Does anyone have experience with one of these? Is $325 a good price for one? I am looking for any information and reviews.

Thanks.

$325 is a good price, at least around here. I missed out on one last year and it was selling for $400. I have a couple in .380 and they are great little pistols.

Hi Todd,
$325 is a good price. I bought one for my daughter for her 21st birthday. She's a skinny little thing, and is not an avid shooter, that's why I went for the .32 acp instead of the .380.
It's a typically beautiful made SIG. I put some lighter springs in it for her and shot about 100 rounds through it to break it in. ;)
I hated to give it up, great little pistol.

There are a couple of quirks about it though,

One is minor, there is a lanyard loop sticking through the lower left side grip panel.

Second is rather remarkable for a SIG. There is a manual safety that no other SIG's have. :confused: This threw me at first, I sat there staring at it thinking, "what the heck is wrong with this SIG?" It doesn't distract from the pistol, just weird that's all.

I think it's a reliable and well made shooter and well worth the price your quoted.

The 230 in .32ACP was a contract for the Japanese police. They wanted the lanyard loop and the manual safety.

Japanese? :D

I knew it was a police contract, but I just assumed it was for a European country.
