I look for Sig Sauer to come out the winner on this go round.
They have had the 'modular handgun' project rolling for a couple of years and seem to be on the inside track for gov't contracts.
Caliber?...I hope it's .45acp...but maybe .357 Sig will take the prize.

Squantos, well, I have admit I’m intrigued by the 227, but haven’t been able to get my mitts on one yet. Perhaps one will be available for close up inspection at the big GunShow end of July. Lots of uber cool stuff at that one.

i think you will like it.... the grip is imo perfect as is..... no aftermarket add ons for this one. out of the box perfection.

So use 1911’s chambered in 10mm (or develop a 10.5 or 11mm round). Besides, isn’t the “7.62x51 NATO” essentially a 308 Win?

Hey brother Squantos!!! Good to hear from ya.
“...Never felt under gunned or out ranged...”
That’s a great, confident feeling, ain’t it?

I've come to the conclusion that ergonomics is everything. The worse the fit, the more "pre-stress" that gets pre-loaded into your hand and arm before even firing the first shot.
In my case, if the handgun has swappable parts to redo grip shape, I get consistently better (and more comfortable) shooting with the grips reduced as much as possible.
