S&W Shield 45

[YukonGlocker]

I don't think there's a single difference in their .40SW and .357Sig except the barrel. Beyond that it's just markings and packaging? Glock clearly sold enough of theirs. I just don't buy it, unless they are just completely eat up with the Kaizen/Six Sigma/Lean BS in their accounting dept. which is entirely possible, I've seen some really stupid stuff in that vein.

S&W does a lot of things that don't make total sense to me.

Yeah, I agree...like they need to copy that pop-up red safety thingee from Ruger to go along with the lawyer lock so then we'd really be safe!

Not me. I'm not a 45 guy. I'll stick with my 9.

Well, I got to hold one yesterday. I am impressed. I really has nice texturing to the grip, decent trigger and in a side by side comparison to the other Shields, really not that much larger. For 45acp shooters I think S&W did this right.

Where'd you try one on for size? Does a local shop have them in stock?

And SSP price is 30 bucks cheaper

The rep has one at H&H's expo going on through the weekend that you can shoot for the price of ammo.

Not my cup-o-tea. Wait; I guess I'd better hold one and check it out before I say "no" for certain. Open minded; that's me.
