    New SD9/Range Day

    New around these parts, and wanted to try and post something useful for once. Picked this up from LGS w/ box, lock, warranty, and two mags. Probably some other crap, but didn't pay it much mind. Picked up a laser for it, but turned out to be craptastic. Decided to nickname her "Nanny", LOL!

    I've owned quite a few guns, Beretta 92/84/PX4, Glock 17/19/21/22, HP C9, and SW9VE. Pissed, cuz I never fired SW9VE, so I can not compare directly other then fit and feel. The SD by far is the lightest, thinnest, and best looking so far. A compact, or subcompact w/ rail, would be very nice.

    Put 50 rounds down range, and the recoil, and target aq, were a nice surprise. I definitely need more practice, but pleased so far. Half at 7 yards, and half at 15 yards. Few dead eyes, and missed to the left quite a bit so I know it's me and not the gun. Had one issue w/ FTE and mag dropping out instead. 1 out of 50, and since it cleared an empty mag not sure it's a bad thing. LOL! I'll see if this continues as I grow more accustom to the weapon. Any feedback on this?

    In closing, I think this was a great buy. Would recommend it, and lots of practice to any of my friends. Til this day the C9 is the most accurate, and cheapest by far. Crazy how that works out, and I kind of miss the old girl. Thanks guys.

    I picked up one for my wife 2 weeks ago and she really likes it. Had several FTF's but then she read the instructions and realized she was supposed to clean the gun first... She doesn't have anything to compare it to, but it will be her CCW. I shoot a Hi-power and CZ 75 Duty 40...I like mine better! Still...it's what she likes and she really is improving with it.

      Put another 50 thru her today, w/ no issues. Pretty sure that was due to user error. Great buy!

        I love my sigma, and have been eyeing the sd9 for a range gun. How's the trigger in comparison to some other guns?

          SD is much better then the Sigma. Still long, but not as heavy, closer to 8lbs pull. I'm thinking about the apex kit after break in. Should be really nice then @ ~ 5.5 lbs.
