I'm very accurate with it within 25-30 yards, and my wife can shoot it. I paid $400 from a local gun shop. I would suggest going to a place like that. It doesn't have all the fancy safeties and things like that, but it gets the job done. I use it for the same reasons you want. Has two clips, holds 12 and 17 rounds. The 17 rounder lengthens the base so it fits in your hand. As far as the safeties go, combined with keeping it your person (for fear of pulling a Cheddar Bob), that's not an issue for me, because I'm not going to chamber a round until after I pull the pistol. And let's face it, if someone blitzkriegs you, you can't pull the gun in time anyway.
Springfield is the best gun on the market IMO. I shoot a good bit (most with shotguns and rifles), but I didn't know much about handguns until a year ago when I bought this.
ETA: That Shield 9MM sounds very similar.
Thanks Goat. My Father in law has that same Springfield you have, and seems to like it a lot. That's good info
