For those who are interested I was @ Academy in Plano today and they had the sigmas for 299 and also have a $50 rebate. So $249 for both the 9mm and .40. Until Saturday then the price goes up to $329 or something. I think you still get the rebate. I am not sure if this is at all Academy locations but I think it is. I was thinking about getting my wife the 9mm.
