Sig 320 vs Glock

[rebelsooner]

Thought it would be a worthy topic. I've have scoured the net reading and watching videos talking to many people including some LEO's, one of which is a close friend and it truly seems split other than the die hards who will only recommend their brand.

I was set on the cz and now I've put the breaks on it and I am now considering the two. If I went with glock, I would get the 17. It fits better and points better for me. But the sig is nice as well and seems to be gaining momentum. The same was said about the m&p and it seems to have dropped off for many reasons. It'll be for home/car/classes and maybe ccw. If I get the sig, it'll be the carry or concealed version.

Anyone have any thoughts or comments for the two? I had a g19 and sold it and have limited experience with the others. Is the g17 still good to go?

Thanks in advance

Glock for me. Or HK.

Sig, as a company, has just totally turned me off badly over the years.

I would agree, especially with some of the other platforms but it seems their striker is a turn for them.

If it fits and points better for you (and you shoot it better), get the Glock. No contest.

I think the 320 concept is cool, and the trigger is sweet. I enjoy shooting them. But the reliability, Gen 4 texture, grip, and part and mag availability and price hooks me on the Glocks.

After 40 or so years of shooting 1911s, I've been trying to switch over to glock over the last several years. I truly think the g17 is one of the finest combat handguns on the planet. My EDC is a g26.
Having said that, I must also say that shooting a glock has always been a battle. No other pistol or revolver has ever been as difficult to shoot as my damn glocks. I can - with a lot of effort - shoot POA=POI, but those SOBs truly do want to shoot low & left:)
I've been wanting to explore sigs with the hope of dropping my glocks. I want 9mm, and I'm 6'5" and 280#, so I can EDC the "carry" version of the 320 with no problem. (I carry my g26 with a g19 mag with no problem.). So - I, too, am interested in 320 feedback.
To complicate matters, I could even see going the 229/Legion route. For a variety of reasons, I am also interested in 229 vs 320 accuracy out to +/- 75m.
Looking forward to the comments and dicussions.

The 320 should clean up those low/left issues. I'm 6'5 300# and use the large frame, it's a tack driver no matter how hard you crank on the grip. I was told it's because the FCU isn't actually connected to the frame like a Glock/m&p.

I'm not much help as far as the 229 vs 320 as I split time between my 228 and 320c

I've been a Glock guy since my mid-teens. It's all we really had until the last couple of years. I bought two SIG P229s. The most recent, which I still have, is a 9mm Scorpion TB. I will likely carry it more if I can get a holster more akin to my Glock17/19 INCOG instead of the Alien Gear IWB that I have. I love the Scorpion, but I have the wrong holster for my skinny butt.

I can't move away from Glocks, though. In case of a local breakdown or national SHTF situation, the majority of law enforcement are running 9mm Glocks. I look at commonality and reliability in that respect. I will agree that the Glocks love shooting low and left. It's driving a friend up the wall now. I'm searching for a new Gen4 19 to buy now.

But, the 320 also has me intrigued... I'm waiting for more information and something close to the MHS model.

While I only have 626 rounds through my 320 at this point, I have had very good performance. It eats 115, 124, 147gr be they Gold Dots, HSTS, Blazer Aluminum, or Monarch Steel case. I have been running Bill Drills and El Prez drills on timers and there isn't anything that holds the 320 back. And the brass is ejected firmly and goes to the right every time--which is a nice plus. The trigger seemed weird at first with a little double click when dry firing. It went away some time in the first 200 rounds. I haven't bothered cleaning it since the second outing.

Could there be a "break my Sig 320" thread coming?

Same here, I can shoot 200 rounds with my Glock 19 and towards the end I get reasonably consistent. Lay off a week or two and even dry firing in between and it's like starting all over again. Never had that problem with my 1911's. I am still searching for the secret way to hold my mouth to be consistent with the Glock. It is the most frustrating firearm I have ever shot.

I would argue that the SIG is probably more reliable (or at least not hitting people in the face with brace). Prices on 320's is also LESS than a Glock. The ability to change frames to match what your doing (for under $40) is awesome IMHO.
