  • Trying out the shield plus from Smith and Wesson for the very 1st time.
    These things are a bargain in my opinion.

    Arguably the best micro pistol on the market, it’s definitely top 5

      Not too shabby especially for the price..... it shoots great and is pretty light and has plenty of magazine capacity..... thanks for checking it out.

    It seems like if you buy a carry gun now, you should be good because most of them run. My friend has a Glock 43X MOS. I have a Sig P365X. My other buddy has a Taurus G3C. I've yet to see a malfunction in any of the guns when we go to the range.

      I've done two reviews on Taurus handguns.... and I have not bought anymore of them....lol. I will stick with glock, s&w... or perhaps sig or canik....... walther makes a great firearm also. Thanks for stopping by and checking it out.

      You should always make sure your carry guns run. I’ve seen glocks malfunction right out of the box.

      Glad you found something that suits your needs. A small safety such as the one found on a shield is a fine motor skill and when in high stress environments such as a shooting or self defense moment, fine motor skills often go out the window. Thanks for checking out the video.

    • @AverageGIJoeOutdoors
      @AverageGIJoeOutdoors  Před měsícem

      hard to beat a glock 19 if you have the right type of body to conceal one well...... if you need smaller I would go with the 43x....... I am tall and skinny and can conceal a pretty decent size firearm..... I rock a G45...lol. If I need something smaller I carry my Masada Slim sometimes. Thanks for stopping by

    They might as well market this as a 12 + 1 capacity. With one already in the tube the 13 fully loaded mag won't lock in. Have to take one out making it 12 + 1😢

      I don't believe I had this issue with this particular pistol..... I might have to go back and check my video when I edited it.... but I'm pretty sure I had no trouble getting 13 rds in the mag that came with this one. Thanks for checking out the video. Hope to have a video versus the IWI masada slim vs. the Shield plus. Should be a great video. Thanks for checking it out.

      ah.... she knows it's a dang fine pistol.... even under 400 bucks... I would carry it..... that's all that matters..... I mean she was looking at a $750 dollar SIG...... but being a farm girl, she knows the value of a dollar and not everything expensive is always what it's cracked up to be...... the shield plus is a great ladies companion.

      the 365 macro comp still has sig stamped on the side of it...... lol. I've not been impressed with any sig product in the last 15 years...... and they have all had issues...... I would say for the money it is hard to beat the SW shield plus..... and the thing shoots great, feels good, and has been %100 reliable. Thanks for checking out the video.

      I say 365 is best due to mag capacity. My mp 2.0 performance is the one I carry the most due to the slimmer single stack( older model). I don’t own a Glock 43x. It was a hard decision when I bought my 365. I wanted a Glock, but guntubers on CZcams influenced me. I say, I probably been happy with both, but it have a Glock 21 and didn’t have an sig.
