I have had that nagging in the back of my head since it came out to get one.

Looked at one at Riverview in East Windsor and didn't have the money. I just can't justify the purchase. It's too similar to my Kahr CW9. Let me know how you like it. I'll most likely buy it when you decide it's not right for you. 8O

I was out and about today, Hoffmans has a 9mm Shield on the range(all sold out of the retail guns) so i gave it a go and.....its better than I expected :)
That, and their range gun hasn't missed a beat in 1000's of rounds since they put it out.
Can't wait to get mine....

Are shops still getting shipments each week and they are just selling immediately (or already spoken for) or is it a back order situation?

Has anyone picked one of these up and been carrying it on a daily basis? I've been trying to find one but still no luck. I'm curious how anyone who has one feels about it.

Mine should be in anytime, apparently most people are ordering .40's so(I'm told) I am 1st in line for the next 9mm that comes in.

I'm with you....looking for the 9mm but can't seem to get my hands on one. I shot one at Hoffman's and it felt great. I was surprised at how much i liked it. I would imagine it will carry really well but would love to hear what you think once you get yours in.

After I shot the one at Hoff's, the salesman I talked too was pushing hard to get me to order one, he said it shouldn't be a long wait...(I had already put a deposit down elsewhere)
I agree shooting the Shield was great.....its going too be a seriously popular gun.

That's pretty funny. We must have dealt with the same person at Hoffman's. They were all over me pushing for an order. I usually get my stuff from NGX and have been on the list there for a couple of weeks so have been trying to just wait it out but it's getting really tough!! Smith did a great job with this one though.....they've got a winner from all appearances.

I'm in Wethersfield. I think the guy said they were opening at 7:00 today so they are probably already going strong. I've actually never been there before. Is it a good shop?
