I bought a 40GVE back in September as my first pistol. I've been told that probably wasn't a wise decision for my first, but I pretty much got my carry permit in NY for the "if Hillary gets in" reason that was mentioned before.

My reason for buying the Sigma was price and fit. Of all the pistols I actually held in my hand, the Sigma just fit. Period. I brought this one up to my face and the sights were immediately there.

I have to say, after a couple hundred rounds and some serious range time....it's a joy to shoot and I really am pleased with the purchase! I'm sold on S&W and have already been looking at the M&P line for a .45ACP and the 22A for a plinker.
