Beretta m9 vs Sig Sauer 226

[davesig9]

I was just carious overall what would be a better choice? I seem to like the Sigs more.

That really comes down to personal preference and does the pistol fit your hand. Spec wise they are both very much alike; size, weight and capacity.

If anything, it might come down to price as the Beretta is much cheaper than the Sig.

I don't think you could go wrong with either.

I usually go with what fits my hand the best. If possible, shoot both before deciding.

The Sig actually outperformed the Beretta during the Military Trails slightly.

As indykid stated above it comes done to how much you would like to spend...

Personally the Sig "works" better for me...

That's right. Refresh my memory. We wanted to locate some missiles in Italy or something at the time didn't we?

LOL...

What are you going to use it for, night stand gun or your personal carry weapon.

The Sig would be an easier gun to conceal and carry than the Beretta.

 

[cosermann]

LOL...

I'm serious. I'll see if if can find it.

Edit:
Nuts. All I can find are these references. Not definitive.

In all fairness, the Beretta is cheaper and very close in terms of performance.

Pick what you like and fits your budget.

I handled and shot both including others before purchasing my sigs. For me the sig fit my hands better than any of the others. I have shot just as well with other brands but the sig feels the most natural to me and I believe that is a very important component to shooting.

 

[davesig9]

Yea I held a few different sigs , I like the 226 alot. It will be my everday carry to by the way.

 

[Shay]

Both guns work, but in my opinion the Sig is a better design.

 

[Jross1]

The sig felt more solid and gave me a feeling of a quality shot time and again.

 

[Colt556]

I like the Sig 228 better than either of your picks. But if I had to pick then it would be the 226 over the Beretta.

Without a doubt.



With that being said, they both fit my hand and I prefer the 226.

Get both!

Both are excellent weapons. I own both and shoot both regularly. I will say I like my P226 a bit more but I shoot better with the 226 so that makes my decision hands down. Both are very reliable weapons. You can't go wrong with either of the two.
