Not interested but you might want to add if it's a true "SW99" and not a 990,990L, or QA.

Not fakes just different trigger systems, they all say SW99 on the slide but check the label on the box that has the sin and it should say. Wasn't trying to shit up your thread just that when it comes to that gun it's useful to add the specific model.

Ok reading this http://www.smith-wesson.com/wcsstore...other/SW99.pdf

I say it is a true SW99... it can be fired SA/DA with decocker on the top... it is not DAO and not a quick action only QA like a glock..

No problem man... I just didn't know they offered different variations... thanks for the info...

I will verify when I get home, its in a safe where its been for a while now, but from reading about the trigger systems I would say its a true or regular SW99...

Great gun... I actually shoot it better then my two glocks I have from the PD but I never carry it or shoot it anymore ya know...

Does this refer to the lawsuit that they settled on? I have an SW99 and the trigger absolutely sucks. I was later told that Glock Sued S&W for copying them and S&W was forced to make changes to the trigger mechanism as a result.

I was shooting with my buddy a while back and when I let him run a few rounds through it he immediately noticed a huge difference compared to one he had tried a few months prior. We were talking about it with the counter guy at the range and he explained the lawsuit to us. He said before the suit they were great guns but they were forced to make changes that completely ruined them. I have since decided on upgrading to the glock or the Springfield because it is that bad to shoot. It's definately something you might want to be familiar with before you advertise.

The lawsuit was in regards to the sigma series, I can't imagine how glock could sue S&W for the 99 series when it ha a decocker.

free bump, if you like 99's this is the best version imho

I shoot glocks daily for work and actually prefer the SW99... for practical and safety reasons I don't switch back and forth... I train and carry what I am required to for work... only reason I am selling... well that and to buy other toys

That old CORI issue still coming up to bite you?

[VinceF2]

Bump... $300 in MA takes it... great gun for a great price...

[Mr. Kurtz]

Would you sell to a CT permit holder? I don't know the procedures to do that type of transfer, but can find out if so.

He would need to have his FFL send it to your FFL. You would be paying at least one transfer fee, maybe two depending on his dealer and the shipping cost.

[Mr. Kurtz]

Hmm....yeah, makes it quite a bit more costly. I've got a CT FFL that will do it for $25, but then I'd have to add in his local FFL and shipping, puts the whole thing closer to $400.
