I took a chance and bought a buddy's slightly used Smith & Wesson 5904 9mm. It looked nice and the price was right.
Took it to the range with a couple boxes of cheap ammo and while the pistol was reliable, it wasn't all that accurate out beyond 20 feet. It wouldn't hold 5" groups at 10 yards.
I usually shoot substantially better than that with my 9mm Sig, CZ, and Walther.
What's your experience? It functioned well, however, the trigger pull is a little strong, but since the gun hasn't had 400 rounds run through it in it's life, I figure that will change over time. Should I just chalk it up to the Remington UMC FMJ's or should I have done my homework before hand and found out some well kept secret that Smith's don't shoot straight?
Lemme know...
