Designed for concealed carry and home defense, Smith & Wesson SD40 VE Semi-Auto Pistol operates with a striker-fired action (no external hammer) that's activated with a 2-piece Self Defense Trigger for consistent pull. This pistol has a distinctive two-tone look with a polymer frame and contrasting stainless steel slide. Aiming is easy with a white dot front and dual white dot rear sight. The textured grip aids with control. A standard Picatinny rail under the muzzle and built into the frame allows easy accessory attachment. Other desirable features found on this S&W SD40 pistol are aggressive front and backstrap texturing on the grip, front and rear serrations on the slide to aid with operation, and a textured finger locator on the side of the frame above the trigger.
