Used is OK in my experience to9. And it is perfect for the motor home Airman, especially while driving through California, since that is the only way they allow you to transport a loaded gun.
I did notice that when I use my Outside of the Pants Holster, it can scuff the polymer in places. I guess that would be true with many models, not just the SW9VE. I tried lining places in the holster with electrical tape, and that seems to lesson the wear. Wear on a gun us not good for resale value. I also have decided that I still want a compact for carry in the summertime. I use the Inside the Pants Holster in summer and that full size just does not feel right. I don't use a fanny pack, so I am in the market for a reliable compact.
Here is my SW9VE with the Out holster, and my Buck knife. And a bonus..... I threw in a picture of my K22.......with the 6" barrel.....it's a classic.
