Message: <blockquote data-quote="POKE1911" data-source="post: 2871691" data-attributes="member: 24536">Maybe I got lucky with my shield mags. I thought the 8th round was a bit difficult, but not more difficult than the 15th round in my HK mags. Then again, I also bought mine used. No clue about the round count but seems well broken in - maybe that's the key. I agree it should be addressed if it is an issue for that many people though. On to the performance of the shield. I absolutely love mine. I bought it used with night sights. enough savings to add in an APEX trigger kit. It seems to fit my hands really well, as well as my 1911 just way different. I have large-ish hands (maybe it's the meat pattern). Then I found a great buy on a crimson trace laser guard for it. Have not shot it since I installed it but I thought it would be a nice addition especially at the right price. So in all I have the shield with factory night sights, apex trigger, and crimson trace with about $550 in it. I bought the shield and the VP9 on the same week and I like the VP9 but the shield blew me away.</blockquote>
