Here is why I haven't bought one:

I bought the Ruger EC9 for $200 new. What does the Sig give me? 10 rounds versus 7. Is that worth another $500 to me?

For me, no. I often carry a 5-shot J-frame so I obviously don't care very much for extra rounds. Apart from an active shooter scenario, my self-defense gun is a "get off me" gun. I don't sweat larger capacity so I don't need to spend another $500 to replicate a gun I already have - except for 10 rounds instead of 7.

Other people, other threat environments - I'm retired & semi-rural - may value the extra rounds. My standard "Go to church" gun, which is more of the active shooter scenario, is a Glock 27. Since I like DA/SA, I may buy a Bersa Thunder UC for my church gun. 10 rounds of 40 S&W with a DA/SA trigger. It is wider than a Sig 365 and a little longer and taller, but it gives me things I don't have in a J-frame or EC9 or Glock 27.

Agree completely, the EC9 (not its sibling, the LC9) was my choice as well. Spent over an hour at the gun show testing every available pocket9 trigger. EC9 had the smoothest, most predictable trigger I could find. I added an extended magazine with a pinky rest for $31.

It’s only slightly larger than the .22 Beretta Bobcat I’ve pocket carried for years.

I was tempted several times to get the Ruger. I mean at $200 its almost a throw away gun. But then I’d try it at the store, and the trigger never feels right. Too much creep or not smooth. I’d mention it to any of the dealers and the reply is always the same. “That’s what you get for $200.” I’m just picky about consistent, smooth, trigger press and reset. The Ruger never quite satisfied. I dont want to spent $200 on a gun and then another $300 to upgrade triggers/parts. But clearly there is a market out there for the less expensive pistol.
