Hello all, I thought I'd share my S&W collection: 642 in .38 special M&P Shield in 9mm, 1.0 M&P Bodyguard in .380 ACP Newest addition is the Bodyguard .380. Just took it to the range last week with 100 flawless rounds. I'd like to add one day a good .357 magnum revolver and an M&P Sport II...

Hi, I installed a Taran tactical base pad about 3 months ago on my Shield 9 and I just noticed the other day my gun was making a rattling noise with my safety off so I field stripped it and I noticed my ejector wiggles back and forth a little. I put a magazine in it with my Taran tactical base...

I picked up a new Shield Plus yesterday- I had the OG Shield and currently carry the Shield 2.0 which I love. When I got home I noticed that my trigger safety (dingus) had a lot of slop in it, and depending on how the gun was oriented, it would extend fully, or do the opposite and retract a...

I'm new to this forum & to Smith & Wesson so I have a lot to learn. I have a 9 Plus performance center and have the following ?s What does this mean "TS FO EDC"? Is the trigger different on the performance center Shield vs. non-performance center Shield? What are the pounds of pull on the...

Hey there. I just found out this forum and excited to learn more from the community. I just purchased my first handgun, a S&W Shield. I'll be taking classes next week. We'll see how it goes.

I'm brand new to this forum. For my personal defense sidearm, I carry an M&P SHIELD .40 in an Alien Gear Holsters ShapeShift Modular Holster System. I've been carrying for 5 years & got started, thanks to the Emmanuel AME Church shooting. I'm going to be adding an M&P15 Sport II soon.

Just had the apex flat trigger kit installed on my MA shield. The trigger was #10+. I wanted it to be brought down to the #5.5 ish area. Got the gun back and now its in the 3-4 ish pounds. Does anybody know what I can do to bring it back up. Is it just replace a spring? I have the original parts...

SOLD M&P Shield 9mm Barrel ** SOLD ** Bought this off eBay about three years ago and never used it. $50 shipped.

I've owned a few S&W revolvers like the 642, 640PD, 19-4, etc. But I've never owned a pistol - until now. The current rebate deal made me jump off the Glock Fanboy Express and pick up a Shield 9mm. I liked it so much I just ordered a second one! My GLOCK43 is now listed on GunBroker :o Don't...

Got a new M&P Shield 9 Dark Earth. Paid $389 before the rebate. Any suggestions on an IWB holster? And what cleaning products do you use? Thanks, David IV

Newbie: Why is my S&W M&P Shield referred to as a Luger? Should I use 9mm Luger ammo Hi everyone! I am new to shooting 9mms (started shooting just this past spring on 22s), I just ordered a S&W M&P Performance Center 9mm which I will get this weekend. I see that it is referred to as Luger...

Typically all commercially produced firearms have horrible trigger pulls... and so most people use 3rd party manufacturers and spend a lot of money correcting the inadequacies of the gun maker... My question is has anyone replaced their stock Shield trigger with a better lesser pull trigger...

Out of sheer boredom I attempted to reassemble my shield in the dark. I messed up and installed my recoil spring backwards, and now the plunger or piston is sticking out the front about a half an inch or so. I cannot rack the slide back far enough to manipulate the takedown lever into the proper...

If I have a new or fully cleaned 9mm Shield, after how many rounds must I strip an lubricate it. I am a newbie and have no clue. For example, if I go to the range and fire 100 rounds, would I need a complete cleaning and lube? Should I just clean the bore after a session like that or do nothing...

I have been lurking around for a while and decided to finally register. I was finally able to acquire a CA Compliant M&P Shield in 9mm, which I will be picking up this week. This will be my first S&W handgun, and I am very much looking forward to going shooting with it. Craig

Hey Mr. S&W - when were you going to tell me about the possibility of an accidental discharge on my Shield if I happenned to drop it? Why do I have to read about this in the NRA November magazine? I registered my pistol with you, serial number, Email, and all. Yet I hear nothing from S&W...

Special THANK YOU to DGM33 for letting us borrow his Shield for the photo shoot. :bow: Photographing the M&P Shield has really made me reconsider what I carry daily, which has been the S&W M&P 9 compact. When I am not carrying the 9c, I carry the Sig Sauer P238 Equinox in my pocket. This...

I just got a new Shield 9mm and love it. When I was in the store I field stripped it using the trigger pull method, and put it back together, no problem. I went right to the range, shot it and brought it home. After I cleaned it I had a terrible time getting the slide to lock back before...

The Market Team at Smith & Wesson Should win an award for the way they pushed this gun. I dare say they followed APPLES marketing plan of attack. Question is, is the gun any good?
