The Smith & Wesson Performance Center M&P9 Shield X Carry Comp in 9mm (Smith & Wesson part no. 14271) adds the PowerPort compensator to the slim Shield X platform. The ported barrel and slide drive gas upward to reduce felt recoil, and the ClearSight cut keeps it away from a mounted optic. This 10-round version has a 3.6-inch barrel, a manual thumb safety and an RMSc/K optic cut. An Ameriglo Trooper LumiGreen front night sight sits over a blacked-out rear. It is built for carriers who want a flatter-shooting concealable pistol.
