unload it, take a pencil or similar and push the follower down, see if it goes to the bottom like it is sposed to.
sometimes new mags have really tough springs, they need to be broken in so to speak.
if it came with 2 mags have you tried to load the other one?

Depending on capacity the 10th, 12th or 15th round should start to hurt. 4th should be easy

Get a Uplula mag loader. They work.
Yes they do work. Get you one of these and some spare mags. You will be so much happier.

Shotgun shells don't go in a pistol.... Might not be a bad idea to check to make sure you are loading the right cartridge.
Just one more cast!

Nice pistol. I bought it in 9 for my wife, but it is a fun gun to shoot. I got the one with the ported barrel, that sucker is loud lol

i had the same problem, work hard jam them in there, let them sit for about 2 weeks then take rounds in and out while watching tv. it will soften up big time. mine was so hard it was denting the casings on rounds below the one i was trying to put in. But it will losen up jsut carry it around for a while and dont unload it for a few weeks it will soften up 50% for sure.

It's less rounds but also less weight and very slim profile since it's a single stack. It's been a good gun to carry around. For home defense or in the car I like something with more capacity because weight doesn't really matter. It would be interesting to me to see a statistic showing the avg number of rounds fired during a self defense situation in public.

My CM9 holds 6+1 about the same size as a Shield. I'm comfortable with that many but I keep a spare mag handy just to feel good. That little mag sits just fine in my pocket so that gives me 13 total. I doubt I'd ever fire more than 3. But if i did have to fire it, 3 is probably the exact number I'd let loose.
