I know this has been a touchy lately, but I have had personal experience with it and am not pleased.
Sig is among my favorite make of semiauto handguns. I own a 220, 226, two 229s and a 239.
My latest two additions, a 229 and 239, chambered in .40 S&W and .357 SIG, respectively, both have an unacceptable amount of slide to frame play (IMO). So much so, that they actually rattle if you quickly move the pistols. It is very noticeable, and I do not believe I am being "nitpicky."
I have done searches here, on Glock Talk and Sigforum lately, and it appears that this is an often cited complaint lately.
I have not contacted Sig yet, but from other threads I have read, those that have were told by Sig representatives that this a normal condition, and that it won't affect reliability or accuracy.
Some people are satisfied with this response and some aren't, I guess.
I fall in the latter category because I don't understand why two of my Sigs have this slide play, while none of my others do.
Is this more common is recently produced or newer model Sigs? Has anyone else noticed this?
Thanks.
