Hmm, I'm Glock guy but I have to admit, that is interesting.
I would wait a while just to be sure they work out any bugs etc., but it is certainly appealing.

interesting, very close in size to the 9mm and the same capacity.

very intersting indeed. I loved my shield .40 but didnt much care for the XDS 45. I wonder how this will handle. I really dislike this mismatched magazines however. I wish you got the option for 2 7 or 6 rounders.

Interesting indeed... but I think my first .45 should be a 1911 .

I'm curious to see your reaction. I have an XDS45 and love it, but haven't carried it in a while in favor of a G43.

I've been pleased and impressed with my Shield 40. and plan on buying one in 45. Same capacity, only slightly heavier and larger. I can live with the front slide serrations, even though I don't like them. Maybe it will even ride in my current holster!

I figured sooner are later S&W would come with a .45 in the Shield. I carry a Shield9 from their Performance Center and it will do me just fine. Some will want that .45 for sure.
