Tag Archives: M&P Shield

I get a lot of questions about why I recommend certain singlestack 9mm concealed carry pistols and not others. Rather than type up a big long blog post, I figured I’d do something a little different and fire up the camera gear and do a video on the singlestack 9’s in my life, and why I like them. It basically comes down to a set of criteria that I’ve mentioned a few times: – 7+1 …

This pistol looks like a winner! Still hoping for an optional thumb safety, but man, it looks nice! All the details can be found on S&W’s website here: http://www.smith-wesson.com/wcsstore/SmWesson2/MP_Shield/index.html 9mm Product Page here. .40 Product Page here.

Alright, this appears to be the same photo presented on my other post about the Shield, however, this one does not have the background removed, and gives us a little better look at the pistol. Very hard to tell the width of the pistol from this picture, but I’m really hoping that it is a singlestack 9mm, and I really, really hope it is available without the thumb safety.
