Tonight I went to range and decided to rent a few pistols I haven't tried out yet. I recently bought my first 9mm (SW Shield) but wanted to try out some full size pistols. I recently had tried Glock 19 which I found to group decent and be a decent shooter even with the stock sights. So tonight I first tried a Beretta M9. I found myself unimpressed with the single action trigger pull and the group left a lot to be desired especially compared to my small Shield. Next figured I'd try out the pistol that replace it the Sig M17. Holy cow did that pistol impressed me. First mag I shot a ragged 2 inch hole at 15 yards with exception of 1 flyer which was me going a little too quick and jerk the trigger. The accuracy difference between these two pistols amazed me with the Glock I shot before being somewhere between little more towards the Sig.
This brings me to the discussion I wish to start. What is Sig doing to get so much more accuracy out of their pistols? I can't say it's the trigger. Though nice it's not really much different than the Glock and certainly not a 1911. Sights are nice but sights alone make that big a difference? I m not so sure... So is it the barrel, ergonomics, maybe a little of everything? Give me your opinions or expertise on the topic.
