Congrats on the new gun buddy. I currently am carrying an XD .40S&W Sub Compact but the Shield has been interesting me for a while. My next handgun will probably be a Glock 29 because I have always wanted a 10mm, it's just a bad *** round. Anyways, on down the road I will probably be in the market for a Shield in 9mm because of how concealable they are and it would probably take the place of my .380 for those times when I just can't conceal my .40, which is a rare occasion. For home defense ammo you might want to look into Glaser. I haven't got my hands on any of it yet but the NRA instructor that taught my concealed carry class was singing praises about it. He said it will go through one layer of sheetrock but not two, making it less likely for you to hit an innocent something or someone in the next room over. "Let me warn you though, if you shoot someone with this ammo it will damn near cut them in half". Anyways congrats on the new toy!

I think S&W hit a home run with the Shield. I hear more people talking about the Shield than any other CC gun right now. Be sure and let us know how you like it once you get to put a few hundred rounds through her.

That's what I'm talking about! I'm a big fan of the little flame throwers. I doubt the 29 would be much fun to put a ton of rounds through in one sitting but I would sure love to try

I saw Uncle Ted get charged by a cape buffalo and drop him in his tracks with one well placed 10mm round.........good enough for me lol.
