Besides the crappy trigger, is the S&W Sigma SW9VE any good?

Thay have them locally in 2 tone for $295. I love the way it fits my hand. Never hear too much about this gun and wondered if there are any concerns

I bought one a month ago for the price and the fit. The trigger is tough, but it is smoothing out and I am hitting pretty well at 25 feet now. Still can't hit the paper at 50 feet. Not necessarily the guns fault because my son can drill it at 50 feet. I just don't see how you could have any complain about a semi with a lifetime warranty for less than $300

I've read a couple of articles stating that the Sigma is essentially an exact copy of the Glock. Glock actually tried to sue S&W. So in theory, you're getting the same thing (minus the hexagonal rifling) in a different and less expensive package.

I own the SW40VE which is the same but in 40S&W cal. I've put well over 500 rounds through it including 165 Gold Dots which I keep it loaded with. When I first bought the pistol I had heard of the problems with it but for $239.99 new in box with lock and 2 mags I just couldn't turn it down. When I took it to the range with my 16 year old daughter we both fired the gun. This was her first time at the range and I was surprised by how she took to shooting. Anyway I loaded up both mags and rapid fired the pistol. As soon as the front sight was in the center of the rear I fired as fast as I could 2 mags reload 2 mags reload. When I dumped an empty my daughter was loading it up; I wanted it to screw up but it didn't. This went on for over 3 boxes of ammo until my trigger finger got tired. The only time the pistol got a rest was during mag reloads. I had no problems what so ever and haven't had any. Go to

i got one over a year ago 600 rds no problems and the trigger is lightening up nicely.it just started to become noticeable last range trip.it seems to rack a shell smoother also.

I had the 9mm, I loved the pistol never had a problem no FTF's ever and was very accurate, I just couldent stand the dam 10 pound trigger pull. It was too much of a chore to enjoy because of this alone, so I sold it. Other than the trigger it's a great gun for the money.
