Performance Center tuning and a manual safety are the two selling points of this Shield Plus. It is a law enforcement trade-in with a 3.1 inch barrel, a 13-round capacity and an Armornite finish, chambered in 9mm Luger. It weighs about 1.3 pounds.

The seller describes the Performance Center version as having fiber optic sights, a ported slide and barrel, and a tuned action for better consistency. The grip angle is 18 degrees for a natural point of aim, and the flat trigger gives consistent finger placement. The purchase includes two 13-round magazines, one 10-round magazine and a cleaning kit.

The thumb safety is a feature for shooters who want one on a carry gun. Some people prefer it for added peace of mind. If you do not, you can leave it off, but you will need to train with it as you would with any control.

A ported barrel reduces muzzle rise, though it adds more flash and noise. Check the photos for the finish. Trade-ins show holster wear. It is sold used and as described. It ships to your FFL dealer, and the background check is completed there.
