SigPro 2022

[Mr. Ed]

Tell me about this gun. Is it any good? Is $500 a good price?

[s10rick]

I have a Sig Pro 2340... Very reliable... never had a jam, eats anything I stick in it.

The only con for me is the lack of Grips/accessories for the gun.

Not sure on current market value on the 2022 though...
Really depends on whether it has night sites?
Number of mags?? More than 2?

If the answer to questions 1 and 3 are yes than i believe 500 is good price.

I hear they are great guns. But if I were you, I would wait until the P250 gets approved on the Cali list. The P250 allows you to change calibers, slides, and frame sizes.

Does the Sig 250 have a magazine disconnect? If not, it won't be approved for CA.

It does not, and likely won't ever be on the list.

Since it doesn't have a mag disconnect, he will be waiting for a LONG time before he can get that P250

The SP 2022 has by far one of the best triggers on any pistol you'll ever shoot! I have the 9mm version too, and it is a pleasure to shoot!

You'll not be sorry if you decide to get it!

I've had a SIG Pro SP2022 for about two years now. At first, I was having failures for the slide to lock back. It turns out that I was riding the slide release with my thumb. Since I've changed my grip, I've had no problems.

I agree with PonchoTA, the trigger on my SIG Pro is the best stock SIG trigger that I've felt. The DA is very smooth and seems lighter than most DA triggers that I've felt (Beretta, HK, SIG, S&W). The SA trigger is the same as the SIG classic series. The reset is the same as any stock SIG.

In terms of accuracy, the SIG Pro can outshoot me. I am able to hit steel targets off at 50 yards with relative consistency. I generally practice shooting paper at 50 feet, and I am able to achieve fist sized groups with which I am content.

As far as takedown is concerned, it is similar to taking down a S&W auto or HK USP. It's not overly difficult, but slightly more involved than a classic SIG.

In terms of ergonomics, I love the SIG Pro. After I got used to the placement of the controls, I have fallen in love with it! The SIG Pro just seems to be made for my hand.

In terms of price, $500 would be a good deal if it was local. I purchased mine a few years ago for $475 shipped. For $500 locally, I'd buy another one.

In regards to the P250, be advised that it is a Double Action Only pistol. If you prefer the DA/SA trigger group, then go for a SIG Pro. Then again, they may never become available for CA consumption, so that may be a moot point.

In my opinion, the SIG Pro is SIGs most cost effective offering. The smaller price tag definately doesn't reflect the quality of this pistol. Good luck with your decision!

IMHO, the Sig Pro is the best polymer Sig.

I have had one chambered in .40 for about a year and a half and love it. I have put about 1200 rounds through it with no problems at all and like tannerboy said it can outshoot me. I would consider 500 a good deal since I paid 620 out the door from a local dealer.

It's a steel framed pistol wrapped in a polymer shell. It's NOT a lightweight gun!

I recently purchased the 9mm and love it. I would say that you will struggle to find a better 9mm out there for under $500 brand new (including night sights).

I decided on getting mine over a P226, as the 2022 is discontinued. I noticed more and more places were selling out and I wanted to get one while I still could.

Where are you getting this information? I don't doubt that there may be a few steel inserts in key places (just like in Glocks). But what you are saying is that this is a steel framed gun that is "wrapped" in a polymer shell. So, again, where are you getting this information. I am interested to know. All the information I have seen (and based on my handling of the gun) suggests this is a polymer frame gun.

I got it while holding it in my hand. You can remove most of the hand grip and you can see there is a frame in there. After removing the barrel and slide, you can see the frame extending down into the polymer exterior. The slide even rides on steel railing, not polymer.

I regard a full polymer pistol along the lines of KelTec, Glock, Steyr, etc. This is not one of those.
