Title: P250
Post by: bluesman001 on August 26, 2011, 04:31:53 PM
After hours of review online (mainly from Nutnfancy and Hickock45) I picked up a Sig P250 used from a LGS.  The intent is to use this as my concealed carry weapon.

There are others I would like and prefer, but this one felt so good in my hand - even better than the Glocks and XD in the same used price category.  I may eventually grab a PF9 or similar for lighter carry, but overall I am very happy with the P250.  Took it out to shoot about 50 rounds of Blazer and found that I shot a little low-center and low-left-center.

One of my Co workers bought one.
It did not get a fair trial, another of my co workers was trying out his new M&P Pro .40
The P 250 shot OK but compared to the M&P the trigger flat out sucked.

The issues I've had with the P250 is:

If I'm buying a Sig I want metal not polymer.

If I'm buying a Sig I want a traditional trigger.

I had 2, both with some of the worst triggers I've ever felt. Neither would even register on my timney scale. It's a shame because they have good ergonomics and seem pretty well made. I've heard they've improved but I'd be hard pressed to try another. I like polymer Sigs, I have both a 2022 and a 290 and really like both. The 2022 is really underrated, I bought it for $369 new and it's one of my better shooting stock pistols.

My trigger is smooth throughout pull - and like many have said online is similar to DAO wheelguns.  It does take getting used to.  But then I have to get used to no external safety and no Hammer and no more da/sa (in military we had 1911 and M9).
