I have narrowed my search down to two guns and want y'alls opinions on which is a better weapon. Both fit me fine and I shoot them comfortably. Both are priced about the same, I just don't know much about pistol manufacturers and reputations and dependability.
Option 1: Smith and Wesson MP Shield 9mm
Option 2: Glock 43 9mm

S&W just because I love S&W's and own several.

Glock all the way, bombproof and point/shoot better under stress.
I've spent most of the money I've made in my lifetime on hunting and fishing. The rest I just wasted.....

If you’re a common sense person, you probably don’t feel you have a home in this world right now. If you’re a Christian, you know you were never meant to.

Glock 17 here. A little large and harder to conceal, but I trust my life with it-Literally. Nothing wrong with your choices but the 17 is my go to in times of need.
I can't stand a thief.

What says Aldeer? If you don't about Glock's reputation then you aren't qualified to carry one  I've got a shield and glocks, they have all been 100% reliable. But if I could only keep one, the S&W would be finding a new home. However- if the lack of a manual safety on the Glock scares you, then by all means pack the S&W.

I have shot and handled many pistols and have owned a S and W for years. This will be my first cc. I just don't have a bunch of pistols like lots of people here do, does one have jamming problems or a strange recoil that harms its reputation, that is what I meant by dependability and reputation. The s and W has a no manual safety model as well. I liked it better than the one with the safety

Between the two you listed, I'd go with the Glock (based soley on Glocks reputation).
Jesus... I hope you know Him personally like I do.

I'm a Glock guy but I know that there are other pistols just as dependable. That's the key. You want it to go BANG when you need it. I like the reputation of the Glock

If needed. At least it isn't a spray.
