I'm unsure of which Sig comes next. Really like the idea of getting a trade in and having it coated like Ricks guns. Or maybe a 229SSE and go G10 grips instead of the rosewood which look awesome but are thick.
Handled a 320X5 and gave it some thought but I'm a little nervous about such a light trigger pull striker gun in a holster and honestly the gun itself just doesn't really speak to me. One thing I am finding is the front fiber sight while easier to pick up is perhaps a little tougher to get absolutely perfect. Issue is it's a much smaller diameter than the rear dots and the thinner blade while not obscuring the target does leave more room for error in left/right alignment. One thing that is beyond doubt is this whole learning to shoot a pistol business is a lot of fun. It's like when I first learned to drive or ride a bike. in a fairly short time you go from being a danger to everyone around you to not entirely incompetent. I can see the journey from 'not entirely incompetent' to 'good' is a long one though.

btw Eric as registered Legion owners we get discounts with Sig. I emailed my rep about having Sig do xray3 sights and the action enhancement package on my 225 and they would give 15-20% off.

The 320X5 is fantastic and will hold up to a lot of abuse! Haven't had that feeling of nervousness with the trigger on the 320X5 that you're describing. All my friends with the aftermarket glock triggers have no issues as well. You'll be fine!
This is our custom cerakoted 320X5 after being launched from the trebuchet  Fired afterwards with no issues! You can see the broken beavertail and slight damage to the frame here. Sweet, glad to know they're giving discount on work at the custom shop!! I haven't needed to get anything done, but I'll take a look!

I've owned a Sig 220 for many years. It is one of the "Americanized" ones with the push button mag release. I bought it used (police trade in) about 35 years ago. Fits my hand just right! Over the years I have acquired 4-5 of the single stack magazines so only having 7 rds at a time is not an issue. It would be one of the last to go!

Obviously a bit of a change-up WRT to training/practice (condition 1/thumb safety vs. de-cocker, etc.), but the (Legion-only)SAO trigger is pretty phenomenal right out of the box. |
