BudsGunShop.com - ease of racking the slide

    in Hand Gun
  • How stiff or difficult is it to rack the slide on this gun? I have very arthritic hands, my off hand is pretty weak. I have a Springfield XD-E which uses a "low effort" slide, for just this reason. I tried the original M&P Shield a while back and thought the slide was stiffer than average. How would you rate the Shield 2.0?

  • James - the 2.0 is virtually the same as the original version. You might look into the Springfield Shield 380 EX - specifically made to be easy to operate. They get great reviews. budsgunshop.com/catalog/product_info.php/products_id/101525/smith+%26+wesson+m%26p+shield+380+ez+8%2b1

  • James, the Shield M2.0 is marginally easier than the earlier Shield. To make sure you don;t purchase this and then have problems, I would go to a local gun shop and try it first hand so there re no surprises. Slide racking is subjective and the ease of rack will undoubtedly be different for different folks.
