A Practical Choice

The SD40 VE delivers the stopping power of the 40 S&W cartridge in a frame small enough for concealed carry yet large enough for comfortable shooting. The fiber optic sights cut through poor lighting conditions, while the self-defense trigger provides the kind of consistent performance you need when it matters most.
