S&W M&P Shield.....and M&P 45c - It was a good week :)

You are aware that the Shield is competing directly with these pocket guns:

1. Beretta Nano
2. Ruger LC9
3. Springfield Armory XDs

I dont see where any of those guns are being advertised as pocket guns by the manufacturers.

http://www.xdspistol.com/ This isnt even released yet either.


The point is that people keep criticizing the mfg and the gun for an attribute that was never promoted by the mfg.

Quiet unfair.

huh... got me there.

I even did a ctrl+f for 'poc' to find anything that started with that. Dang Microsoft failed me again. Must reboot... that seems to be the default fix for all things microsoft



Ok... bashing Berretta is fair game for that provided that at least some reasonable amount of effort is put into having decent size pockets.

Speedo pockets dont count.

No problem, we all make mistakes. The Beretta Nano is a loser, just head over to the Beretta Forum to see what kind of crap they turned out. I'll admit that the Shield seems to be working well out of the box, and that's really something these days.
