Sigs are great. I am good with the test results. The Sig P320 is booming on the civillian market.
OF COURSE it is not for sale here in communist California. Good thing for the ubiquitous P220.
They are all great guns. Each and every one of them. I wouldn’t feel unarmed with any of them in my hand.
The problem is that the entire DoD wants a single firearm so only one product is selected, and that’s probably just plain silly.
I carried an M9 after they took away my very worn out M1911. It broke multiple times while I was on the range. That worn out 1911 fired every time I pulled the trigger, no exceptions, it wasn’t very accurate but it was reliable.
I have owned one Sig p220. The first time I dove to the ground with it, I broke the hand grips. The disassembly lever started out tight and within a few years completely locked up requiring application of hammer and brass rod to remove and replace. I don’t know how many rounds I have shot through it but the barrel is now shot out when my various Colts, S&Ws, Rugers, and Glocks have held up over approximately the same number of shots.
Not sure who should have won the competition but I’ve had not great experiences with 2 of 3 mentioned rivals.
I am a Glock fanboy and I thought the M9 was a nice pistol but a little big. The M&P 9 is a really nice gun too but the Sig 320 just doesn’t trip my trigger.
