Could this be the gun to replace my Shield? (Mossberg MC1) threads merged

I think it looks neat, I’d like to shoot one. That said, here’s some critical commentary from P-F that had me lul’ing
“If ever there were companies with their fingers on the pulse of what El Fudd and Joe Derp want in guns, it's Mossberg and Taurus. I sold more pistol grip 12-gauges than I thought humanely possible. The POS Mossberg 4x4 combo with scope was a top seller. I couldn't keep 500s and Maverick 88s on the shelves in 2008 and the .22LR AR clones? Gone before we got them off the pallets basically.
In other words, I'm inclined to agree. Mossberg either got it all right or all wrong, only time will tell. And people like stupid **** like cross-bolt safeties because, "it works like my shotgun".

“Interesting fly-on-the-wall experience yesterday at the Rural King gun counter. There were three guys asking about the Mossberg because 1) they don’t like Glocks and 2) they won’t buy S&W because they sold out the gun owners back in the day. Sample of three, but if Mossberg can tap into the disaffected bubba market they may find success.”

“I'm immersed in the Rural King/Farm-Fleet demographic by location and profession. My initial instinct is to say that if Mossberg gives out a free cap or jacket with each pistol and Glock doesn't match or exceed such swag, Mossberg will sell a lot of pistols.
The pistols won't get used very often, but that won't be a bad thing.”

They will be 125 bucks in 6 months. Mossberg isn’t going to compete with S&W, Glock, and even Taurus in the market.
Ruger can’t even get a solid hold in that market.

I don't know if they will be $125, but I don't think they will be serious contenders either. Undoubtedly some people will buy them and there is some share of the market for them, for a budget price. I definitely agree there.
I find it a bit odd that Ruger isn't a more serious option as a semi auto. I have no experience with their single stack pistols, other than the LCP, but I actually like the SR series. Apples to oranges, though...

That right there is why it will sell.. I would think the street price will just undercut the S&W and every review that I've seen so far says the trigger feels better...
If the performance and reliability are good, and the price is right (I mean VERY right), I'd be interested. Looks like it would make a good truck gun.
