Well i guess i am one of the lucky ones my sw99 .40 is doing very well and hasnt had one tovepipe or malfunction since owning it over 600 rounds or so. i have only used two different ammo federal and blazer, no problems, it shoot good as good as my sig,but i am no marksman and neither is any standard gun i have seen yet out of the box, the sig recoil being different I would expect that since the sig is heavier. what i do see is alot of different opinions and to many from people who either havent shot one or heard about one or some range gun, well first, i think range guns are for looks and feel. if you trust an abused gun, who know how old or misused then well ok, make your decision, I like everyone else like to talk about other guns but i limit my comments to either articles or trusted friends who i shoot with about what i know. just doesnt make since to jaw away at something i am unaware of( if you know what you are talking about well then jaw away). if we all liked the same gun then there would only be one, i have a couple of guns to many but that what makes it fun, i liked the sw99 for the grip and .40 cal and decocker, as well as weight, the trigger is pretty nifty but not for everyone, obviously since most gun makers have many different triggers even for the same gun. it has a crisp end point and the long pull is more for safety than accuracy in my opinion. some mention the mag release is akward, only if you try using two hands. it fits me great for a quick Right hand thumb drop and release. but hey this is only one person with just one SW99 not the entire market share.
happy shooting
Mike
