Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Handguns Heavy loads in the 40 shield or G27

The saga of the performance center 40 shield got me to thinking about that gun as a backpacking gun. Anyone shoot any buffalo bore hard cast ammo out of the gun yet? I carry a 9mm g43 now a days but the 40 with a heavy bullet might be more in line with an outdoors hiking gun. I hate the G27 as it kills my second finger every time it fires, so the little Glock would it work for me.

No. But try a 23 or 22 mag with a mag adaptor..

I asked the same thing about the .45 Shield. No usable response. Might have to be the guinea pig test dummy.

right! I mean why not, I have a 9, 45 now I need a 40 shield. I might try to find a used one for 3 bills.
