I'm planing to buy my wife a big 30 next paycheck. The sdve is to bulk for her to carry 24/7. Any thoughts concerns or comments on this pistol as a carry weapon specifically for a female shooter?

Has any one have knowledge or experience with replacing standard rear sight with a red dot or holographic. I'm primarily interested in something that fits the dovetail grooves on the slide possibly by adding a weaver style rail to the top. IV searched but the net is a big sea to fish in any...

So there is no difference in the mp sights when ordering as far as slide lock up and fit? I saw both options for the mp shield and mp core I don't wanna order the wrong one

Any one install trijicon or truglo on there sd40? When you ordered the sights did you use the sights for mp shield or mp core?

I'm hoping to gain a threaded barrel and with the sd the barrel lug has a notch in it that locks to the takedown lever. The me appears to be smooth so my hope is that with a minimal amount of machining aftermarket mp barrels could be an option were currently the are none.

An instructor told me when me and my wife were selecting witch caliber sdve would be better. he opted for the forty for girls especially biggies because the 9am has alot less recoil power and can stovepipe and fail to eject due to limp wrist. Basically the 40 is got more boom and can operate...

In my opinion, go very simple, no external safety. Have a balanced natural feel in the hands and spend what it takes to put trusty trijicon night sights on. (Most she situations occur at night) And the other important aspect to me is penetration to much can be dangerous to neighbors and family...

Thanks. I know that most modern weapons are mentioned to be deactivated that way but it never hurts to ask around

That would be most excellent! I have a friend who is an engineer and has been retired for a while and has too much time and more equipment and tools than I have hairs on my head. We would love the project!

My self, as well as many people I believe, fully cycle the weapon after any cleaning, maintenance, field strip exct.. The sd as well as alot of other modern pistols do not have a decocking mechanism. So the question what do you prefer, dry fire the gun empty? Or fire a snap cap? The purpose of...

There is a sign behind the counter in the store that says, " firearms used with walmart ammo will not be returned for service". Or some bull **** like that I asked and he answered. EVERY ONE disagrees with the explanation he gave me so I conclude, he was full of ****.

I am very pleased to have such a consistent pattern in response. I tried match in box numbers with manufacturers but that didn't work the way I wanted it to thanks to every one for the info. Good to know I don't have to worry on this matter!

Hey m&p owners! I just had a quick question regarding m&p .40 barrels. I have an sd40ve, there aren't many upgrades for it so I turned to look at the m&p for compatible parts. The barrels look similar but a picture is a picture. Would anyone be willing post some measurements of the .40 Cal...

So my local gun Smith from whom I bought my sd40ve has put this fear of firing walmart ammo through my pistol based on him telling me that they have had to send several pistols back to the manufacturer with bulged- deformed barrels. IV never had that problem with ANY pistol iv fired before but...

Hey my name is nick, me and my wife just bought a brand new sd40ve. We shot about 50 RDS at the range and I love it no problems very accurate. So this brings me to my question does anyone know if any of the more predominant models have the same sights as the SD? I was hoping to install a set of...
