Anyone know if there is a good one that works with the SHIELD out yet?

I'm itching to get one and would like to be able to do the work myself, and due to the thinner slide I'm guessing theres no chance of my MGW working for it.

It does not work because the frame rails are different widths.

Ok. hopefully they are like the newer MP's in that the sights are not as tight as the older models.

Sorry to disappoint...lol.

The dovetails are beyond tight.
