S&W just released a new version of the Shield, the Shield X.
It's like a supersized version of the Shield Plus.
But it's more similar to the M&P 2.0 9 Compact.
The X is 0.07" longer, 0.1" shorter and 0.26" thinner, 3.7 oz. lighter.
Same barrel length and two fewer rounds with the flush magazine. It will be a different 13 round magazine from a Shield Plus because of the baseplate filler.
GURPS stats are very similar too!
Thinner and lighter seems to be what you get for your money. Might have to have Harvey see if it fits her, but the M&P 2.0 9 Compact IS our Goldilocks gun.
Smiff is getting as bad as Ruger in regards to releasing similar platforms with different and non compatible mags
