    New Shield EZ in 9mm

    If you haven’t read Jeremy’s excellent review of the original Smith & Wesson M&P Shield EZ pistol, you should. It’s an awfully good .380 ACP carry gun that’s easy to rack and geared for the new carrier and those with limited hand strength. It’s a very good choice if a first concealed carry pistol. Now ...

    I saw it. I would like to own one. Screw Ca screwy gun laws that criminals care nothing about. Well they do care. More laws mean a better chance you can't defend yourself.

        What’s the difference from the regular shield? RSA?

          Grip safety, Slide is easier to pull back (plus has tabs/ledge to help), magazine has tabs to make loading easier, single action.

              I bought the 380 EZ for my wife to use as a range gun but she still prefers her Bersa Thunder 380. The only difference, as far as easy, is the Shield's slide pull is one pound lighter than the Bersa, and the mags have the quick load feature which really isn't necessary with most 380s. Bersa has a much better trigger and is twice as accurate as the Shield at any distance. The other issue with her Shield is that it likes to eject live rounds periodically. If the 9EZ is anything like it's little brother, I'll pass.

                  Stupid fat fingers. The grip safety does not interfere with usage and is extremely easy to depress

                    The shield EZ 380 has ton of issues and they havent figured out a way to fix it yet. I’d wait at least a year or two for the shield ez 9mm
                    Any gun owner who does not support the NRA is a freeloader.

                      The 380 EZ was more in size line with the G19 sized pistol, not the Shield even though Shield is in the name. I shot a 380 EZ about a year and a half ago when looking for a pistol for my better half, and was not that impressed with it although I did not have any issues (weak ejection, but that could have been the ammo). It looks like the 9mm is the same size.

                      I'm glad to see more options tailored to smaller/weaker individuals in the pistol market.

                      If you are looking for a smaller than this, easy to operate slide in 9mm, consider a XDe (what she chose)...
