The Performance Center M2.0 tuning brings a hinged safety trigger with an audible and tactile reset, delivering a refined striker-fired feel tailored for the Shield’s slim, single-column design. The 4-inch long-slide configuration adds sight radius while keeping the micro footprint.
The optics-ready slide comes with a factory-mounted Crimson Trace CTS-1500 micro red dot featuring a 5 MOA red dot. It is paired with fiber-optic sights: a green front and a red two-rod rear for fast visual alignment. Performance Center wavy rear serrations offer enhanced slide traction.
Durability is anchored by a stainless steel slide and barrel treated with a black Armornite finish. The black polymer frame features the M2.0 aggressive grip texture for a secure hold. Approximate dimensions include a 7.0 in overall length, 5.125 in height, and a weight of about 21.8 oz.
This model is configured without an external manual thumb safety and retains the Shield’s easy-to-carry profile. It is identified as SKU/MFG Part Number 11797 and is made in the United States.
