Sig Sauer 250?

[Tracer]

Now is there anybody out there that has one of those newer Sig 250 models in the 1911 mode? I would like to hear all the Pro's & Con's on this newer Sig 1911 Double Action only weapon. Thanks!

I'm not aware of a Sig 250 in 1911 mode. The Sig 250 is DAO. It does not have a spurred hammer or thumb safety like the 1911. You can't have a DAO and 1911 style in the same gun.

I'm with seang, I've got no idea what you're talking about.

I've handled SIG P250's. Can't say that I'm a huge fan personally, but they have some unique attributes that could make them attractive to some folks, especially at a mass-issue level.

But presently, they're all DAO guns with a relatively light, extremely smooth trigger pull and long (full arc of travel) reset.

A striker-fired version is in the works, though, according to the twittering from Exeter ...

When is SIG going to get a polymer pistol right?

[seang]

I don't think they will get it right anytime soon. They need to cut out most of the models they are making and focus back on quality. They should have stuck with the basic models. I'm okay with stainless models and offering models with the SRT, but hell I can't keep up with all the models Elite, platinum, Sct, etc.... T

There is a good number of people over at sigforum that really like the Sig Pro, but I guess it didn't do anything for me.

I think he means the Sig P238. A 1911 style gun in .380.

The P250 is an entirely different animal.

I give Sig points for creativity with the 250. Cool idea but the reset is very revolver-like. Too far forward for my liking.

If SIG had managed to retain a true short reset capability with the P250....and retain 100% ignition, I think this pistol would have faired much better.

Ergonomically, I think it is par excellence. And, there's no doubt it has a butter smooth DA trigger, the nicest of any, IMO.

I personally would have preferred that they retained the original German 15-round mag with the lower profile base plates, but that's small potatoes.

I'll save my money.

Gentlemen, Sig does POSITIVELY make a P-250 model in both a full size and 3.5 inch barrel version. I had the pistol in my hands 3 hours ago at my shooting range.

The short version holds 9 rounds I am told and the large version holds 11 so they tell me. I still would like to know ALL the pro's & con's verses the Sigs I have at the present (P-226, P-229, P-239) and the wife has a Sig P-232, along with a pocket pistol called the Ruger LCP model.

This doesn't describe the 250. Personally, I think Sig needs to go to a striker system or get the reset down. I only have a little experience with a 250 in 9mm. It was accurate, and had a good DA trigger pull. The gun is so new there is no real solid info on it yet, especially the 45 ACP version.
