Sigma question
i recently aquired a Sigma in .357 Sig. my understanding is that these are fairly rare? how much more valuable are they than the .40VE? course i know it's a Sigma so value is relative.

I have a friend that has a sigma in .40. He keeps it without a round in the chamber due to the lack of an external safety and practices racking the slide before shooting. Despite this racking the slide he says the first shot's trigger pull is much longer than the rest of the shots,like a double action. Does anyone know why this is, and if there is anything he can do to change it?
Thanks, RCS0 -
Imc8541,
I first want to say welcome to the forums here on Gunbrokeer.
Secondly, there is not much value in the Sigma line of S&W. The very first ones were OK, but then there was a design change after the Glock lawsuit for patent infringement. Your 357 Sig., might be worth $300.00-400.00, on the high end.

I don't know how "rare" these are, but I've seen a few for sale. (There is actually one listed on the auction site right now).
Unfortunately, I don't think you're going to get all that much much more for this than any other Sigma. Individuals interested in the 357 SIG caliber probably aren't that interested in the Sigma platform to shoot it out of.
I'd second a guesstimate of $350, give or take a bit.
For what its worth, the horrible Sigma trigger is, apparently, quite amenable to a trigger job to make it pretty decent. You might also consider a conversion barrel in .40SW, which might make practicing a little cheaper and more convenient.0 -
i just sent it to S&W for stryker upgrade. i'll see how the trigger is when i get it back. took it in on a trade. i have several Springfields including an XD which is hard to beat. 0 -
S&M is still marketing the Sigma line under the "SD9" and "SD40" names. I don't think I saw a .357 Sig in that line, but I don't have the 2010 catalog in front of me so I can't be 100% on that. 0
