nonni, yes, it's a S&W Sigma .40

I got the LEDs at radio shack! Wired the LEDs in series to to drop the voltage to about 3+/- to each LED then installed them using those little plastic mounts that you drill like a quarter inch hole and push the LED and fixture into, looks and works great!!

haha, that was a good guess....

except the extra mag kindof shows what it is.

Im goin to try that, i have my Inverter power switch where the nickel holder is and my Efans switch where the quarter holder is.. it acts like a saftey for the switches.. you cant accedently turn them on.

but i need some light in there so you just gave me an idea..

Thanks jones!!

Yea, i JUST changed that mag to regular jacketed shells. I had that particular mag filled with hollow points. But, the other day i pulled up to the house and a bunch of dogs and **** were running our horses and biting at their heels... so i had to pull fire a couple rounds. well.. thinking about it later i realized i just wasted about 5 hollow points.. so i just put the HPs in the chamber and mag (14+1) that's in the gun, then the .. 'accessory' clip with target loads.

I think having the blue in the cup holder would get on my nerves but the white leds inside the console is a sweet idea
