What’s Included
- Smith & Wesson SD40 VE pistol
- 1× 14-round factory stainless steel SD-series magazine
The satin-stainless slide resists rust without additional coatings, giving the pistol a durable two-tone look that stands up to daily carry or range use.
Smith & Wesson’s hinged Self Defense Trigger averages around 8 lb, offering a consistent pull that satisfies agency policies while remaining predictable shot to shot.
The full-length, two-slot rail accepts common lights and lasers, a practical upgrade over the proprietary rail found on the earlier Sigma line.
Magazine compatibility extends to both legacy Sigma and current SD 2.0 magazines, ensuring easy access to spares and higher-capacity options.
Ongoing production (2012–present) secures factory parts support and an active aftermarket, including popular Apex trigger kits for owners who choose to tune the pull weight later.
