M&P9 Shield 2.0 mods?

[TennBarber]

Hey guys, just got a M&P9 Shield 2.0 with manual safety. Was wondering what you guys suggest for some modifications that earnestly improve the handgun.

Have you shot it yet?  Is there something you don’t like about it?

Rather than mods, I’m the type of guy to recommend ammo and practice.

extra mags, a good holster and lots of range time, you have a great CC weapon as is.

Definitely check out AIM surplus for magazines. They have the 7 and 8 round mags for $16.95. Most other placers are $20 and up and $30 for the 7 round. I picked up a first gen recently and ordered a couple extra mags right away. Its a great little shooter and super easy to conceal!

8 round clips for the Shield have always been cheap.  Finding flush fit 7 round mags at a decent price has always been a challenge.

Generally I perform the Burwell DIY sear modification on my M&Ps.   Usually, that's all that's necessary to get the trigger to a point I can live with.

With today's pistols , I say keep them stock for them to run reliably . Use your money to buy ammo and practice .

Since the Shield is already a decent pistol especially for the price, I tend to agree with other on spending your money on ammo and practice time for the most part.   There is one mod I added to mine that I really like and it was the Samson mag well for the extended mags.    I posted about it here.    As mentioned, as long as you plan to use the extended mags, I think it's worthwhile in my opinion.    If you plan to run the flush mag sometimes, disregard.
