220 vs P 90

[High Planes Drifter]

I chose Sig 220. Most Ruger I have seen have had issues with hollow points. My P95 had it, my older brother had a P89 years back that had it, and a close friend has a P345 that has it. I'm not trying to start a big flame war here, Im just stating my experience and observation. I have yet to find a round that my Sig wont digest.

I love my P90 and trust it with my life, but the Sig is definitely on my wish list. Had I not caught the 1911 bug earlier this year, I'd have one sitting in my safe now. I agree with the poster that said comparing the Sig and the Ruger is a bit inane, though...like comparing a Ford and a Jaguar....

I have a P226 in 9mm and P90 in 45. Both are great guns. One costs much more and is polished up. The other is rough and tough and will save you a few bucks. I would get the sig now if you can and get a Ruger when you can.

I know what was wrong... it was a loose nut behind the trigger...


Now, now, Please refrain from refering to me or my family as "loose nuts." While humorous it could offend.

I think it is funny that the gun snobs feel the need to put down a better product that cost less than theirs did. It makes them feel justified in spending the extra money.

I knew the flames would start.....sigh. It is hard to beleive that a $400 Ruger could out shoot a $800 SIG or $2500 Ed Brown. Whether it is hard to beleive or not, does not make it less true. The truth is the Ruger P90 may be the best DA .45 auto there is (when price is considered).

I am not flaming your choice in weapons. I am merely sharing my experience with the aforementioned brands.

You guys are funny

If this would have hit the markets at a higher price, many would be stating it is the finest DA/SA 45acp. But because of the lower price tag, it must be junk. Truth be told, the gun is as/more accurate than the Sig P220 and if put head to head, I would say more reliable and durable than the Sig.
I have yet to hear of Ruger frames cracking or the rails splitting or anything.

Sig is by far best out of the box. I like Rugers but they aint no Sig.

P220 and it's not even close. the poll results should answer all of your questions.

The Ruger makes a dandy door stop too...

Kind of comparing apples to oranges. Both are quality handguns. The 220 is more finely crafted, better in terms of trigger and, most likely accuracy. The Ruger, at (usually) several hundred dollars less is a good gun for the money. Heavy duty (both in capability and actual weight). Of course, I go for the Sig. But if I tried the Ruger and found that I could live with the nuances of the gun and I didn't have the budget for the Sig, I'd would turn the Ruger down.

I've shot both, the ruger works, I now own the SIG. It's really no comparison.

220 to shoot, 90 to carry.
