Default Greetings all!

Hey there,
I am hoping some of you members here can give a little feedback and advice on S&W's SD40/SD9. I once owned a Sigma 9ve but sold it for something with a better trigger and smaller for CC. I've also owned/own or shot many semi autos, revolvers and long guns. My current CCW is a Kahr CM9. The long smooth trigger strikes a good balance between accuracy and safety for CC. It rides very easy on the waist.
I do want something with higher capacity for home, vehicle and occasional carry.

The SDs seem to get mostly good reviews and are quite affordable. One knock is the trigger, which I've tried and kinda liked for CC.
I know for a little more $ I could step up to a base M&P but what do you get for that money beside the trigger and an extra round?
Any info is appreciated...good, bad or ugly
THANKS.

Hello 1radman and welcome to the forum.
There is nothing wrong with the SD9 so if it feels good for you, go ahead and carry it.
