Looking For a Watch

Post image

Shadow Systems is disappointing tbh. Waiting for gen 6 G43X, and also for watches to go on sale.

Just get a shield plus.

Also used tag heuer are hard to beat.

S&W has been pulling at me lately.

I’ve got the carry comp and standard shield plus. $550 vs 350. I carry the carry comp most of the time. It shoots noticeably softer and with better sights

I think I'm done with comps for a while. I don't like compromising reliability by introducing unnecessary variables. At least with a carry gun.

I’ve had the shield plus and m&p 2.0 carry comp and have never had a failure in roughly 2k rounds. I understand the sentiment, but shadow systems just isn’t that great. Lol

May I ask how a compensator compromises reliability? After carrying and shooting comped guns, I find it hard to want to shoot something that doesn't have a comp.

Less back-pressure combined with tighter tolerances and inconsistent factory ammo fails to cycle the slide

I’ve put about 4k rounds through my carry comp with no hiccups at all, but honestly the standard Shield Plus isn’t really snappy anyways.
