You probably saw our our short video on the size (only) comparison between these two, and here is the full comparison that you wanted! Which one of these two 9mm offerings would you choose? Smith and Wesson M&P Shield M2.0 or the new Shield Plus (also called Shield+ or Shield + by some.)

Love my Shield Plus, it shoots great and the trigger breaks nice and crisp. This is a very accurate pistol for it's size. It is in my carry rotation now.

[@danielaramburo7648]

Hard decision. Both are excellent options. Go with the one you shoot better.

[@stephenbrink1079]

Thanks for this content. My first handgun I recently purchased was a Shield 1.0 which I loved, until.....the striker problem after 4 rounds. Chalk it up to being manufactured on a Friday. While back at S&W (4 weeks, not bad) , I put 300 rounds or so thru my buddies OG Shield and shot the hell out of it. Very accurate. Impatiently waiting, I bought the M&P Shield Plus and holy crap what a difference. Better grip texture, better capacity, better trigger. As a novice shooter, the difference was very clear. That said, I never shot or reviewed the Shield 2.0, so thank you for this comparison!

[@HammerStriker]

Thank you. The M2.0 (regular or plus) is a major improvement over the early 1.0s in the trigger.

[@bradhuskers]

​@@HammerStriker question I used to own the shield a few years ago, and even with the extended magazine, my pinky was not all the way on the grip. so my question is, on the new shield plus, it looks like the undercut is slightly more exaggerated, allowing for a full grip with the extended magazine. Since my hands are large, will my pinky be totally on the grip due to the undercut being a bit more exaggerated?

[@ashsherman]

No you arent. Of every piece i have stock, my favorite trigger. NOT A FAN OF STRAIGHT TRIGGERS

[@ashsherman]

It's so damn crisp and the reset is super crisp too. Compared to my springfield very 1st XD series they made like nearly 15 yrs ago before all the newer variants, WORST MOST SQISHY TRIGGER POS but i dont think the gun craze was as nuts. Now every single brand makes tactical match grade variants which put to shame the same models over 10 yrs ago. Like these new high capacity tiny ccw pieces (hellcat, M&P us, Sig, etc...)why did it take 50 years to figure that out?

[@L1berty1776]

Didnt feel the new plus trigger. But i have 0 issues with the 2.0. But the addition of 5 bullets is a huge difference and more comfort.

[@downeastjeff2024]

Thank you for the comparison between the 13 and 8 round mags. That is the selling point that helps me make my decision.

[@StreetArtist391]

Great video, it definitely helped me make my decision. I thought the only difference was the mag capacity, I didn't notice the trigger difference on the web. I definitely prefer the flat style over the hinge. I still might swap for an Apex like my .40c but this will work until after the holidays 😁.

[@brianrutherford3860]

I'm a little late seeing this but just wanted to say thanks for a good evaluation of these firearms. I've been on the fence about which one to buy and this video settled the matter for me!

[@iBlinkTVChannel]

Im viewing at the same time as you 🤙🏽 will be purchasing the Plus for a family member based off this video

[@janthomassen4175]

Besides the capacity advantage of the Plus the 2.0 is a better gun. It has a significantly better trigger, (shoot them back to back and then tell me I'm wrong!), It's way more responsive, faster and provides more feeback. The aggressive stipling on the 2.0 also puts it over the top of any super compact when it comes controlling recoil, it's never gonna slip no matter how gunky your hands are! The Plus is a great gun but the 2.0 is the tool that will always deliver. (Oh, BTW, I own both)

[@hks956]

I have all the shield models. I'm changing all my 2.0 triggers out so they can at least be as good or better than my plus. I dont see any world where the 2.0 is better than the Plus trigger. S&W is starting to put it on the top end 2.0 models now so I guess they agree too.

Hard to beat the Shield at $350 (and cheaper on the used market). If you're looking for a tiny gun for conceal carry, fhe Shield 2.0 will do the job with a proven track record. Personally, I'd rather spend the extra $200 on the Shield Plus. Sure the prices are pretty inflated at the moment, but the extra 3-5 rounds capacity and the trigger are worth it to me.

Just bought a plus. Actually like my 2.0 better. Safety on the plus is ridiculously stiff and so is the magazine. Flat faced trigger is nice- but no discernible reset. Trigger pull feels the same. 12 rounds is all I could stuff in the 13 round mag. And you have to force the mag in the gun for it to lock. The only thing I like about the plus is the slightly wider grip. In hindsight- I wish I had left it in the store.

I'm going to be the one to say it...Shield 1.0 I like the grip texture better, it does not eat into my tactical muffin top. We seem to have entered the realm of 2-round-itis. Similar to the boaters "2-foot-itis". If we accept a handgun that is just a little heavier, just a little bigger, we get two extra rounds. If I accept a handgun that is just a little bit heavier than that, just a little, I get another two rounds. (S&W M&P Sub compact) Bear in mind that the main reason for these competing micro compacts is to...sell guns. According to the background check data, that has been very successful. I have a S&W 3914 DAO (8+1) and a Shield 1.0 (8 +1) and a S&W Model 6904 (12+1) and a SIG P228 (13 +1) I haven't been tempted yet to by a gun that is just a little bit bigger, or smaller, for 10+1. I have carried a handgun for 48 years as a police officer and retired police officer. An additional 2 rounds is practical if you otherwise have a single shot pistol or a 2 shot pistol. Going from 1 or 2 rounds to 3 or 4 is a big difference. Going from a capacity of 9 to 11...for personal self defense...is of much more dubious value. That said...if I were new to the market and already had my "always be armed" handgun and was looking for an EDC, I would lean toward the Shield Plus.
