grapesmuggler27 Posted February 9, 2012 Report Share Posted February 9, 2012 Well after much consideration on other hand guns I finally made a decision today and went and bought the S&W sigma 9mm. After handling a few others, the sigma was my favorite. Fits nicely in my hand well balanced nice bright sights and half of what the the others would cost for the same function. I've read plenty of reviews and nothing really bad can be said about it. Have yet to throw some lead with it but that's on my to-do list this weekend Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r1crusher Posted February 9, 2012 Report Share Posted February 9, 2012 Does this mean you'll be going to the range one time and then entering into the IDPA Nationals?Sorry, I couldn't resist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grapesmuggler27 Posted February 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 9, 2012 Does this mean you'll be going to the range one time and then entering into the IDPA Nationals?Sorry, I couldn't resist.Actually when it come to shooting I'm a little better, when I was in the corps I was a 4x pistol expert, 5x rifle expert, rifle range coach and MOUNT instructor. While stationed with 2nd battalion 7th marines I helped teach LA SWAT how to clear houses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grapesmuggler27 Posted February 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 9, 2012 the SA. only thing that will take some getting use to is the little longer trigger pull, but that's just from what I can tell from a few dry fire shots.

Pokey Posted February 10, 2012 Report Share Posted February 10, 2012 Sigma is a good gun, nothing wrong with it at all. I would have recommended the new S&W SD9 or SD40.....there is "no better" gun out there for the money PERIOD!!!!!!http://www.smith-wesson.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Category4_750001_750051_757962_-1_757752_757751_image Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tpoppa Posted February 10, 2012 Report Share Posted February 10, 2012 The trigger is designed to feel like a DAO. Some like that, some don't. I like the Sigma trigger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speedytriple Posted February 10, 2012 Report Share Posted February 10, 2012 Never shot a sigma, but heard good things about them. I have been looking for a cheap 9mm for my Dad. I have it down to a sigma or a ruger p95. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C-bus Posted February 10, 2012 Report Share Posted February 10, 2012 Never shot a sigma, but heard good things about them. I have been looking for a cheap 9mm for my Dad. I have it down to a sigma or a ruger p95.IMO... the two best sub-$300 new guns out there. I have a Sigma, but is currently on loan. I'd stake my life on its abilities.

grapesmuggler27 Posted February 10, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2012 The only complaint I've heard is the 9 lbs trigger, its a Fucking glock 19 with a better grip, better mag release, better slide lock. I like the chamber hole and the way the extractor sticks out a little with a round in the chamber. I just couldn't justify spending $200-$300 more for a "bed-stand" gun, which is what my sigma will serve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

madcat6183 Posted February 10, 2012 Report Share Posted February 10, 2012 Dear Parks, my shifts at the bar are coming to an end soon. Are we going to go shooting or what? I need a reason to buy/build a 22LR AR rifle. Not to mention another carry gun..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldschoolsdime92 Posted February 10, 2012 Report Share Posted February 10, 2012 I'm going to let my girlfriend play with this and see how she likes it, if it fits her and she likes mine I would be purchasing her one as well. For the price of these I don't think you could go.wrong.You certainly can't. I have put over 700 rounds through mine, and i purchased it brand new in 2010. Its been a great weapon. Never a jam, misfire, or any other form of malfunction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

speedytriple Posted February 10, 2012 Report Share Posted February 10, 2012 Like I said my dad is looking to get his first handgun but he is stuck in the 1960 on gun prices since thats when he bought his last gun LOL. He thinks a handgun should be around $200. LOL! I told him that a decent gun is gonna run around $300. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
