Would the real Slim Shady please stand up?
Two of the most popular carry guns from two of the most well know manufacturers; the Shield and G43 set the standard for ultra concealable single stacks. Weighing in at 18.03 and 17.95 ounces respectively, the Shield and G43 are perfect for those looking to keep their EDC as lightweight as possible. But what sets these two pistols apart?
Introduced in 2012, the Shield took the concealed carry community by storm. Right out of the gate, the M&P Shield was offered in 9mm and .40 caliber, giving gun owners the chance to own a great little gun in something other than .380. Not too long after, the Shield also branched out into a .45 ACP offering. With little competition, the Shield quickly became one of the most popular carry guns.
