i admit i am a newbie and havent fired a whole lot of weapons, but i like mine. easy to clean, easy to shoot and eats every type of ammo i have put in her without a single FTF,FTE, etc.
i dont know if it could win a sharpshooting contest, but i can put every round in the bad guy's chest. i got mine for $300...but for what i see them going for now though, i would probably get something else. |

Its the best value in a semi-auto available today.
I used to shoot IDPA with a guy who use one only because loved to beat guys with expensive guns. The older ones are essentially glock copies. With all the benefits and flaws of a glock. With a bit lower quality, but better ergonomics. The later ones have a longer trigger reset, but are more reliable. Either way, with street prices for 17 rd 9mm sigmas in the $300 range, they are a heck of a value. Dont forget also that you have that lifetime S&W service program backing you up. Don |

It is an acceptable weapon in 9mm.
The 40 SW version sux. It has a heavy trigger pull. It has a expensive magazine. Tends to be less reliable with hollow points. has basic sights, and the front tends to pop off, good luck getting a new one. No holsters are made for it specifically It fits small hands well, but the trigger pull will kill them. I have more if you want them |

My SW40VE is great. Never had any problems with it. It's not a tack driver by any means but like was said before I can put all the rounds from the magazine into the center mass at 10 yards rapid fire.
I fired the 9mm version before I bought my .40 and for some reason it felt like the front flipped more on the 9mm than on the .40. |

I'm happy with my 9VE. Hasnt failed me yet. It feels very good in your hand, and I know I feel better having it over having a Surefire and a can of mace... I'm sending it off to LSG later this month, so they can clean up the trigger action on it and make it take less than a full power shot to pull the trigger... |
