It's user preference. No discernible advantage with one over the other, given the conditions listed. I shoot Glocks more at the moment, so I'd go with what I shoot most.
Heckler & Koch Universal Pistole aka USP because that is what elite units from modern countries use or want to use.Dear THR,
Between Glock 17 and Sig P226, which is a better duty pistol with the following conditions:
A. Pistol is regularly cleaned as and when required.
B. Maximum session is sub thousand rounds.
C. Ergonomics count.
D. Combat Accuracy is important as well as Combat Reliability.
E. After market accessories are NOT important. What comes installed on the gun is important.
F. Consider all G17 models such as C as well as L. Whereas also consider all P226 models such as ELITE, Tactical Opperations, etc.
G. Price is NOT a factor.
Thanks.

If the conditions given favor Sig then why still chose Glock. The conditions given are NOT by design to benefit one pistol over the other, but to reflect and highlight particular requirements of an individual to determine a suitable choice or more desirable option between the two listed.
Very interesting, what made your glock fail?; said:have used both in combat when my life and others has on the line. P226 will always be my first choice over a Glock any Glock. A Glock 17 wouldnt go boom for me when I pulled the trigger and I was lucky my chief did not have Glock. I had no choice in this situation and I personally cleaned and test fired theGlock.
