the p320 i think its called.  so will this be a huge thing for sig?  its kinda what the p250 should have been.  i wonder if it will be a flop or a great idea.  im not too into the whole modular thing, but i guess if its solid and reliable i wouldnt care.  im just wondering what it will look like and if it will have a lower bore axis and still look good like a sig should

 

thoughts?

In my experience something designed to do everything is rarely great at anything, so I am not expecting much.

 

Hopefully Sig cracked the code this time. It has to be better than the P250 abortion....

it's kind of funny.  i like sig. and am a sig fan. but there always seemed to be two things that bothered me about sigs, besides that they keep changing what was a totally solid design

 

1.  the slide profiles between the models.  the p224, p229, p220, p226, and p227 should all have the same slide profiles with just more slide in front of the dust cover and/or longer grips.  this is something glock seemed to do correctly.  the fact that they changed the p229 AGAIN and didnt fix this is a huge mistake for me.  there is no reason a p229 shouldnt work with just extra room in the front in a holster molded for a p226.  

 

2.  the modular pistol idea.  it just seems "cheap" to me.  i guess i need to see the mechanics behind it but it seems like its setup to be less reliable as its engineering a feature that doesnt add to the reliability or function

As a ex P250 owner...I couldn't agree more.

Sig's commitment to the platform was perfunctory at best and the P250 still remains the "Red headed stepchild" of the line. Now there was nothing bad or cheap about the gun..just nothing very inspiring or exciting about it either and it still languishes on the fringes of the hand gun spectrum.

Trigger was horrible,mags expensive,no upgrade parts,interchange kits rare and expensive and as much as I wanted to like the gun,I couldn't wait to dump it.

Hopefully Sig with commit to this new firearm before it too ends up as a dusty secondary firearm or truck gun.

I blame Ron Cohen and his stupid Isreali inspired ideas. After ruining Kimber he went to Sig and their product has gotten gimmicky and their QC/QA has declined drastically... He is the worst.

+1. We await the shitstorm.

You mean you don't like the Equinox pimp-gat? Clearly you don't operate enough...

Lol... Operators be operatin'

 

im just glad i got my two sigs when they were still mid-transition.  both mine are at least american guns on german frames

I fell for the sig hype when I first got into guns. Bought the compact as my first off duty then the sub compact kit, then every other xchange kit in all calibers. I have the entire p250 collection. Curious to see what this brings

Linky no goody.....

weird.  maybe they took the link down.  it had a video on the p320.  essentially here is what i got from it

 

looks almost exactly like a p250

fully ambidextrous

option trigger safety (like Glock)

does not require pulling the trigger to field strip

will come in 9mm, 40, and 357 sig day 1.  45 to follow

night sights standard

But the SEALS use Sig's!!

i've taken poops that look better than that. kinda reminds me of a tokarev crossed with a glock. sig, i am disappoint.

It actually looks like the P250 so I'm confused....is it DA/SA now along with the trigger safety?Otherwise why produce yet another disappointing polymer hand gun ?

It looks very front heavy.

Looks like a Colt 1902.

 

And why is the slide release exactly where most people's thumb wants to be.

 

I'll go hug my old P239 and tell it it will be ok. I'll try to to sound convincing and not let it see me cry.

It's striker fired. No hammer

Again like the P250...

The P250 is DAO.

The P250 is DAO.

I know.... I once owned a P250 9mm compact, now long traded.

Now you have me confused. Sigs are normally da/sa. The 250 is dao. The p320 is striker fired like a glock. Three totally different systems. People have been hoping for striker fired sigs and HKs for a long time

whatever it is. it will probably be lackluster. im not offering up my money to be the first to own one. a year or 2 down the road if the reviews are solid and the design proves itself maybe.

I never had hands on a 250 but I always thought that there were striker fired guns. Are they not?

 

Anyway, striker fired guns (Glocks, XDs, and M&Ps) are technically considered "double action only".

P250 is DAO with hammer. Wouldn't striker fired be closer to SA since you have to rack the slide to "cock" it first

Striker fired guns are only partially cocked. In the case of M&P and XDs, the striker is like ~90% cocked, with the trigger press finishing the last 10% and the releasing the striker. With the Glocks the striker is like ~60%-70% cocked, with the trigger press doing the rest and releasing the striker.
