Bodyguard - staple gun
Shield - pneumatic nail gun shooting framing nails

One for the pocket. One for inside your waistband.
The Shield is much easier to shoot. You'll find that out quickly.

I am with everyone else. The bodyguard is a No Go and the Shield is a go.
I carry my shield in my pocket.

I cross-shopped those two also and bought the Shield. The Bodyguard is just no fun to shoot. The trigger pull is terrible. Total opposite with the Shield. I can go through 100 rounds at the range with no problem. Admittedly, I don't carry mine so the difference in size may be a bigger factor for you.

get ready for all the M&P kids to show the "correct" direction

There really is no comparison between the two as they're different guns: Shield is a 9mm (one of the best self defense rounds) gun that's best suited for belt carry, but may fit in some pocekts; Bodyguard is a 380 (VERY MINIMUM of self defense rounds) that's made for pocket carry. Which one you should get depends on what your needs are. Only you know......what do YOU need?

I also found that the Shield points 1000x better for me and the travel on the bodyguard trigger is disgusting. Night and day IMHO
My dad carried a bodyguard for a few years and I let him borrow a Shield. He sold the bodyguard the next week and bought a Shield
