Sigs are nice.
HKs are nice.
CZ's are best.

Hmm, some of us might switch from Sig to HK if they made the the damn HK45 more widely available in California....

[Nefarious]

Just for curiosity, why are there so many Sigs for sale ....

I wondered the same exact thing. Im in the market for another handgun, and was looking at an XD, 1911, Glock ... and couldnt help notice all the Sigs for sale

I was authorized to carry Sigs about 3 months ago. So, I just sold my HK USP45 and bought 2 Sig P220 45s(P220R and P220 Combat) and one P226 9mm. They fit my hands much better than full size USP.

[Beelzy]

The simple reason is that Sig has a yitload of fresh new dealers and they
need to move product.

Thanks.

Well that cleared it up.

The thing that bugs me about the Sigs is the de-cocker seems to be in a place that is easy to hit when getting ready to shoot. You can switch between several guns HK, Springfield, Walther, as the safeties and de-cocker seem to be in the same place, but not the case with Sig.

Thanks for your comments.

Had my P 220 since early 87, defended my family with it twice and it's never leaving me - never.

That said, I have a 1911 that shoots rings around it, but for a "nightstand" gun, it's perfect.

Honestly, I shoot both. While my comments above against HK were in jest, I like both the same. The SIG P-series decocker isn't really an issue as it doesn't get in the way for me, however the slidestop is usually an issue in location. It is for me as well as other high thumb shooters who tend to ride the slidestop thus causing a failure to slidelock. It doesn't bother me anymore since I just accept it, but it's been known to happen.

The HK's safety/decocker system on the USP is nice. However, for high thumb shooters again, the location is too far rearward for a comfortable grip. The bore axis is noticeably higher than the P-series IMO, so pointability isn't as natural. Lastly, riding the safety has caused me to decock unexpectedly. Quite frustrating when you're expecting a single action trigger and get a DA.

I also prefer the stock sights on the SIG P-series. The stock USP sights suck. Trigger on the HK is heavier, longer trigger stroke in DA, grittier and stacks more.

I think I prefer my P226 over my USPf based on the accounts above. YMMV.

They are upgrading to HKs!

I knew this would get a response! Just for the record, I own both HKs and Sigs. I really enjoy shooting both and love them equally.

I can see how to some, the location of the decocker on Sigs would bother them. And some may even ride it. On the other hand, on my P2000, though I love the locationof the decocker near the hammer, hearing that snap or "hammer drop" sound when decocking is almost freaky and unnerving.
But you do get used to it. The P2000 is one of my all time favorite handguns, even better than the P30 which I have shot multiple times.

why are there so many BMWs for sale if they are so supposed to be so good? I am a SAAB fan and see a few SAABs here and there, but the BMWs are everywhere, car lot after car lot. There are so many for sale I had to ask, what's up?

If you are a BMW fan sorry for this question.

[Rob454]

maybe simply peole get bored with the gun or they want to upgrade to something else.

Ah ha! I figured it out. There's more SIGs out there than HKs, hence more SIGs for sale as a result because they're more popular than HKs.

[Moonclip]

There is a lot of SigP6's on the market right now is part of it. Out of over 100 handguns I own only 2 Sig Sauers and no HK currently, I need to correct that.

SIG is spelled with all capitals as they are initials.
