I saw you mentioned a compact .45 as well. I've had this one since 1985 and it has never had a FTF. Recoil is less than most full-size 1911's and accuracy is a pop can from a rest at 50 yards if I do my part and the planets are aligned  ;)

Besides - it was made in Seattle!

Another vote for the shield also. I converted from glocks to the M&P series. Started with the 9fs, then the fs.22 and then the 9c. Recently picked up the shield and wish I would have bought it before the 9c. But hey, I've got the whole set. Just need the C.O.R.E. now. Lol.

someone mentioned the LC9.. see if you can find the new "lc9-s" i think it is called, has a striker trigger system, much better trigger.. I have shot the shield, nice gun , I have a Kahr, but is the original all steel K9.. several very good options, just find what fits you..

Sometime after the 1st of the year I plan on buying some kind of sub compact 9mm. I'm currently leaning toward the smith and Wesson shield. Thoughts? Alternatives? I also like the kahr but they cost a bit more. My other thought is a sub compact 1911, thoughts?

Awesome choice. Also take a look at the Glock 26's. little fatter but you may like it. As far as 1911's while I love shooting them, they are heavy to carry and the small ones TEND to be finicky. some are more reliable than others. but the shield already has a great rep and is lighter so that would be my pick.

I've never owned a Sig, but bought one last month. It's a 9mm P250 COMPACT with Sig Night Sights, 15+1 for $397 to my door.
I couldn't care less about what anybody says..............
