Smith & Wesson M&P 9 Shield

 Smith & Wesson put the power and features of their full-sized M&P line into a slim, lightweight striker-fired pistol that you may just find ideal for everyday carry, the Shield. This is an "easy to conceal" pistol that offers professional grade features, simple operation, and proven, reliable performance. Weighing in at only a bit over 20 ounces (empty), and not quite one inch wide, the Shield is the first-choice for over one million savvy gun owners. Each Shield 9 comes standard with two magazines; one 7-round flush-mount, and an extended 8-round. The frame is matte-black polymer, and the slide is Armornite-coated stainless steel.  This particular model comes with a manual thumb safety. Legendary Smith & Wesson quality, at a price point often associated with "budget" guns, the Shield is the personal defense option you've been looking for. *Also available in 380 ACP, 40 SW, and 45 ACP, there's a Shield for every need, and every shooter. Specifications: Weight: 19 oz. # of Mags: 2 Overall Length: 6.1"
