I couldn't resist. I am so weak. I just ordered a Sig P6 (the German Police version of the Sig 225, a single stack 9mm). I tried AIM, but they were on back order and my VISA card was cocked & locked, so I called CDNN and pulled the trigger. I should have it Thursday or Friday.
I'll take some pics of the condition and maybe get in a quick trip to the range.
Any suggestions for an IWB holster for this? Any experience shooting one?
Hey, it was a Sig at a price I couldn't say no to.
Now, I have to go and make excuses to my 1911s.:eek:
 
I'm sorry but Kool-Aid comes in only two flavors: Glock and 1911

You guys took the plunge...
 
I got a P6 from CDNN a few weeks ago, and it is stellar. but I don't drink anyone's d*mn koolaid......

And legion3 is wrong, koolaid also comes in Dillon flavor.
 
I shot mine last weekend. No problems at all. Consistently accurate gun. I like it a lot.
 
My CDNN P6 (got it two weeks ago) is easily 90% condition; I doubt that it was ever holstered.
 
Great little pistol. I think you'll love it and when you don't take a look at the price of USED Sig's.... Even used they are still WELL above what you would pay.

You simply can't go wrong with a Sig Sauer and the P6/P225 has a cult following that is growing by the day.

Sig owners don't drink Kool Aid, we drink Champaign. ;)
 
Can't help you with IWB, but my Bianchi Shadow 7 OWB, for a Glock 19/23 fits my P6 like it was molded for it. I love my P6, ain't that pretty but it sure does shoot. BTW I prefer drinking scotch or beer - but not mixed...

(No, I don't have a Glock. Got this as part of a trade where the fella was using this holster for a CZ)
 
I am sure there are "fanboys" devoted to SIGs, but I have noticed over the years that most people tried SIGs after trying other stuff first, and that their appreciation for SIGs grows with time, based on real-world performance. The relatively heavy first trigger pull on the DA/SA models, the high bore axis, and in the early days, the plastic factory grips and lack of a safety lever, seem to be disadvantages to people who have not learned to appreciate SIGs' other qualities. I remember the epithets hurled at the early SIG P220 models, from the fanboys of revolvers, 1911s, and Browning High Powers. The ones who carried P220s in those days were guys who seriously researched their choices, and made educated decisions.
 
I think you're going to love that P6. I have a commercial P225 that is my preferred carry gun, and the rest of the time is now in the safe next to my bed. Accurate, reliable, and easy to shoot well.

I am seriously thinking about picking up a second one so my wife and I can have his 'n' hers.
 
My first SIG was a Browning BDA .45 purchased new in 1980. I've always been a 1911 fan, but I just had to give this odd puppy a try.

I have never, ever regretted it. I used to shoot IPSC in the mid '80s with it and it never, ever hiccuped on me. When the scoffers were busy clearing their FTE, FTF malfunctions with their fancy 1911s, my BDA just kept on ticking. I won my share of matches in my class.

Clearance drills? We don't need no stinkin' clearance drills.

If it don't break, you don't have to fix it. No? I still shoot it now and then and it's as accurate and reliable as ever.

And last weekend, I bought myself a real treat. Upgraded a bit, as it were.

I got a P220 Carry Elite Two-Tone SAO.

I'm in love......... :D
