A couple friends came over this morning to do some target shooting. One had the XDs in .45ACP which I already knew I liked, but the other had the Shield. I have handled one before and heard a lot of good about it, but have never shot one. I really like this pistol. For me the recoil was not a problem. Slightly more than my CM9, but not bad at all. Very accurate, slightly better than the CM9. Reliability great on both pistols. I will not be switching to the Shield. But this is a great pistol, and a very good option for those that want a small 9mm, but don't care for the Kahr for whatever reason.
