Hmm. Gotta disagree there. My department issue is the H&K USP-9. Our plainsclothes issue carry is the USPc. However, as one who actually carries concealed daily off-duty, I much prefer the SIG P-228 (or 229) (if I'm not packing a 1911), and certainly do not find this pistol "too heavy for concealed carry."The Sigs have great ergonomics and make great guns but I feel they are to heavy for concealed carry.
The H&Ks are extremely durable, reasonably accurate and totally reliable. Truly not as packable in the concealment department, and for most folks' hands, don't feel as good in the hand as the SIGs. And, if you're not the head bean-counter in charge of firearms purchasing for a large agency, or that agency's armorer, I suspect you'd have much better luck in the customer service department going with SIG.
