Is the Sig P2022 trigger that odd

I traded a glock for a 2014 Sig P2022 about a month ago. Finally was able to get it to range. I had recently provided another, older p2022 to a family friend for personal protection while he was working in remote locations. I remember enjoying shooting that pistol.
So I wanted another 40 and this 2022 presented itself. I was happy to make the trade. Not a big glock fan, but I know they are accurate and go bang. But I prefer hammers, even though my daily carry is a PPS.
Probably explained myself too much.
In any event, at the range - first shot at about 15 yards or so hits bullseye. Cool. No such luck after that, but I am OK with that. But the trigger seemed sloppy. Nothing precise or crisp about it. My only other sigs are an M400 and a P238 (wife's). It had been a while since I shot my previous 2022, but don't recall the trigger being that "odd." I had set aside 50 reloads for testing both the 2022 and my reloads, so did not shoot any more and switched to some of my tried and guns for my range day. Also gave a gun I had previously dismissed another shot - my baby rock. Got to like it better.
 
I had the occasion to shoot at least a couple of different SP2022. I don't remember any strange feeling about the SA trigger. Probably not the same clear break of my P226 AL SO but lighter which surprised me. DA trigger also smoother and lighter than my P226 (yes, I hate to say it). Not as accurate.
The 9mm SP2022 is also a very soft shooter.

I did not realize until recently that I could simply purchase a barrel and some mags and have another nine in my collection. But will hold off on that until I am happy with the gun. A couple of more range days should tell.
 
Yea just shoot it more at the range and determine what you really think.
I like DA/SA guns, but I admit the triggers are usually too 'free-floating' (if that makes sense) for me to be too accurate. Feels like they move side to side too much, versus a Glock or 1911 trigger which goes straight back (Both of which I'm very proficient with).
But I will continue using DA/SA, because I like everything else about them. I prefer being able to have the hammer DOWN, rather than Cocked and locked (although the 1911 was originally designed to be carried hammer down. Practice is necessary for this however)
I wouldn't feel inadequately armed with a SP2022, but if it's really not your thing anymore then so be it. But shoot it more though. Give it your 'mark' and try your reloads in it.
 
I only have an example of one to pull from, but my brothers 2022 has about the nicest stock DA/SA trigger I've felt on a Sig, Legion excluded.

That said, apart from some worked over CZs I have never felt there was much crisp about a DA/SA trigger in SA mode. No real "wall" to speak of, just the rolling break that you may or may not like.

Me? I prefer a crisp wall, and prefer Glocks and SAO triggers.
 

All my Glocks have a clear wall that breaks clean and an easy to find reset. Some of them break cleaner than some of my 1911s, just with more take up to the wall and a heavier break

I don't see your point.

Edit: also my Sig 226 SAO. Great trigger but the break isn't a crisp wall, more of a smooth roll. Took me some time to learn and I'd still say my Gen 4 Glock 21 has a nicer break, even though the Sig is very nice.

I'm pretty sure the eye roll(s) have to do with "the wall"...because that was also my first reaction. :confused::confused::confused::confused:

While I can shoot a gun with a wall, there is nothing worst than working with a client who stops at the wall and then jerks the trigger. A smooth let off is much more conducive to good trigger management
 
Pistolpositive,

I have a rather mixed collection, and if I shoot a gun that has been in storage for a while, I find I often need a second range trip before I re-fall-in-love with it.

I'm not good enough to be a natural good shot, so sometimes I don't blend perfectly with a "new" gun.

Might take a little warming up. Dry fire it and take it in a few more trips and see if you warm back up to it.
 
Like JeeperCreeper, it take a few mags before I reacclamate myself to a different handgun than I've been shooting for some time. They're all different with a different feel and a different trigger pull. My SP2022 trigger felt "mushy" and with a long pull a few weeks ago, but after a bit, I adjusted to the pull and all was well.

Yeah from what I recall, long DA trigger and a pretty long reset on this 2022. I have other DA/SA pistols and am liking my CZ P07 much more than this gun which I think is a pretty close - well maybe the omega trigger system with a couple of Cajun upgrades might not make for such a good comparison. My CZ2075 (RAMI) with all stock would probably be a fair comparison, but like the cz trigger much more. a sig guy pointed to a replacement trigger at https://www.armorycraft.com/product-page/sig-sauer-pro-p2022-dual-adjustable-flat-trigger that looks interesting. No instructions for installing.
In any event, I loaded up another 50 rounds of 180 JHP for another range trip, hopefully this weekend. So will pay more attention to it. Might really limit my weapons for the trip - maybe just it and the p07 and the RAMI.
