Got a little crazy today. Had an extra Shield Plus trigger shoe laying around and wanted to see what it would be like in the compact. I know that the shield series and full size guns are pretty similar in design but I never thought it would work as well as it does. Note, I would never fire the gun like this and this was just a fun experiment but it does, in fact, function quite well - with the glaring exception of the trigger safety not fully engaging the frame. However, this makes me even more upset with Smith by not simply designing an identical trigger to the Shield plus for the full size guns instead of their new flat trigger they put in the full size guns.
