Smith & Wesson Performance Center M & P SHIELD EZ .380 ACP Semi-automatic Pistol The SHIELD EZ is reliable, comfortable to shoot, and-above all-easy to operate, even for shooters with limited grip strength. While most pocket .380s are snappy and hard to control, the 380 SHIELD EZ is soft-shooting and easy to keep on target. Just as importantly, pulling back the slide is surprisingly easy-like working the slide on a rimfire pistol. More pronounced scalloping at the front and rear of the slide also helps you get a grip. The 380 SHIELD EZ comes with 2 easy-to-load 8-round magazines-a nice bonus for those who like to practice extensively with their CCW pistol. Putting a couple hundred rounds through it won't leave your fingers raw. Now, the outstanding personal-defense Pistol is better than ever thanks to a host of Performance Center upgrades. First and foremost, it features a ported barrel and slide to lighten recoil significantly, making it even easier to shoot. The Performance Center flat-faced aluminum trigger and tuned action combine to create a crisp, lightweight trigger pull with tactile and audible trigger reset. And last but not least, the Pistol comes outfitted with premium HI-VIZ Litewave H3 tritium sights for targeting in all light conditions. It all adds up to one of the softest-shooting and most user-friendly Pistols on the market.
