I know I am resurrecting a pretty old thread but I presently own an SW9VE and couldn't be happier with it. It is one of the best hand guns I have ever owned (for the money). The trigger was a bit stiff, but as an old wheel gun guy it didn't bother me that much. However, I did do a little amateur gun-smithing and pulled the seer and removed the pig-tailed spring which dropped the trigger pull from around 11 pounds to around 6. Took me about 20 minutes.
