Not a big fan of Glock so happy to see they were not picked but I have never owned a Sig, will have to check one out next time I get a chance.

I've given my up vote for the Sig P320 as the MHS winner on other posts. No matter how good the other guns are, the Sig is the clear choice for the MHS. It's as though Sig took the MHS requirements and built a pistol to meet them. They added a manual thumb safety to the existing P320 and met every spec. The thumb safety need is arguable, but the 320 is as safe as a revolver without it.
4 possible pistol sizes - full, carry, compact, subcompact, 3 calibers, each with 3 grip sizes all changeable without tools.
I've had my Compact for the last 7 months. Carry 17+1 daily w/ two 15 rd spares. Absolutely love it. Load it, round chambered, holster it and you're ready to go. As fast & safe as a revolver, but with DAO trigger pull. Feels like 3/4 lbs trigger max out of the box. I owned a Beretta 92F from the month they adopted it and I love the Colt .45 1911. Fired the .45 on the USMC Team & went Distinguished with it in '78. But I favor the Sig. Try one.

MSgt George Cater - Thank You "Top" I try to keep it @ 98 % all the time. I still have the combat grip but, you guessed it....I added a finger groove Pach grip...!!!

I'm going to have to check it out- the only problem I have had in the past is with is pulling the slide back (arthritis). It just got too painful for me and I down graded from the 45 to a 9mm and a 40 Cal (surprisingly the 40 cal has less kick than the 9mm)

GySgt Melissa Gravila - What load in your .40's ? Usually a .40 is real squirrely....except in a heavyweight like my P91 I run 165's in it. I also use an RIP round every other one they have 115 grain SCHP's that fragment, very nasty....Even my Sig jumps around in .40 cal.

Sigs are fine firearms. I don't like the 9mm and not sold on the .40 either. I am old school and love the close in effects of the 100 yr old plus, .45. Nothing says "kiss my ass" like a .45!

Sigs are great, a little on the heavy side being all steel. I have a P239 in .40, great for a back up ankle....it is compact.

I shoot frangible (really should be called fragable) ammo so I plan on running out but also plan on being the one telling the story. I agree though I would use my Kimber to beat them if they were still standing. Ruger is also one of my favorite makes, I have a 357 Mag revolver.
