Joined the Darkside got a polymer pistol.

But It ain't no ugly Gluck. Picked up a SIG SP2022 9mm today.

I have the LE version of this, called the SP 2009. I like it, but I haven't put many rounds through it. I'm not as accurate with it as I am with my Berettas. Oddly, I did have pretty good luck with a Sig P226 I tried. Maybe I just have an allergy to polymer frames or something.

No, Bubba, no!!



What happened to the 3rd Gen Smith...or the RIA 9MM...or anything made of steel???

Well, you're right...at least it ain't a Glock.

Gonna get a 3rd Gen Smith soon, those are too good of deals to pass up, but so was the Sig

I'm with shoeshooter, I buy weapons made of iron and steel. Maybe one with an aluminum frame. SIG P225.

You can't go wrong with a Sig. Out of the box accuracy and reliability. I love my 220, 228, 226, and 230.

I seriously doubt it.

One of the things I like about Glocks and Sigs is the fact that they don't have manual safeties. A manual safety that you have extensive training on is great but if you have several weapons a DOAish model like these removes learning the safety as an obstacle. It also alleviates the need for ambidextrous safeties.

I like "plastic" pistols. They're lighter and hence, IMHO, better for carrying. "Plastic" won't rust but I once saw a Glock that someone's dog got a hold of...

Congrats! Sigs are awesome!

Despite my frequently stated aversion to "plastic", both of your points have merit. I much prefer DAO for my carry gun. This can be done without plastic, as my oft-carried S & W 3953 proves. That being said, 9 out of 10 days there is a Taurus .380 in my pocket while the metal SIG .380 stays home. Mostly it's because the Taurus does not have a manual safety (which this SIG does), and partly because plastic is lighter. Every platform has it's place. Aesthetically, however, I will take traditional materials any day. Some like blondes, some prefer redheads.

Mostly I just like giving BubbaT a hard time.

A blue 1911 with rosewood grips would prolly be the most attractive weapon in this class IMHO.

A Sig (non pro) would be my personal fav but the polymers seem to be the best bang for the buck and lighter.

I also prefer good, old-fashioned metal. I'm not very accurate with my Sig Pro, and I can't hit the broad side of a barn with most Glocks I have tried. I can't explain it.

Lol. Just trying to get a rise out of him. Guess he over looked it.
