M&P Shield Pre-order

[viet4lifeOC]

Anyone have news on the Turner's M&P Shield preorder?

I fully paid for the Shield, but was really hoping to see it in October, but today's the last day.

If it's not here, then can I get a full refund for a gun that's hasn't been delivered as advertise. I might just shell out to get the non-CA Shield if I can find one.

thanks

IIRC their policy says that you can get a full refund since you haven't DROS'd anything. Once you DROS they require a restocking fee.

Thank you.

I would prefer to buy it at Turner's, but would like an honest time of arrival so I could make a decision.

What does the 9mm come with? How many mags and what is capacity of each mag?

Thanks for answer and the link.

Also wondering if the thumb safety can be moved to the right side, and whether the mag release can be moved over to right side, for left-handed shooters?

Just spoke to a manager at Turner's Fountain Valley.

He said S&W will start producing the Shield in December and expect to receive the Shields in January 2013.

Argh

@keith and Arkin - my apologies, I was not talking about the shield... I had preordered another item and I'm in the same boat.

no and no.

I wanted to switch the mag release but the cutout is different on the right, so it can't be inserted that way... the safety is just a no go all together.

I suppose you could alter/modify/notch the mag release opening and try to make it work, but I wouldn't.

ikeo No problem, I've been looking for one and calling some other shops but none can get any so If someone knew of a place I was going to check them out.

Does anyone know if the pre-order is still open?

[Ricky-Ray]

I was at the Pasadena store on Sunday and the sign was still up saying taking pre orders.

I'm told Turner's wont' be getting these until June 2013...

LoL WTF?

Might as well start looking for those SSEs!

[ElDub1950]

Beginning to seem like it will be 2014 before we can expect to find them on the shelf for the general public. It will take more than 6 months for LGSs to fill backorders

I haven't checked ... are these readily available at most places to be SSEd? Or is there a long wait even for that?

We might as well start a rumor that Glock will have their single stack 9mm model available in 2013. If we spread the rumor enough, maybe Glock will do it
