[QUOTE="mugsy, post: 2963609, member: 18914"] I have owned two Shields (9mm and 45 ACP) and I think it is fair to say that the Shield, in either caliber, is an excellent sub-compact concealed carry weapon. The only thing I don't like, as a left-handed shooter, is that the I find the low-profile slide release and safety lever (optional) are very difficult for me to operate with the fingers of my left hand, i.e. for one handed quick operation. I found myself continually defaulting to two handed operation, an unwelcome change from how I employ my M&P 9 or 9c. If you are a right-handed shooter I think you will likely be very pleased with a Shield and low-profile controls (that annoy me) make for snag-free draws and very good concealed carry wear. As a cost for value gun, I don't think it can be beat in its class. [/QUOTE]
