Of the two (Nano and Shield), I'd pick the Shield - better trigger, better feel in the hand. As far as other alternatives mentioned here:

Walther PPS (my primary carry) - size of the Shield, long proven track record, more expensive on both initial gun and magazines. Worth saving for if price is the only thing preventing its purchase.
Ruger LC9 - good size, good feel, very reliable, long stiff trigger. The trigger does not preclude accuracy, but you have to practice with it more. I owned one, and sold it.
Sig Sauer P938 - A friend loves his; however, he cautions that it takes a break in period before he considers it reliable.
