I really like my US-made P210s (Target & Carry).

Every range session with these makes me like them more. I think I'd have preferred if the Carry had a steel frame though. The aluminum frame is fine but I think I'd have liked the heft of steel since the pistol is large anyway.

Still enjoying this Carry a lot. I did send it back to SIG because the safety was too easy to disengage. It would move just slightly down with tiny pressure. The lever would not fully engage the safety-off detent but the hammer would still drop if the trigger was pulled. SIG covered shipping and had it back in a week. Said they replaced a spring. It works great now.

I talked my buddy into tracking down his own P210 Carry too. It's on the way to him now. He also bought a P210 Target after I bought mine.

Here's a video displaying the safety issue.

The thumb safety on my wonderful P210CA snaps cleanly between its two positions. Perrhaps cycleling the safety will make your safety snap too.
A lot of dryfireing was needed to smoth-out the trigger. First class pistol - points very well.

Photoman, I just picked this up last week. I haven't shot it yet but have been carrying it around the house. It is the V1 variant LEM Light. How do you like yours?

I think it is the light version. I really like it and find them easy to shoot well, especially the SK.

I was ready to buy a carry until I discovered the frame was aluminum. It's probably perfectly fine, even better for carry, but I just preferred steel for a P210.
Then earlier this year I thought what the heck I should get one anyway because Sig will probably quit making the carry. When I went to buy, the only one still made was some custom version with rosewood grips and scrollwork embellished on the slide which put me off. I could replace the grips but I really don't want that scrolling on my P210 Carry so it looks like I missed my chance.

No car is as much fun to drive, as any motorcycle is to ride.

Keep on eye on Gunbroker. If you're patient you might be able to score a decent deal. I recently found this one for my buddy. He loves it. I really don't like the fancy version. I just don't know what SIG was going for with that. It might be better if they tarted up the frame too.
