While I greatly admire handguns, I don't think you would be disappointed with a Sig P-225, P-226, P-228 or one of Sig's other offerings. I own several Sig pistols, and if you'd like, I'd be happy to answer any questions I can that you might have about the Sig family, based on my positive experiences with their products. Just a few thoughts: the P-225/P-6 is a single stack 9mm, and conceals nicely. For a full size, the 226 is hard to beat, although I prefer my .45 P-220 to the 9mm of the 226. The 228, is similar to the 225/P-6, but accepts the double stack magazines, so you can carry more rounds.

If you decide to hunt for a Sig 9mm, I'd highly reccomend a CPO or law enforcement trade in instead of a brand new gun (going this route, I managed to score a like new condition P-229 in .40 for about a third less than what they retail for new).

ive owned a sig p226. and i have a kimber in 45. they r two totally different guns. i recommend shooting both if u can. i carry my kimber. and i personally like the kimber better as far as its thinner and i like the 1911 trigger style better. but thats just my opinion. and both nice guns

Gotta narrow it down. What do YOU prefer? These questions invariably end with the asker going to a gunshop and having a fondle session and getting the one THEY want, thus an exercise in futility in answering a vague question as such.

Come back with a question like: "Kimber Custom vs. Sig 1911" or some such...

question, are you talking 1911's? or apples and oranges

I am assuming your talking 1911 platform? Sig 1911 are nice, the only thing I don't like is the top of the slide, the way it's more squared off and it looks like it is wider at the muzzle? Never really checked that. Kimbers are good I have one in .45, if you want a 9MM 1911, I really like my EMP.

Hey, I got your PM but my post count isn't high enough yet to respond directly to your PMs or leave you a visitor message. Check on gunbroker seller TTP, he's where I got my CPO P-229 in .40 SW. When I set up my account, I allowed for the option for members to contact me via email, so if you want me to email you a link to some of his stuff I will. Right now he's got a nice looking CPO P-229 in .40SW with the DAK (Double Action Kellerman) trigger, as well as a couple of other Sigs. Not sure if those are trade in or CPO though.
