Hello

[Carguy59]

I just signed up to the forum this morning. I bought a new SD9VE earlier this spring. To be honest, at first I found it difficult to shoot accurately, especially compared to my 9mm revolver. However with some good instruction and plenty of range time I can get nice groupings at 10-15 yards. The gun is completely stock, no modifications at all. I've put over 1000 rounds through so far without a hiccup and with no signs of wear.

Welcome to the forum.

Welcome to the forum, Carguy59. Your experience is not uncommon with the SD9VE. Glad you like it.
Has the trigger started to become a little easier to pull now with 1K rounds thru it?

I'm a fan and member of the SD-VE No Mods group. No spring changes, no trigger changes, no coating, no sight changes.

Well, I do admit changing the take down bar but that's not a functional issue, just saves my fingers. (Just 1mm longer, made a big difference. From NDZPerformance- Extended Slide Lock Lever Stainless Steel)

If someone wants a target/match pistol they are available on the market.

Welcome, I am also keeping mine stock. Except for traction grips that is. It's a nice tool that compliments my Ruger.

Thanks for the warm welcome messages. Yes, Hemi, I've found the trigger pull has smoothed out a little, or maybe I'm just getting used to it. Either way I love my SD.

Welcome from Cincy. The SD is my nightstand gun. It, unlike me, performs every time it's asked.

Welcome from MN; I also have a completely stock SD

Welcome from Indiana! My SD9VE and I just celebrated our first year together-almost 1,400 rounds with no issues at all I just added the SD40VE, 3 FS M&P's and a Shield 40-yeah I think I'm hooked!

Enjoy your new SD/VE

Welcome from an old revolver guy in Louisville. If I had the money I'd certainly consider the SD9VE. But I don't, so I'll just say stick around, you'll like it here.
