Smith & Wesson M&P Shield X, 9mm, 3.6", 15+1, Black, RMSc/K Optic Cut, Pistol

Smith & Wesson M&P Shield X, 9mm, 3.6", 15+1, Black, RMSc/K Optic Cut, Pistol

The Smith & Wesson M&P Shield X with no thumb safety pairs a 3.6-inch barrel with an RMSc/K optic cut and a slim textured grip. One 13-round and one 15-round magazine are included, offering two grip and capacity configurations within a compact, optics-ready 9mm platform.

This black configuration has a 3.6-inch barrel and 15+1 capacity. The polymer frame and striker-fired semi-automatic action establish the platform. The finish and supplied magazine configuration distinguish it from neighboring models in the same family.

Shop the Smith & Wesson M&P Shield X at BattleHawk Armory. Compare the features below and choose the configuration that fits your shooting preferences.

3.6-inch stainless barrel

The 3.6-inch stainless barrel uses a 1:10 twist, Armornite treatment and a target crown. The stainless slide also receives Armornite treatment. This is the standard Shield X barrel configuration, distinct from the ported Carry Comp model in the same family.

RMSc/K optic interface and ClearSight cut

The flat-plane RMSc/K optic cut provides a defined mounting interface for compatible compact red dots. The ClearSight cut is designed to direct gas away from the optic area. Check the exact optic dimensions, mounting screws and installation requirements; the named footprint is a fitment boundary rather than universal compatibility.

Slim grip and reversible magazine catch

Updated texture panels on the black polymer frame provide contact surfaces at the front and rear of the grip. The longer Shield X grip accommodates the supplied magazines, while the reversible magazine catch supports a preferred control side. The flat-face trigger retains a consistent finger contact surface.

Night sight, frame rail and controls

An Ameriglo Trooper LumiGreen front night sight pairs with a blacked-out serrated rear sight. The frame has a front rail for a compatible accessory. This configuration has no manual thumb safety, a detail that distinguishes it from otherwise similar Shield X variants.

Two magazines with different grip profiles

One 13-round and one 15-round magazine are included, supporting 13+1 or 15+1 capacity. The extended magazine changes the lower grip profile, so consider both magazine choices when evaluating concealment and hand fit. Additional magazines must be compatible with the Shield X configuration.
