[QUOTE="Glock 'em down, post: 1493680, member: 684"] [B][SIZE="4"]UPDATE:[/SIZE][/B] First of all, I appreciate everybody's comments and ideas. A lot of you suggested that I forget about the Rugers. So I did. Then, some more of you suggested that I keep the Bodyguard and buy an M&P. Again...I did. Sorta. I [I]did[/I] keep the model 38 Airweight Bodyguard. For now. I might be leaning towards a no lock 442 in the very near future if anybody has one they wanna trade. :naughty: But for now, I do have a new pistol in the mail headed my way. :w000t: [b][Broken External Image][/b] [b][Broken External Image][/b] I really, really like the Smith & Wesson M&P, but I saw a few revues on the SD40 and even picked one up at my local toystore and played around with it. "But...it's just a refined Sigma!" most guys will say. Not true. I've owned a Sigma before (twice actually) and while I still say the Sigma will do everything a Glock or XD or yes, even an M&P will do, I saw this little guy and couldn't help but think to myself that this is what happens when a Sigma and an M&P get together and spend a wild weekend together! :naughty: The Sigma/M&P love child! Anyway. I read and watched a few revues and really fell in love with this pistol. By getting it instead of an M&P, I saved enough money (around 100 bucks!) to do the unthinkable. I bought an accessory that I said I would [B][I]NEVER[/I][/B] own... :hellno: [b][Broken External Image][/b] With the deniro I saved by buying the SD40 instead of the M&P, I bought this light as well. The reason I chose this light over a couple of others (Insight X2 and Streamlight TLR-3) was again, the price (hey! I gotta pay the :censored:[B]ING[/B] IRS $1400 next month! Money is tight! :grumble:) but I also like it's design. Instead of having a toggle that you rotate either up or down for momentary light, it has ambi push buttons similar to a mag release button.
