I love S&W, but those look like yet another Sigma.  Does "VE" stand for "value-engineered"?

Looks like S&W is trying to compete  in the $300 price range.

Yeah, just looks like another version of a Sigma.

I don't know why folks are so rough on them.  I have one and  like it.  It just melts in my hand and shoots great.

It seems that since they originally stole Glock's trigger and got sued, everyone trashed them.  Ruger pretty much copied Keltec with their 380 and no one batted an eye

If they are only $300.00, I will be tempted to try one.
