How loose is your SD?

Is the frame rattle within normal specs or something that I should have S&W take a look at?

Normal for SD yes.....normal for modern semi-autos no

New trigger in Sigma?

I've been eyeballing an SD but this is giving me 2nd thoughts. I've heard and read mostly good reviews on the SDs.
If S&W is discontinuing the SD does anyone believe the Sigma will get a better (lighter) trigger.
Seems like a no brainer for S&W.
I sold my Sigma cause of the trigger but otherwise it was a great value and 100% reliable.

Id go with the time tested Sigma, I doubt S&W will do anything to the Sigma seeing as it is selling so well. They would have to retool their line.

My SD shoots fine it kicks more than a Sigma since it is lighter, my only concern is how the gun will wear in.

Update having shot my SD40 for a while the slide is even looser now so much so that when I let others shoot it they comment on how they can see the rear sights shift as you pull the trigger. The entire rear of the slide will flex with the tension of the trigger as you pull it. I really think this is due to the rear rails not being attached to the frame.

Comparing my Sigma to my SD you can see the Sigma frame is much thicker where the rails are inserted in the front.
