The more I think, I'm leaning more towards original shield as I can conceal it better and can use as HD and range, all in one.
I can upgrade the grip and trigger for cheap if needed.
I will add a 22LR for practice if shield gives me hard time at the range.
M&P 2.0 is good but it's big. I can't conceal it except when wearing jacket.
Colorado is cold but only for few months.
We are already having over 70 degrees weather.
Even in winter, I can't wear jacket at work as there's air conditioning plus I work in front of computer all day so sitting with a big gun for hours will be uncomfortable.
It's a good gun and feels good in my hands but it'll be only HD gun.
A lot of guys here suggest to practice at range with the gun you carry so can't do that with the compact as I won't be carrying it.
Decisions... decisions...
