OK, was planning on purchasing a 40C this week with a S&W sale coming to my local dealer.
One of the HUGE pros for me was after firing a rental model, I actually out shot my Glock 27 which I loved and think is a great gun.
So I decided to do some research; changing barrels and magazines, based on multiple threads in this and other forums, seems to be very popular and a great pro to buy.
I had a chance to buy a used model for a very good price and decided to call customer service to check on warranty for a second owner. They said there was none. Original owner only, all others are zero, nada warranty.
I asked about the multiple caliber capabilities. They said they do not sell barrels (which many people said to buy original vs OEM), and ANY change would void all warranties. Just stick with the original caliber or no warranty, no service.
So, help me here folks, should I buy this or not? I can get multiple barrels and mags for my Glock, but if Smith is a one caliber only deal, why spend the $500 bucks?
Thanks in advance for any input, the sale is Friday and Sat so I need to decide what to do pretty soon. I just hate to buy a one trick pony here when I already own a multi-capable Glock.
BTW, I own multiple S&Ws, but want to move away from my Shields since they consistently give me failure to return to battery problems, making them unreliable IMHO.
