Ok, we can all agree (i assume) that sig Saur is a top notch manufacturer and that sig firearms are quality pieces that we would all trust out lives too.
However, what is the deal with Sig's ergonomics? I for one do not like having my sight picture an inch and a half (exxageration) above the web of my strong hand. I would have to say, that of all of the firearms I have shot, point shooting with a sig is relatively hard....it takes me more time to line up a shot with a Sig handgun than just about any other....(sig 380's excluded).
Also, Sig's "high" bore axis makes for a very "snappy" recoil.....whereas Glocks, Steyrs, and other similar handgun's low axis makes for soft recoil, and quicker second shot target acquisition.
I am a big fan of Sig in general....I think the 380 model is the best 380 on the market...as far as reliability, ergonomics and fit and finich are concerned....but their full size, and compact models (226, 228) are just a chore to shoot...IMHO...
I wont even mention the price....good god...you would think they are made out of gold.
Dont get me wrong...if someone "gifted" me a Sig, I would love it, and keep it....but I think they are about due for a full makeover...Lower the bore axis and the site picture...and drop the price by about 100 dollars....
Ok...maybe it is just the 5 glasses of wine talking....but "RANT" is officially over.
