Sig 2022 vs SR9C for Carry

[Runt1122]

I have a 2022 now and carry it in a Supertuck. It is not bad to carry, but I have always had my eye on the SR9C. I have looked at the measurements and they tell me the 2022 is slightly bigger. The biggest difference being the length of the barrel. Has anyone carried both and can comment on if the SR9C would be a better CCW?

I have both of these and prefer the SR for IWB carry as it is slimmer than the Sig and is a little smaller w/ the 10 rd magazine.. The SR has become my every day carry in a Khloster.

SR would be better for a CC.
2022 is a full size gun... same size as a p226.

Never owned the Sig but I have owned a SR9c and it was a very easy to carry pistol. My gripe with it was the thumb safety.

p226 4.4" barrel
sp2022 3.9" barrel

The P226 is a little bigger. The frame is bigger and the grip feels bigger. I think the SP2022 is considered a midsize or compact.

Based on the specs, the Sig is considerably larger/heavier:

Length	7.4in	6.85in
Width	1.4in	1.27in
Height	5.7in	4.61in
Barrel Length	3.9in	3.4in
Empty Weight	29oz	23.4oz
Rounds	10/15	10/17

I used to own a SR40c and do own a Sig PRO 2340, having carried both OWB and IWB, the Sig carry's A LOT bigger than the Ruger. You will definitely find the SR9c a better CC choice.
