Sigs - Single Stack?

[Waingro]

Are Sigs single stack? How thin are they compared to Glocks?

[Crazed_SS]

I have a P220 and I think it is a big *** gun for being a single stack pistol that only honds 8 rounds. I'd say the grip is noticeably fatter than a Glock.

[HeHateMe]

My 225 is single stack and it's very thin, nothing compared to my Glocks.

Some Sigs are single stack, some aren't

IIRC....

Single-Stack Sigs:
P210 9mm
P220 .45/.38 Super
P225 9mm
P230 .380/.32
P232 .380
P239 9mm/.40SW/.357Sig
P245 .45

Double-Stack Sigs:
P226 9mm/.40SW/.357Sig
P228 9mm
P229 9mm/.40SW/.357Sig
P250 9mm/.40SW/.357Sig/.45
PRO

There are thin grips available for most of these. The P220, though a single-stack magazine, has thicker grips so that the overall size of the grip is similar to the P226. These grips can be replaced.

Sig PRO and Sig P250 are double-stack, too.

If you have relatively short fingers like I do, then the "short trigger" does work well on the double stack models.

[aplinker]

The 9mm and .40 Sigs aren't particularly big.

You should just go handle them.

The short trigger does change the feel a lot, if you have small hands.

I forgot, what is it they say about men with small hands?

I have seen the .380 ones, but the PPK is smaller and I heard better things, what is the most compact normal Sig design?

P239.

The Sig P232 is vastly superior to the PPK.

Eh, I'm still not a fan of the european magazine release.... but the P230/P232 does interest me.

I tried out the P239 in 9mm and was not impressed enough to want to add it to the collection.

[ghideon]

I bought the P239 for my gal at the time. Replaced the panels with rubber wrap arounds, and she really liked the gun. With the new P2000 in 9mm, I prefer that over the P239, but it's still a great compact 9mm.

I've always been interested in the P232, tried it out and it gave me a little bite. Fun to shoot, but not as comfortable as the P239 and many other guns.

[aplinker]

I want to like the P239... it's one of those "not quite right" guns, to me.

I'd rather carry something else (since it's a carry gun).

The P220 isn't terribly large for a .45 pistol. Some of the newer sig hard grips are larger (I notice because they fit my hand even better). The hogues are a touch slimmer. If trigger reach is an issue, you can put the short trigger on it. My G/F has no problem firing the P220, and she has pretty small hands (std. grips and trigger).

The P225 is great for small hands- which is why I sold mine..

You are also forgetting the ultimate single stack sig- P210

1) Some are single stack and some are double stack.

2) SIGS has a little thicker, if not as thick, slide. The frame depends on what grips you put in there: If you use Nills Grips, it's just as thick. If you use factory, it may be a little tad thinner. If you use Hogue or Pachmayr, it may be a little thinner. One thing I admit is that SIG pistols have more comfortable grips than Glocks. I am short-fingered and I never had problems shooting these pistols in DA mode especially the larger P220 (Single Stack 45).
