M&P 9 Shield EZ PC Vs The Original...How Different Are They?
This video compares the Smith & Wesson M&P Shield EZ Performance Center and the standard Shield EZ. The Performance Center model features a ported barrel for reduced muzzle rise and felt recoil, fiber optic sights for improved visibility and one-handed manipulation, a skeletonized trigger with a lighter pull (averaging 5.5 lbs vs. 5.9 lbs), and anodized aluminum accents. The primary drawback identified for the Performance Center model is the sharp, serrated grip safety, which can be uncomfortable without gloves, unlike the smoother grip safety on the standard model. Both models are internally hammer-fired with a capacity of 8+1 rounds.
