Matt from Down Range Firearm Training recently purchased a second M&P Shield. In the video below, he talks about some of the changes he made to the pistol, including some work done by Lou at Business End Customs. What I found particularly interesting is that Matt now has 5,000 flawless rounds through his first M&P Shield. That’s pretty impressive!
I have about 1,500 rounds through my Shield, and still just the one failure. Now that we are heading into cooler temperatures (finally), I will carry the Shield less, therefore it will see fewer rounds at range sessions.
On a side note, I want to trade jobs with Matt…
Told you not to sweat the one failure. 😉
Yes you did…I put a couple hundred rounds through it after it came back from S&W to make sure, then started carrying it again. I still haven’t decided on whether or not I want to get a pocket carry backup gun.
What’s your winter carry? The 19 or the FS M&P?
You read my mind…writing a post on that right now.
That is Great news. I have been on the backorder list here in ny for 2 months for my .40 shield and eagerly await the call from the gunshop that its ready for pickup.
