**Wasn't sure where to post this sorry**

Searching the web this evening and I found the Shield in 9mm and 40 for $429! Most classifieds that I have seen are people trying to sell used Shields for $500+....

9mm

40

I did not calculate shipping but seems like a decent deal!

Tanners sells them for $399, as long as you're willing to order it & wait

Where is that and how long do you have to wait?

It's in Jamison in Bucks Co., I guess that's a little far for you though, but i figured the info might be good for people in my neck of the woods looking for one. The downside is of course the wait, it took about 3 months for mine, although I was told the wait should start to shorten up some

I have the patience & besides, given the lack of availability it didn't really matter, no one else had one either & some dealers were taking advantage of that fact by jacking up the price
