I'm contemplating a 9mm Shield, so I borrowed a buddies. I could not get used to the trigger - it's got so much take up before it fires! When did S&W make the trigger changes?
The two shields I have were made in Set 2014 and Mar 2015. Both had significant take up. That is why I put the Apex trigger kits in. Don't get me wrong both were perfectly shootable with the standard triggers. But I like a better trigger in my handguns, especially if I plan to carry them.
