S&W Sigma

[tbeak]

i shot my first one this weekend and like everyone says it has a long hard pull. could someone explain the lawsuit spring to me??? i'm not familier with that? I probably would not buy one, i'll just keep my sig. she's purty and i like her.

X3.......but in reality, for the average pistol owner who does not shoot much, $249 is a good deal.

Yep...I have my share of glocks but if I didn't and was starting out $249 is a freaking steal! They aren't bad guns...but just like everything else there are better ones out there imo...

I guess it kind of depends how much of a Glock fan you are I know its a Ford/Chevy, Hoyt/Mathews, Mac/Windows thing

worst pistol ever made

Takes about 10 minutes to fix the trigger. Just remove the lawsuit spring, and it brings it down a few pounds. I've read some reviews of competition shooters saying its quite possibly the most accurate/reliable pistol they've ever shot.

i just did this to mine and there is a considerable differance

You can youtube search for sigma trigger. Basically there is a pigtail spring in the rear trigger assembly that does nothing but increase the tension of the trigger pull. It serves no other function, and its often referred to as a lawsuit spring; because, the theory is Glock made them add it after winning the lawsuit. I've also read that LE agencies requested it for a heavier trigger, the real reason may be neither. Removing it and lightly polishing the trigger surfaces is supposed to equal a smooth 5.5-6 pound trigger in a gun that goes bang everytime.

I know its an inexpensive gun, but with several hundred rounds through mine I have yet to have so much as a hiccup out of it. Its accurate and goes bang everytime, not sure what else you could want for the price.

Of note there are two different version of this weapon. One is the SW40/9 and the other is the SW40/9VE. The second one is an "enhanced" version that had some bugs worked out there were present in the first generation. The trigger is still heavy in the VE but not as bad as the originals.

not a fan - definitely worth a couple hundred more to get an M&P, XD, or Glock.

Thanks ag. appreciate it. its pretty easy to do though huh? the guyi know that has this may be interested in that little piece of information. he doesnt shoot much at all and was having a really hard time with the trigger this past weekend. his is heavy and it was making him twist the gun.

Just make sure you do the trigger mod not the striker mod. Some people have switched out the striker spring to lessen trigger pull, which can work, but results in weaker strikes on the primers. The trigger mod, changes ONLY the trigger weight and nothing else.

It's an ok gun for the money.

I would probably buy one to use as a truck gun but not sure I would carry it as a SD weapon.
