New Sig today

[longrider]

A gentleman brought me this beautiful Limited Edition P226 today. Never fired, slide only slightly moved since leaving the factory in 2008 to removed the orange flag.

Nice. Assume it'll stay a collector's piece? I'm old fashioned I guess - still like the 9mm. Right bullet it'll get the job done.

Oh, yes...it will remain as is - unless someone brings me some significant American dollars, it shall reside in my safe.

I shoot a lot of 45 acp...but as they say the "nine is fine"- bullet placement, smooth is fast.

Many folks cannot miss fast enough!

I think we should have to try it to test it better.

I agree the Sigs are great pistols, I carry one every day. However one of my friends that shoots with me competitively, not you average cop, shot a bad guy a few months ago, 11 times. He shot him in the chest four times, both hips trying to stop him, and several to the abdomen. The 11th shot was to the head at point blank range. This was with their issued 9mm 148 grain Federal Hydroshocks. I've shot a lot of game with 9mm, .357 Mag, 45 ACP, 45 Long Colt and .44 mag. No handgun is powerful enough to suite me. But as a collectors item Sig makes a great one. My favorite is the P210.
