Actually, it depends... although both versions of "kite shield" have exactly the same name, they don't have the same ac. Storebought (out of a merchant's permanent inventory) or mob dropped kite shields have 8 ac, but player-smithed kite shields have 9 ac. I believe this is the case with most, if not all, of the shields you smith that have an identically named version sold in merchants' permanent inventories; player-smithed ones have an extra ac over the storebought version (I know this is at least true for the kite shield and round shield.)
