S&W MP Shield vs. Ruger SR9c
Posted on 1/11/13 at 1:47 pm

Assuming I can find one of these for a good price(not much luck lately), which one would the OB choose?
I really like the size of both of them. The Ruger weighs a bit more, but also comes with a 17rd extended mag. I'm sure both would be good guns for what i'm looking for, but main goal is a good/great trigger, short and smooth. Anyone of you shot both and compared?

I'm not well schooled in triggers, but I like the trigger on my M&P better than one on the lc9. I bought the m&p because it felt better in my hand and IMO has a better trigger. I'm scared to go practice more with it because I do t want to run out of ammo.

Shield but good luck finding one. The M&P9c isnt much bigger than the Shield, easier to find, and probably more comparable to the SR9c in size.

I've been looking for a Shield for several weeks now with no luck. It's probably best to let all the madness cool down before you buy. There are a bunch on gunbroker, but I'm not paying $600+ for a $400 gun.

The lc9 and SR9c are nowhere close to the same trigger. Never shot the shield but the SR9c trigger is good.

Msrp is like $425 range if I recall.

I really like the shield. It's very easy to shoot well for being such a small gun.
I don't remember ever shooting an SR9c

Shield says $399 on Academy's website. quite the deal.

The MP9C is on sale for 519.99. Why the big price jump i wonder?

Lemme know when you want to shoot one. I'm putting together some steel plates to shoot.
That is if I can find enough ammo to make it worth the effort.

Where did you buy yours? Can a place like Jim's order one for me?

I have a Shield and have shot the LC9. I prefer the Shield, but liked the LC9 as well. For my preference, I personally liked the Shield trigger.
I had my name on the list at a couple of places, but just happened to run by Hebert's on my lunch and they had one in stock. Bought it without hesitation.

I had Jim's order mine. I went in the Monday after Thanksgiving and ordered it. It came in December 26th. You have to put a 20% deposit down. I think it was $467 OTD. About a 4 week turn around. They have been getting 5-6 a month.
