Smith & Wesson SD9VE

In the early 1950’s, Smith & Wesson was resolute to obtain a weapons contract with the U.S Army for semi-auto pistols, which consequentially led to a new division of their business. The result was the Model 39, and S&W has been revolutionizing the handgun market ever since. One of their more impressive innovations was the SD/Sigma Series, which were constructed with synthetic components, but were phased out and eventually replaced by the SDVE Series in 2012.
Smith and Wesson was confronted by legal issues when the SD Series debuted because of its design’s similarity to the Glock 17, which is a remarkable gun in its own right. The new and improved SDVE Series is as slick and sexy as it is durable and ergonomic. Overall, it’s a great gun to own for shooters of all experience levels who want reliable protection and easy handling. To see how it compares to other Smith & Wesson semi-autos, check out our reviews of the M&P and 500 Magnum. Oh, and welcome to our Smith & Wesson SD9VE 9mm Pistol Review!
