I got one right after it came out. I’m very happy with it!

[@BehindTheGoldenCurtain]

The first SD9VE was my first 9mm. It was a really good first gun and I never had a single reliability issue with it. The trigger was really bad, but I think that actually helped me learn good fundamentals. This version looks like a step up.

[@dozer313]

I agree I actually liked the trigger when I first bought mine but after getting more into it I realized the beauty of a good trigger I just wish they would make a sd40 2.0 also optic ready because my sd40ve is super reliable and accurate imo

@@dozer313 I bet if this model sells, they'll make a 40.

How do you like the APX? I thought about getting one but I’ve heard the trigger is garbage on them.

@@blackicekck9family379 I might wait it out for the SD40 2.0 I’m sure it’s coming. But I’ve wanted the G3C for so long. It was supposed to be my first gun but I always ended up going with something else once I got to the shop

[@vicv7075]

@@RahRighteous any feed back would be great. I have the full size APX A1 and it’s pretty dang nice that’s why I’ve considered picking up the compact but a lot of reviews I’ve read mentioned the trigger being horrible. Hopefully it’s been fixed or they were lies so I can pick one up😂

[@unclefuncker3098]

I still have my sd9ve and sd40ve and they both came with 2 mags 13 years ago. 100% reliable and accurate. The S&W warranty is top notch. These days I’d prefer a dagger for $299 though.

[@carlcasteel7159]

Me too, I guess because they can use Glock mags....

[@baptistgaming91]

I've always loved the SD line. Great pistol. It's the only glock clone I've ever liked. But like I'm always complaining about. They cut corners on the recoil spring. The 9mm and the .40 share a spring. For 40 its no big deal. But in 9mm it can causes ejection issues with weakly loaded 9mm. Id bet 90% of SDs that have issues would be resolved with the reduced power recoil spring that is sold online by a few companies. I have to be the only weirdo that actually liked the gen 1 trigger. Once you learn to stage it the pistol is a real tack driver. Great buy SPN.

[@legarmaniac402]

[@rsl82568]

I like what I see in the SD9 2.0. But I bought a SD9VE used a year ago. But I could not get liking the Trigger. I installed a Apex Trigger and upgrade the Slide Bar/Slide Lock to stainless steel. After the upgrades of my SD9VE. It is a pleasure to shoot. No malfunctions. Total cost of Gun and upgrades. About $390.00.

Back when they released the first versions of this..I had my first Glock 37 and a Taurus pt24 7..I almost bought that version smith countless times..maybe now..looks nice!

[@PrOGopogo]

I had the first generation SD9. I love the build quality but I sold it for CZP10C. The build qualities about the same but that triggers just uncomparable. Hopefully this updated version is better.

[@roadwarriormp88]

For a truck/tackle/toolbox or the buy and hopento never need use, a decent option. Used hinge trigger m&p 2.0's and even 1.0's can be had for a little bit more and with better features. Side note: would it be worth trading in a standard glock 30 for the 30s? My lgs has a used 30s just wondering if its worth the switch

[@OldCBnGuns]

I am strongly thinking of getting one. My grandfather had an original 90s sigma he hated it. But this gun has gotten more modern. I can’t stand Glocks mainly being from Massachusetts and the unobtainable prices on them as it’s hard to get a newer Glock legally in MA.

I also want to get a SD9VE not a 9mm fan but they are still required has being part of a Tool box , like my 40 , and larger caliber pistols for up close if needed and 9mm and lower for back up, it's like having a 9mm or 10 mm wrenches, right tool for the job 🤔 but both are required for a tool box ☑️

[@YrRTRDD]

All they did was change the serrations. Its the same internal trigger, they just put a flat face lever on it.

[@magnum_0710]

Im really hoping they make the 2.0 in 40, I'm kind of holding out for it. Then again im also considering going to revolvers entirely, my EDC had been the EC9s for the last 3 years. Only about 1000 rounds through it and its giving me issues. Between that and my experience with the DB380 I'm strongly considering going to revolvers 100%, never thought Id be the "6 for sure beat 12 maybes" guy but im getting close. Perhaps I need a Glock!

My other semi auto is a Taurus G3C and now I'm like if I can't trust my ruger to work how the hell can I trust a Taurus? Ruger thinks it might be the magazines so they sent me replacements. Should be going to the range soon, if it works ill be thrilled. If I have to replace my mags every 2 years then so be it.

[@stevelewis1221]

Please take it from personal experience, don't waste your money on a Kahr firearm. What I'm about to tell you is NOT an exaggeration. I bought a Kahr 9mm. I really liked the way it felt in my hands. I had three mags for it. I couldn't get through 1 mag without 2, 3 or more malfunctions. Kahr said there was a break in period. No problem except I was far past the 250 round break in that Kahr recommended. I polished the feed ramp and got it to run a mag or two, but then right back to jamming up. I traded it for a Springfield XDM in 45acp at the same shop I bought the Kahr from. I don't, nor will I ever own a Kahr firearm. Just thought I'd share my experience with Kahr.

[@malobeastt]

The only thing that sucks is that it’s comes with only one mag

[@JustinD-n5k]

I made the mistake of buying this particular pistol. The polymer frame is made of very hard plastic that has a shiny appearance to it. The trigger is really bad. Overall the pistol feels really cheap. It's definitely a low priced 9mm pistol that will serve the purpose for someone who can't or does not want to spend several hundred dollars for something better.

I really wanted it to work out and believe me I tried. Had it been reliable I'd say it's what the Glock 42 should have been. I now have the LCP I should have gotten in the first place. How the DB380 costs more than the original LCP right now is beyond me.

[@chrisp1601]

@@magnum_0710 that’s really upsetting because the DB380 is lighter and smaller than the LCP, it’s almost like a 32ACP. How heavy was the recoil spring compared to the LCP? The DB9 recoil spring is heavy “for reasons” but I was hoping the DB380 was lighter. The LCP is cheap because Ruger is trying to get rid of inventory, once it’s gone it will be discontinued like the LCP 2. I like the LCP Max but I like the thinner grip.

[@magnum_0710]

@chrisp1601 the recoil spring is different but I wouldn't say heavier, listen I loved everything about the DB380 and I tried everything I could to make it work. I spent enough money on ammo to buy 2 LCPs and that's not including what I paid for it originally. Neither I or Diamondback could get it to work. I had the Gen 3 first, trigger bar bent after 300 rounds, they sent it back but it looked like the bent part was cut off. When I asked about it they decided to replace it with the Gen 4. Surprisingly the Gen 3 was more reliable even the Gen 4 was supposed to be the more reliable version
