Default SW40VE vs Ruger SR40?

So I really had my eye on this SR40 down at my local GS but now my neighbor approached me that hes selling is SW40VE with less than 100 rounds shot for 300 with 2 holsters and 4 magazines.

What would you do? Give me some pros and cons of both cause I searched and searched on both and I just can't make up my mind at this point.

Do you have a local range that rents guns? Maybe you could shoot both and that may help you decide which one you like better. I have no experience with the Ruger but I bought a new SW40VE and put thousands of rounds through it without a single failure but I never liked the trigger even with an Apex kit in it. I kept it for about 10 years and recently traded it for a 4006 and I am much happier for it.

None of the above. Get a 9mm instead of a .40 S&W.
