I have a few hundred rounds loaded up too, plus a few thousand shiny Star cases and 180-grain JHPs to go with 'em. My G20SF loves 'em, but I'd bet the 220 would too. It'll be interesting to see if the new 220 is the same size as the .45 version or ever-so-slightly smaller.

Either that or just a tad bigger to add strength and accomodate all ammunition loaded to cartridge overall lengths consistent with SAAMI specifications.

I'd be very interested as well. Hope Sigs can make the pistol durable for Silvertips type loads.

Love the Winchester Silver Tips! found some at the gun show last week and the guy sold them to me for 25.00 for a box of 20. I still have 500 rounds of ppu and I like them but there not Winchester silver tips!

Thats Excellent. Now can you get them to bring back the P245 or make a P239 in .45ACP? The 239 is perfect size for every day carry, But it would probably sell more in .45ACP than it does in .40S&W.

I hope Sig can keep street price at around $1000.00 for these models. I have a 1076 which some would argue is the same, but I have always shot my Sigs better than large frame S&Ws'. As to a steel frame 227 10MM in the future it would be OK, but 8 or nine rounds compared to 10 or 11 rounds of 10MM just doesn't concern me.

I'm all over this one, now can anyone call SIG with me and ask for a P220 in 38 super? SHOT show they announced 38 super in the 1911, so why not?

I'm not a fan of the 40, especially in a small package. Actually a 380 in the p239 might be better than a 40, i think less recoil would make it deadly accurate at close range. I think the 45 ACP cartridge is longer, they'd have to redesign the frame.

The P220 Compact SAS is, to all intents and purposes, the same as the P245.

P220 in 38 Super are available. I am so fortunate to have one.

Then they banned skittle shooting, and then centre-fire handguns, and then rimfire handguns, and then.........

I'd have one of these new pistols like a shot, if only I could. Strange as it sounds, in one quarter of the United Kingdom, I actually COULD have one, but sadly I don't live there.

Truly, I'm sorry to hear that Sir.

Okay....I guess somebody has to be the first to ask...

Is there any indication of when these pistols will be released for sale? I'm not looking for a date to mark on my calendar, but... 2015? 1st, 2nd,3rd quarter? Anything?

The P227 was out for a year or so before I saw any in Canada, so I won't be holding my breath for this...but it would be nice to have some vague idea.

Hi, Tengoo!

I can't speak for SIG on delivery dates for the first two models, but it won't be far into 2015.

Why hasn't Sig mentioned this on their website yet?

That's what I needed to know...thanks Bruce. I foresee an exciting birthday self-gift!

Having owned several, to say the least, 10MM pistols and revolvers I will seriously consider a SIG 10MM. My concern would be, as with some other 10MM pistols, adequate slide mass. The P220 slides seem to have a lot of steel machined away. I hope they leave as much mass as possible in the 10MM slides, rather than try to make up for perhaps marginal slide mass for the caliber with heavy recoil springs, buffers,etc. I would hope the factory SIG 10MMs would handle the equivalent of the old original NORMA 200 grain ammo without concern. I know SIG could do it just do as Colt did with the Delta Elite, by leaving the slide as light as on the standard calibers and using dual recoil springs with buffer type recoil spring guide,etc. Hope Not! If they do it right, I'm in!
