Good review. I have noticed WWB ammo seems to have harder primers than it used to. I am getting a couple failures to fire with good primer strikes out of every box. I never used to have this issue. I am noticing this in more than one gun. I might trade in the bodyguard .380 and get a shield.

x3 on primer problems with the WWB ammo...

I've been wanting to get a shield for a while now and finally found one today at a LGS but they were asking a little too much for it.

What did they want for it?

I wanna say $460 something....

Not all that bad. I paid $449 + tax for mine at Jackson's. That's my second handgun there and Kordell has been great both times.
I know that Beikirch's was selling for $409 + tax for the first batch they had, but I'm not sure if that is still the retail price.

$449 is S&W's retail on the gun and i would have bought it for that.... Just did not want it bad enough to pay over retail for it even though it was only $10-$20 more...
I bought a handgun from Jacksons for the first time a couple weeks ago and it was overall a great experience!
