Talk me into (or out of) a Sig P250 or SP2022?

My only two sigs are the 2022 and a 229. I like them both but the 2022 is by far my favorite of the two. The trigger is amazing. The 2022 may be my favorite "service sized" handgun. Not sure why it isn't more popular :dunno:

The BATF trials were with a Gen 2 gun yet is had more shooter and gun induced failures than anyone else in the trials.
My understanding is that the trials resulted in Sig making several updates to the pistol - dunno if those updates were considered Gen 2 or were made to Gen 2 pistols. The current shipping versions seem to be performing well for most folk, although that doesn't much help those that bought into the earlier versions.
 
I had a Sig Sauer SP2022 for a little while. It was a great gun and I liked it a lot. Never jammed once the entire time I had it and was very accurate. Only got rid of it because I had too many 9mm handguns and wanted a .45
 
Today I bought a P250 9mm subcompact to go with my 229. Im consolidating all my differenct types of ammo. Getting rid of the .38s/357s. Too many guns, too many different ammos around the house.

The sig subcompact hold 13 rounds, fits either in the small of my back or up front (mexican style) for concealed carry. Personally, i think Sig should have shortened the barrel by another 1/2" ....but hey.

The ONLY reason why I bought the 250 subcompact was for concealed.

BTW, I hate Glocks and the other possible concealed carrys are just too small and would be BRUTAL on my hands with +P ammo.

the 250 was the best compromise.
 
Can't fault the choice. Lots of great features for the price and I think the more recent ones are considered 2nd gen after they worked the bugs out. I'd be interested to see what your opinion is on the trigger pull once you've taken it out. Enjoy!

Despite what the speculators vs. actual owners are saying on this thread, there is absolutely NO problem with the length of trigger pull. Its 10x better than my SW J'Frame as far as smoothnes and length. I think the SW is up there in the area of 9-10lbs and a little gritty but the Sig is somewhere between 5-6 pounds according to the manual and butter smooth.

The only thing I possibly dont like is the top vs. bottom weight ratio being that the slide is still the same Sig metal and the bottom is the plastic so it makes it feel a 'little' top heavy but that is nitpicking.

I would bet that 99.9% of people are going to release ANY trigger 100% vs. using the SRT method in a real life situation. Too many folks live in a fantasy land of thinking they are gonna stand there in the proper Myoob Asad defensive prone position and SRT 6 bad guys one right after another....seriously doubt it.

The subcompact size for concealed carry, the amount of rounds 13, and the smoootthhhh double action trigger in 9mm +P Ranger T-Series is a handsdown winner for me.

It also sucks for the ones that paid 1.5x the current price for the earlier models. A local shop has some listed at $350. This same shop was chosen to liquidate the inventory of a bankrupt shop. They had early versions of the gun for $500. So now they have two of the same guns sitting on the shelf for two different prices.
