M&P SHIELD VS WALTHER PPS: BATTLE OF THE ULTRA SLIM 9MMs

About this video

Colion compares two slim, compact concealed-carry pistols: the Smith & Wesson M&P Shield and the Walther PPS. He evaluates both firearms across aesthetics, ergonomics, trigger quality, size, and value, ultimately expressing a preference for the M&P Shield based on its more organic feel, better ergonomics, and lower price point, while acknowledging that the PPS is a formidable option with a loyal following.

Key takeaways

• Colion finds the M&P Shield more visually appealing and ergonomically refined than the PPS, which he describes as having a basic, blocky, ‘Lego-like’ design
• According to Colion, the Shield’s trigger represents an improvement over older M&P models with a more pronounced reset, while the PPS trigger feels spongy with an inconsistent reset
• Colion notes that while both guns are similarly sized for carry, the PPS feels larger in-hand, and he would choose the Shield primarily due to its lower cost and more comfortable, organic grip feel
