    A friend put himself on waiting lists at two different stores. He grabbed the first one, and nearly a year later offered me the second when it came because he knew how much I coveted his. :D

    Is that the only base plate for a shield magazine? Do they make a flush plate magazine or pinky extensions like the compacts?

    Thats the extended pinky mag that comes with the gun. There is a flush base plate and the +1 round mag in the box from what I have seen and read.

    On a personal side note I went to Academy after work today to get one of those Shields and they were sold out. But I was told that the Company has ordered a group of the .40 version and the po was dated last week and they should be receiving them in the next couple weeks. My local store only got 3 of the 9mm in and sold them in the first couple days.
    Soooo having some funds and not being able to get what I wanted I filled the need by getting a Ruger Mark III and 1600 rounds of CCI Mini mags and a sling for my Mossberg and another Glock mag and .......yep thats it for this trip

    Yeah after asking the question I poked around on the other forums where there's 500 threads about the Shield. I finally found a pic of a flush fit mag...

    I wonder how long until we see a 45 version? I wouldn't mind a 40 version for that matter, but there's a full sized M&P in line before a shield on my want list.

    Wife's Kimber SOLO CDP arrived today: http://www.kimberamerica.com/solo/solo-carry/solo-cdp
    Ordered it in Feb for her birthday in March. She's known that I ordered it since a couple days before her birthday, but she doesn't know it's here now. It's in its case, next to her pillow, waiting for her to get home and discover it.

    Yes, that's correct. The gun fits it's job as a ccw, and it shoots okay, but has a gritty trigger and the break is not that clean. Overall it's a good buy however.

    If you are looking for a shield size gun in .45, check out SA and their XD-S. If SA comes out with a single stack XDM in either 9mm or .40, I would sell this shield in a minute.
