During the past 12 months I added a S&W Shield in 9 MM and a Glock M43 to the battery. I have a green CTC Laserguard on the S&W and a red Laserguard on the M43. Both are dead on at 40 feet.

Both guns shoot great. Never had a malfunction with either and get the same results on target. After putting 200+ rounds (probably more since I shoot three time a week) I decided to carry the Shield.

The reason is simple I can carry the S&W using the 8-round magazine in a pocket holster easily. Clearly the 2 extra rounds are the decider for me.

I do wish Glock would come out with an 8-shot magazine for the M43 since it would still be as easily carried in my pocket as the S&W with their 8-round magazine.

Note: The green laser is superior to the red one but close in after dark the red one is more than adequate.

Refreshing to see someone make a decision in so responsible a manner.

You have a question between two firearms.

You buy both, and give them each a test run.

Then you realize one is a better fit for you.

My compliments.
