I took my three .380s to the range today for a shootout. One is going to go, as we don't need three.
My original strategy was to get one for me (the Sig 230 for pocket carrt) and one for my wife (either a Walther PK380 or Sig 250 with a .22 conversion to learn the trigger on.)
But I had a bad day at the range last with the 230 so I decided to shoot all three in one session and put the loser on the block. I can pocket carry my Shield 2.0 and I have enough smaller guns for regular IWB carry.
Anyone want to buy a nice Sig 230?
Both the DA-only 250 and the Walther outshot it today. By a bunch. The other two had much softer recoils, the trigger on the 250, while DAO, is smooth as butter and the Walther in SA was crisp and just right. No problems feeding or ejecting with any of 'em.
I was really rooting for the Sig 230....it's looks PPish, the trigger is nice, the decocker is a plus and it's a Sig.
But I couldn't argue with results and my groups were tighter at 5 and 7 yards and both just felt "better." (I was talking with my smith about machining down the sharp edge on the right side of the trigger guard. For my hands, at least, it got to be an annoyance after a couple of mags, cutting in to my right middle finger.)
I've got my eye on a 9mm slide for the Sig 250 so we'll have .22, .380, and 9. It's a neat pistol, even if a lot of folks dump on it.
