So, for everyday CCW, I have my go-to 19. There are times, though, that a slimmer and lighter frame would be nice to have. I currently have a backup for those occasions in the P11. Granted, it isn't THAT much slimmer, but on a small guy like me, there's a notable difference in ability to conceal. The things I love about the P11 are the 10+1, DOA trigger (pseudo safety in my opinion), sights, and its size compared to the 19. What I hate, as does pretty much everyone, is the actual trigger pull as it's looooong and heavy, not great for accuracy and follow up shots in stressful situations. With that in mind, the shield has caught my attention as it's relatively the same size and I've heard good things about it. Granted, I would give up 3-4 rounds and have a striker fired gun (but it has an actual safety), but it appears to be slightly slimmer and has, from what I've read, a MUCH better trigger. So, would anyone like to offer some comparisons of the two? I know there are mods for the P11 to the trigger, but with no safety, I'd rather not mess with it. I'm wondering if it's worth it for the added expense and to give up a few rounds and retire the P11. Thoughts and opinions?
Better yet, anyone have a shield they'd like to meet me at the range with??
