The Smith & Wesson M&P380 Shield EZ PC – Gold Edition is a refined, upgraded version of the industry-leading Shield EZ platform. Chambered in .380 ACP, it features a ported 3.83” barrel to reduce muzzle rise, a Performance Center-tuned trigger for a crisper pull, and striking gold accents on the barrel, trigger, and grip safety.
This pistol offers exceptional ease of use, thanks to S&W’s Easy Rack™ slide, easy-load magazines, and internal hammer-fired action. It’s an excellent choice for shooters with limited hand strength, new gun owners, or anyone wanting a premium-feel pistol without bulk or complicated controls.
Finished with lightning cuts on the slide, HI-VIZ Litewave H3™ tritium sights, and a distinctive look, it’s not just a showpiece—it’s a serious personal defense tool.
