Picked up new 9 yesterday
-
Maybe logic can give you advice on it.

A good gunsmith can probably fix the trigger pull.
that's GOOD gunsmith. I had one fix my old .22 magnum rifle trigger.
I love my little CTX 9. Kicks a bit for repetitive shooting, but that goes with
the territory of it being smaller.
and the double side safety works for me.

Because it has no thumb safety if you ever intend on carrying it I don't know about lightning the trigger pull

I'm not too worried about the trigger - feels pretty good to me. Firmer trigger is better for self defense, lighter better for the range - but I'm not a competitive shooter or anything.
It's basically identical to the glock platform - which I'm already comfortable with so this gun is already pretty natural to me. Glocks are also only brain safety - save for the double action trigger.

Cysko is right, they came from the Sigmas that generally had a pretty atrocious reputation.
I don't mind the SD line from S&W. The triggers are generally dookie but there are ways you can lighten it up and smooth it out (Google it; lots of people who did it all at home). But as far as being cheap and reliable, they accomplish both of those goals.
I am pretty fond of the M&Ps but have a good amount of trigger time on an SD9VE.

Edward I feel like you're not understanding that you're supposed to be liberal gun hating weenie. Do you wanna lose your club card? Well do you?

I did see that spring kit and the glock style trigger. I'll probably go with the trigger at least because I like the glock style much more than the hinge. I don't mind the heavier pull but I definitely wouldn't mind improving the travel.

You're gonna shoot your eye out.

I got Ruger sr22 to carry. Still small but you can actually grip it good enough to shoot straight.
-
I got about 200 shots through it today. I out tfo sights on it and they really helped me get back on target a lot quicker.
Trigger sucks, I still had decent groupings but it definitely affected my accuracy. I have the apex trigger on order so once I install it I'll get back out and it should be a lot better.

I don't know how the Apex is in the SD models but their triggers for the M&P are fantastic.

Put the new trigger on today - it's a world of difference. It doesn't take forever to break and reset - more accurate with it. Weight is still on the heavy side versus an M&P or a glock but I'm fine with that, just wanted the better trigger.

Glad that works better for you. I know the stock trigger on the SD9s are pretty atrocious.

M&P triggers are pretty bad too - I really can't stand the hinge style at all.
The way I see it I got a reliable gun for $310 (including trigger upgrade). I can't really complain - I wanted a G19 but this + 1000 rounds is about the same price.
My buddy's nearly-new SR9 had 2 light strikes at the range in about 150 rounds, no failures with this so I can't complain.

I can tolerate the stock M&P trigger but they have no audible or felt reset. That is why I went with the Apex trigger.
I generally don't like Ruger products. They can be hit or miss and I am not particularly fond of Bill Ruger. He was a bit of a cocksucker actually.

I think it's relevant. FNH has a manufacturing plant in SC I believe.Says 'America', highlights a Belgian pistol.

Oh yeah I forgot about that. So it was just more pandering from the "other brother" before his SC primary.
-
Yeah. He's been pretty good at that
