I'm pleasantly surprised at how soft it shoots... the dual spring flatwire unit really calms it down. My only complaint is the trigger. It's pretty mushy and long. (although that may be how all shields are) Unfortunately Apex has nothing for the updated .45 shield yet, they hope by year end. I'll keep putting rounds downrange- hopefully it gets better with some use. If not, maybe I get used to it or I'll get a new trigger when available.
:iagree: The trigger is the only thing I would change on mine. I love the pistol and I love the fact it fits in a couple of my DM Bullard Holsters I already had.

Re: Shield owners- help!

I do not have the performance .45, but I do have 1.0 in .45. Mine is a delight to shoot. It is surprisingly low recoil in that small of a frame. Comparing it to the 9mm it is of course more recoil, but very manageable.
