S&W M&P Shield 2.0 45acp… anyone have or carrying one? - specops56 - 01-04-2024
I’m seriously thinking of getting one for carry. How well does it carry and conceal? How does it shoot? What’s the recoil impulse like with SD ammo compared to a 1911. I’m also interested in the difference between the regular and Performance Center version. Is it worth the price difference?

I have a first generation M&P .45 and it’s wonderful to shoot, recoil is really mild compared to my 1911’s for some reason 🤷♂️
Do you have a range close to semi close where you can rent one & shoot it?
I’ve not been paying attention to S&W semi autos and have no idea how they are doing quality wise. Know the S&W revolvers are hit or miss as far as quality & having warranty issues
I’m waiting to see what new and improved comes out at shot show in a couple weeks

The couple of indoor ranges that rent guns are on the opposite end of the county from me.

Well then, that’s rather problematic now ain’t it 😱😢😢 Chances are if I wanted a blaster but wanted to shoot it first I’d make a roadtrip out of it & depending on distance possibility even spending the night somewhere.
Furthest I’ve driven to fondle/shoot a pistol I was interested in is about 170 miles & yes I’m crazy 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Never said I wouldn't make the trip. I just want to be sure I'm interested enough to spend almost as much for gas as I will for the gun first.
