Shield +1 installed on a 7-round magazine. “Tail hold” modification visible on the loose part.<\/p><\/div>\n

We’re shipping Shield +1’s in black<\/a> and brushed aluminum<\/a>\u00a0now. We expect red ones in about 10 days (thanks to a mix-up at our anodizing firm). They should be just the ticket for those of\u00a0you with red-colored Apex triggers and the like.<\/p>\n

NEW OPTION: As we were sending\u00a0the Shields\u00a0out to be anodized, some of our product testers asked us to do something about the sliding the collar on the 8-round magazine (which slides up the mag tube, making reloads awkward). To anchor the collar, we drilled a little hole in the tail of the extension. Just enough for a little screw.<\/p>\n

\"shield<\/a>

Available in brushed aluminum or black, you can order our Shield +1’s individually, or as a “mag pack” of two: one has\u00a0a “tail hold” for the 8-round mag, one doesn’t.<\/p><\/div>\n

You’ll need to drill a tiny 1\/16th hole in the collar, but that’s easily done. (Use\u00a0the extension as a drill guide.) If you’d like to have\u00a0a\u00a0“tail hold” on your Shield, just\u00a0ask for that when you order.<\/p>\n

Dealer inquiries welcome!<\/p>\n

Detail:<\/strong> The S&W Shield dominates the concealed-carry market in the West. Shield drivers have been asking us to create an extension that not only adds capacity, but makes the stubby grip on the Shield work for people with large hands.<\/p>\n

Jack Faubion at Radian Design and TF\u2019s Robin Taylor went through THIRTEEN distinct prototypes, creating a totally new retention system (patent paperwork in process). The Shield\u2019s close-fitting frame has flummoxed extension designers until now, but our new system\u00a0locks the extension into place with a combination of spring tension and solid steel.<\/p>\n

First two Shield +1’s off the mill.<\/p><\/div>\n

Turn your\u00a08+1 magazine into a 9+1 \u2013 or extend the too-short 7+1 magazine into a serviceable\u00a08+1 that feels BETTER<\/em> than the factory 8+1.<\/p>\n

Whether you\u2019re looking for a little more capacity, or a little more grip to work with, our testers tell us the Taylor Freelance Shield Extension<\/a> \u201cmakes\u201d the gun.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
