    Most of the off the shelf factory ammo is, but that's why I roll my own.

      Congrats! I am a big fan of the M&P although I only have the full size versions.

      If you ever want to upgrade the trigger on your shield, apex tactical is a good source.

          I love my Shield 40. Put over 200 rounds thru it fresh out of the box of several different brands of FMJ and JHP and didn't have one issue...its a great shooter and conceals quite easily.

              10mm is what's making me think about reloading...lol.

              Congrats on the purchase, OP.

                .40 is an awesome round- not a big fan of it in small guns though.

                  Thanks fellas, so far I've put 200 rounds through it and no issues.

                  I don't think I'll be messing with the trigger any since it will be my concealed carry weapon, from what I understand it's not a good idea to modify your carry weapon just in case if the time comes where you have to use it you don't want to look like a man hunting psycho madman looking for trouble. I can see the headlines already, "man kills innocent gang member with a highly modified assault rifle"

                        Elvis is just upset the M&P doesn't come in hot pink like the Glocks do.

                            It doesn't have the same appeal for Elvis as this does.

                              That's complete nonsense. I haven't seen one case in which that mattered. If it's a good shoot, it's a good shoot.

                                In all your years of studying case law?

                                So now that we have the expert opinion, this is settled!

                                It does sound like quite a stretch though.
