anymore anywhere near MSRP I will buy them too. Great money maker on GB.

I was between that and the XDS. There were over 30 XDS there today. I just love the fit and shot of the Shield.

This should now be your "former" LGS.

I paid more than list for my 9mm Shield...I just simply got tired of waiting more than 5 months and grabbed the only one at a gun show a few months back. No regrets either.

At the same gun show yesterday in Fort Worth, some private owner was asking $650 for a NIB 9mm Shield...didn't notice any takers. Another dealer at the show was asking $499 for an M&P 22...its gotten ridiculous. All signs indicate that the clowns in Congress will not institute any type of gun ban, only possibly extending background checks. If these idiots would just hold a vote and put the issue to bed, maybe then we'll see a relaxation in prices. But until that happens, things will be up in the air (including prices).
