Yes, you can buy one new for $300 after the rebate. I'd get it checked out first and/or shoot it to make sure all is okay. Not sure if $200 is good but I know someone here will know the value.

You can get them brand new on line at www.budsgunshop.com for $299 delivered. I would go rent one before you pay a dime for it. I was ready to buy one and read pretty bad reviews about it. Decided to rent one and determined the people writing the reviews were being too kind. S&W should be embarassed putting their name on such a sad excuse for a gun.

I try not to talk about guns that I have not personally owned, but I have not heard one good thing about the Sigma.

I have. I hated mine. I replaced the striker spring. Now it is a new gun.

Of course if you read up everyone complains about the heavy trigger pull. The eariler models were worst than the newer ones. They are still selling them brand new at the local gun store for $279.00 after the mail in rebate. Depending on how many rounds they have put through it, I would give them no more than $225.

Save your money and buy something else. Terrible trigger.

Thread closed because I don't think you're old enough to buy a handgun.
