Well, I stopped by Academy yesterday to waste some time and to my amazement they had S&W Shields in 9mm and .40! The price is now up to $450 compared to $400 pre-craziness. I passed on it and left the store kicking myself for not getting one.
So, this morning I thought I would stop by and see if they had any ammo and if, by chance, the Shields were still there. By luck they still had them in both calibers. I lucked out and got the last 9mm! I will post pics later.
I had been debating between the Shield and a Kahr CM9. The Kahr is smaller and more concealable but holds one less round. They both fit my hand well but the Shield has a few features I like better and I love my other S&Ws.
I should have picked one of these up when they came out at $400 but oh well. I am happy with and look forward to testing it out!
