Just announced at the NRA Annual Meeting from Smith and Wesson, the M&P Shield in 45ACP! For all of the S&W M&P Shield fans out there, here is one to add to the collection! We’ve been waiting for quite some time for this bad boy to hit the market, but with the success of the Springfield XD-S 45, it was only a matter of time! Here are some of the specs:

-Capacity – 7+1 and 6+1
-Barrel Length – 3.3″
-Overall Length – 6.45″
-Sights – Steel white dot
-Weight – 20.5 oz
-Finish – Black
The M&P Shield 45 ACP MSRP is looking like $479. Street value should be around $400-$430, which will put it in line with the XD-S and close to the other M&P Shields out on the market now.

Stay tuned for more details as they come available

I was born and raised in NC and I have grown up around firearms with shooting BB guns at the age of around 3-4. I serve my county as a Paramedic and work part-time at my local gun shop. I have been writing for Epic Tactical since May 2016 and have been doing firearm reviews on YouTube for about the same amount of time. My enthusiasm is geared towards the medical side, yet I am always there to help out new shooters find that perfect gun and work on their technique. My wife usually accompanies me to the gun range and she is always there to help female shooters with their techniques and to answer questions.
