The "Sig"ness- vol 1.

[shootersix]

Thanks. Saw that when I was surfing today, but didn't have time to read it. I have it bookmarked.

So I read that blog post years ago (10 I think), I saw a browning bda in 9mm (if you don’t know, it was actually made by sig, and the frame was cerakoted gray, it looked good and the shop that had it didn’t have it long, but because it was coated there was no way of knowing if it was coated to look good, or if the previous owner read Bruce’s blog an realized no one would buy it if they saw the gold showing on the rails…so I passed!

The second I passed on was a nickel (factory nickel!) plated 228, with night sights made in 91 if I remember correctly, I asked if I could field strip it, he said “only if you can put it back together!” (It was at a pawn shop) as I slid the slide off, I saw gold on the rails, so I reassembled it and said thanks but I’ll pass!

I purchased my German 226 before I read the blog, but luckily for me, the rails are perfect!

Apologies if I asked this previously but on the FDE 22x gun, are you using the CHW RMR adapter plate ? If so, how's that working for you?

and that question is open to others as well about what plates, if any folks are using on their 22x guns to run RMR footprint sights.

Thank you

I’m using a C&H precision plate, it’s solid and so far no issues with it…..

Thanks. So far that's 2 recommendations for it. Think I'll go that way myself.

No matter what brand of gun if C&H makes a plate that’s what I use.

Good to know. I talked to them at NRAAM but have never used their products.

On the P22x Legion series appears it's a "filler" plate vs adapter, so I was curious if it was gtg.

Likely saves me buying another optic.

you’re doing it wrong!!

We can't let the CZ folks have all the fun, can we?

My P320 dressed in carry form with shortened grip .

Now that looks like a sexy gun. The thumb imprint looks like it'd fit just about any hand tbh

Well you’d think that. It sure looks that way. But for me, it actually started me off with some bad grip habits. All my 320’s now are AXG frames and I don’t miss that thumb thing one bit.

 

[sairax]

I could see that too. Too much standardization never helped anybody

I am lucky enough to have a couple P230s and they are guns that just make you smile when one is in hand. Tried and true design, quality built and just nice...

The Sig P230 is proof SIG can make a good looking gun.. pretty much everything after that is proof they just choose not to.

"Why make good looking guns, they keep buying the ugly ones"

Wasn’t the 232 like the 230 with improved feed ramp.

Interesting, that's why they say there's no accounting for taste.

Still not sure who they is though.

I look at the picture and think 'gross'. Ifn it weren't fer poor taste I wouldn't have no taste at all.

Gross?

Sigh.

I'm kinda with you. Never been a big fan of the PPK-ish look. Don't hate it, but don't get particularly excited about it, either. I'm also not a big fan of blowback actions.

I think the P22X guns are pretty aesthetically appealing in a traditional and confident sort of way. They look exactly like a serious handgun is supposed to look.
