    Got everything in the pic for less than $350. When I get back from my weekend daddy/daughter trip I’ll get to work.

    I've been waiting for someone to bring up the SD40VE, a pistol I owned for several years to be used in a back up/home defense role. I estimate I put approximately 2,500 rounds through it during that time, plus a fair amount of dry fire. I always took it along on each trip to the range, shooting at least a few dozen rounds. Although the sights and firearm were never altered or modified, the trigger did become much smoother. I experienced absolutely no malfunctions, but in all honesty, the shooting I did was not in any competition or timed. In retrospect, I believe the decline of the .40 caliber round influenced my decision. Just my 2¢.

    Put a 100 rounds down range this morning. Haven’t added the Apex parts yet. Wanted a baseline. More details here:https://gunsnobbery.wordpress.com/20...e-first-shots/

    I had one that I used for a "downstairs" stash pistol. Installed the Apex trigger kit which worked well. Ran quite a bit of ammo through it and had no issues. Ended up selling it to buy something else. I would have no issues carrying it if it were my only choice.

    I realize this is an old thread, but I love my SD9VE with it's APEX trigger... came that way, and got it for a really good price. I can see why Glock hated it, as it feels better than the Glock 19 gen3 I had... yep traded that one for a Glock 20sf gen3.

    Huh. Thx for reviving this. Just realized I never posted the final article I wrote. Well, here it is:

    I’m seriously thinking about sending a slide to Nameless Arms and having it cut for an RMR. Would be a good travel gun.
