Will these sights fit a S&W 9mm Shield, and if so would there be any overhang on the rear sight?

No these won't. Ameriglo does make a shield specific model that I have on my shield, but you have to buy thru them.

No the shield requires its own sights. Go to ameriglo's site to get the correct part#

From what I read and what I physically see the sights will hang over the edge since the regular M&P; 9/9c are wider than the shield. I have seen people do it but you may have issues with it being snagged in clothing or holster.
1036597
No they are to wide. Need sights for shield. Go to ameriglow website to find model number.

Thanks for the quick reply. BTW, would you recommend the Ameriglo sights you purchased, or another manufacturer?

Yes, they do fit! I've just installed them on my 9mm Shield. The rear sight has a very slight overhang on the sides and towards the rear. I'm trying to post the pictures to the item.

I don't see why they would not work. As long as they are a set, then the height should be fine. When your rear sight has elevation adjustments is when you need a taller front sight.

I have a Smith and Wesson M&P; 40 and it fitawas great I don't know how different the shield is from the M&P; my best solution is is to call Smith and Wesson and ask themlol if it will fit your gun or if the M&P; and shield are the same type of design

All is the same except the width. Sights from 9mm and 40 M&Ps will fit the Shield but might be wider than normal but will still work. I have yet to find one that hangs over the edge of the slide.

I had an M&P; Compact not a Shield and I did like the sites but I had a gun smith install them. I believe the rear site was pinned.BTW: I only sold the M&P; because I compete with a Glock 17 and decided I liked the commonality of the Glock 17 mags with the G-19. Mike

The sight sits kinda high above your rail, so yes, you should be fine. Mine has a flat front gas book and so front sights would not be an issue for me. It may be visible if you have a raised front gas block, but should not obstruct your crosshairs.

Yes they will. I have them on my .40 cal. shield. They fit great. As Colleen said there is very slight overhang past the slide on the rear sight but it is very very slight and does not cause a problem.

Yes, as long as you select the 9mm/.40 from the drop down. Don't use the large frame sights on the smaller frame, they will install but the rear sight is a different height.

The sights will fit on all smith and Wesson M&P; pistols. Full size, compact, and sub compact. I have a smith and Wesson M&P; shield and they fit on that pistol as well (very tight fit though) the only Smith and Wesson m&p; pistols they won't fit on it the C.O.R.E series.

I have these on my Stag w/ acog scope, no issues with clearances, mount them a little more forward to clear your charging Handel if you are us with a ar platform

I have not had an issue with fit with any holster, either duty holster or off duty holster. All holsters I've come across have more than enough clearance for the small extra height in the sights

I had a set installed by my gunsmith on my S&W; Shield .40 caliber. Took him about 5-10 minutes and they fit just fine.

I have mine on an M&P15;, although not the sport model & it works fine with the front sights, it is high enough to see over it, now whether or not we have the same front sights I don't know, but I would think you'll be fine

That was going to be an issue too but the mounting holes not lining up stopped it for me at that point. If you go to the Hogue website it says they will fit but they did not on my handgun.

Yes, they will fit the Glock 35 and yes, the rear sight is adjustable for both windage and elevation.

I can not say for certain.These are on my S&W; 40c,compact.But i measured the slot where its sits.Its about 1in wide.So if the shield is about the same width,then they should fit fine.Hope this helps.

Mine for the S&W; Shield was closed. I have seen models for Glocks and 1911's with open bottoms.
