    So The SIG P227 Is Still Gonna Be A POS Right...?

    Never before have I wanted a handgun that I have so much "fair warning" about. SIG finally comes out with a double stack .45 P series. It has everything I want in a high capacity .45 from ergos to light rails.

    But every time I look at it I think COHEN. Haven't heard of any QC developments or improvements at SIG. Still the same right?

    The instructor of the class I just attended spoke very highly of it. He didn't seem to be a propaganda type as he had very good things to say about the PPQ and some other handguns/rifles I asked him about. I have shot one of my buddies that has about 2k rounds through it with no problems reported. I can't speak directly to the Sig related problems as all mine have had no issues. I hope to buy one later this year myself. I haven't run them as hard as I'm sure some have, but as long as I have used the sig factory mags they have been fine.

    My SIG handguns run great. I believe the post-2012 handguns are good to go. I have heard nothing but good things about the newer SIG handguns. Personally they are my favorite handguns to shoot.

    Having said that, I've had more than a couple "revered" pistols go tits up from normal use.

    I say give it a go. If you don't like it, sell the damn thing to me.

    I have two: a regular and a equinox. They both work real well. Note: I am a sig fan.

    I have a 229 40 and 226 Combat I bought within the last few years. (2011, actually). About 6800 rounds between the two. Not one failure. Both passed the "2000 challenge."

    The 229 sits next to me at night.

    Just sayin'.

    Don't believe everything you read on the Interwebs, the dumbass to noise ratio is very high.

    There's nothing wrong with the P227.

    The Indiana State Police are issuing the P227. From all accounts they seem to like it. I know one of the instructors that is travelling around the state for the transition training, and he said that he has not seen a malfunction.
