Can’t complain about the P226/8/9 at all.

I see the complaints about the P230/2, it is what it is though. It’s what I would expect from a smallish, direct blowback.

I wish the SP2022’s trigger didn’t break so far back. My only real complaint on that one.

P320 has been great, even though the factory grips leave me rather unimpressed. I really need to get around to buying a P365, I’ve liked it the couple times I’ve shot one.

Which brings me to the P250. My experience with the P250 kept me from trying the P320. Orbi should say my buddy’s experience. He had an early P250. Had issues with it. I managed to get some shots off with it and it was fine, but just didn’t seem like a SIG. It was rather a headache for him.

So although the obvious answer is the Mosquito, the P250 would be right behind it.

Just because something is legal to do doesn't mean it is the smart thing to do.

Of the Sigs I have owned I will have to agree that the p230 is my least favorite. I do however prefer the 239 over any of the others that I have owned.
By choice I have never owned a single action only, I am just not a fan of it. I learned on a wheel gun and I don't want anything where I have to worried about turning off a safety.


Integrity is doing the right thing, even when nobody is looking.

Sig P238. Vastly unnecessary upon the arrival of the P938 (for me). I understand it can serve a viable purpose for those who are recoil sensitive, but not for me. First and only pistol I have sold in years.





If you're goin' through hell, keep on going.
Don't slow down. If you're scared don't show it.
You might get out before the devil even knows you're there.

P938. It was accurate but I could not shoot it two handed without getting my hands in the way of the controls. Lots of shooter induced malfunctions or flicking the safety on when I did not intend to.

I know that's somewhat on me but it just didn't work for me.

Toss up between a 239 in .40 and the 250.

Same here. Tried, but just couldn't come to love it. The P250 was also something I just didn't like although I love the P320.

Had to laugh at this! While it doesn't make my "favorite" list, it definitely is a cherished firearm. Why?? It has all of the SA/DA features of other classic Sigs, but it does have problems with ammo. Hence, it's a perfect training pistol. Lots of FTF and FTEs. If one wants to work on failure drills, this is the pistol you want to own.

I use it regularly in my classes for this very purpose. Could have sent it back to Sig for some work, but realized the potential I had with the factory pistol.

P250 or P290RS... choices choices... Bought the P250 brand new when they first came out and I think it was in the $500 neighborhood so I'm going to have to go with the P250. Got the P290 used for like $125 so I can't be extremely upset about it..

Neither are ideal, but I suppose the P290rs serves its purpose. It's not supposed to be extremely "fun" to shoot, but it goes bang every time I've pulled the hefty trigger.

Have 4 Sigs and hate the "combat hold" sight picture Sig continues to use. Modified or changed sights on 2 already. Plus have a 938 9MM which is already out of date and now it's a 938 Legion that takes different magazines than my 938.

M11, just because of the name. Just call it what it is and be done with it. I don't like marketing gimmicks.

The SIG 320, too much muzzle rise for me IMHO

P250 full size in .45 apc. Not a fan of revolver triggers in semi-autos. Having said this, the maintainability was really easy! Kept it 3 years.
