    NO! I can finally say SD9VE/SD40VE barrels do not swap!

    I finally have both SD9VE and SD40VE guns. There has been alot of discussion on here about barrel swapping the two. I pulled the slides off both last night and tried it first hand. Its a no go gents. The front of the barrel is a perfect fit, but the back of the barrel where the little sight hole...

    My Smith family

    Out of all my Smiths, my SD40VE is my favorite to shoot. My 457 shoots great, but is more expensive. Anyone else have more expensive smiths but seem to gravitate towards their SD's or sigmas? I use my ERMA for plinking, and the SD for target/practice. Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2

    Sw9 pricing

    I will hopefully be buying a SW9 this weekend. Mint condition 1 extra mag. He is asking $275. That seems a little high to me considering a brand new SD9VE is $349. Anybody buy one recently and if so for what price? Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2

    Paddle holsters

    One of the great things i love about my paddle holster is it grips onto every type of pants i wear with or without a belt! My IWB holsters need a belt to stay put. The paddle even graps my pajamas and dont move. I tend to take night walks with my Newfoundland and wear my pajamas... Sent from my...

    Rear sight movement SD40VE

    Just noticed why i was shooting so well last weekend. Seems that the rear sight has moved its way to the left after 700rds. Any fix other than gluing it in place? Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2

    Traction grips

    Has anyone purchased the traction grips for their SD40VE? I like the concept of having the same size grip as factory but with a little more grip to it. Not sure if they will peel off after alot of use though. I love my SD40 and the only complaint i have about it is the grip. Couple hrs of...
