M&P Shield 2.0 9mm

[Michigander08]

This is the fourth pistol I own. For some reason, I kept having the skin on top at the second knuckle of the thumb rubbed off. The "beaver tail" part of the frame inflicts the damage.

I wonder if I hold the pistol in a wrong way or just the way the frame is built?

these cover some of the beavertail and distribute recoil. You spray the inside of the hogue grip with windex to get it on

Wow. Thank you! I didn't know there was such a thing.

I’ve shot around 500- rounds through mine. No problems like that. Do you have XL hands ? I wear a size L gloves. Does it happen with the extended 8 round or just the 7 rounder. I only ask that because i hate using the 7. I found myself trying to adjust my grip to compensate for shorter mag. Only use the 8- rounders now

I have small hands. It happened to both 7 and 8 rounder. I also have the M&P Compact 2.0 9mm. I have no problem with that one. So I'm very sure it is the Shield.

I have the compact - I was noticing a similar issue and thought I was pinching a nerve, but I’ve developed a callus in that spot. I also have smaller/skinny hands and use the standard medium backstrap. Just accepted that if I’m gripping it firmly enough to control recoil it’s gonna be a bit uncomfortable - it’s a gun, not a musical instrument. I prefer to not wear a glove on my shooting hand though I’ve tried it.

I have never had that problem. I love mine.
