Welcome as well.
One of the others has great prices on the shield as well. Hard to beat $349.

Don't be shy!

I too struggled with that. Got a Shield 9, didn't work for me. Just picked up an XDS 9 only because I like the format and used to have the XDS 45.

Be sure to check out the classifieds. Some good deals from the FFLs on here, just be sure to ask if they don't have what you want.

Thank y'all for warm welcome. I went and shot Glock 26 / XDs / Shield / PPS / CM9..ended up with PPS. It was a tough call, Shield was a great value but PPS is somehow more accurate in my hand.

And THAT is what matters. Good choice.

yup. rounds on target (and actually being carried) are all that really matter.
