Finally got my shield 45 out to the range, ran it side by side with the 9mm.
I found the trigger on the 45 to be heavier or more accurately stiffer (might loosen some over time )
Shoots just as good as the 9mm with just a hair more recoil, after 50rounds the aggressive grip texture will certainly rub your palm raw. Will need some more work to nail down the site picture but I'll do that after I add night sights
Fed everything flawlessly tested hornandy and federal hst
As said before, the springs are really stiff out of the box.

Re: Time for a Shield!
Only one of my shield 9 holsters seem to fit the 45 but thankfully I can just order a new shell from comptac and if the Internet is correct (it's on the internet so it's true right?) the sights are the same for the 9/40/45

Re: Time for a Shield!
time for me to finally get the .45 if i can find a deal without the safety
had the 9 since they first came out and its been my primary carry ever since, so soft shooting for the size.
