RE: new S&W... a couple of questions
I have a Sigma in 40 S&W.
I shoot 180 gr Win Q load ( white box) and reloads.
I don't remember excactly what I payed but it was about that . MSRP is a joke !!
With my 40 I shoot 3-4" groups at 25 yds .
Not great but about the same as the Glock Model 22 40 S&W I had before.
Not the same as your 9mm but close.
