Last weekend I picked up an M&P 9mm full size with the VTAC sights. That model also seems to include an upgraded trigger/sear package. Will never warm up to the flat dark earth finish but the sights and better internals are quite nice.

Got it low miles used from a new friend at a very good price. It shoots lights out dead on. The enhanced trigger pull accounts for a lot of that.

Awesome Brian.

I picked up the shield last Tuesday and haven't really had a chance to shoot it til now. I just had time to shoot a couple mags, but I gotta say that the recoil on the .40 Shield wasn't as much as I expected after reading about it in various places. It is well manageable, will take a little getting used to since I am using the 6 round mags since concealability as a BUG is what I got it for. I am used to shooting my S&W E Series 1911 45 for the last several years and haven't had a short gripped gun in a while. I don't think it will be a problem though as the gun feels like it was made for my hand even with the flush fit mags.

Anyone have any new stuff in the hopper or in their sites?

Looking at getting one of the limited run Colt nineteen-03 general officer models 32acp they redid and a regular old m1911a1 made by the same company.
