I purchased my P250 over 3 years ago. I love the dam thing. Easy to take apart and clean. Reliable, and simply a grab and go gun. I have shot over 1500 rounds in it, and never a problem. I purposely did not clean it for 500 rounds, and did not have a problem. It was $600 when I purchased it 3 years ago at Academy.
Fuck... That's a kick ass gun for the price... That's a good deal, fuckin.. period. How does it compare to a 226 in terms of what it's like to pull the slide back, etc?
@mikeb1444 It feels about like a P226, but it's definitely not as smooth. You have four contact points on the rails (two per side), instead of the 2 (full length) rails on the P226, so I imagine that's why. Trigger is of course very different. P226 is DA/SA, this is DAO... very revolver-like, but one of the best DAO's I've used. Nice sights, very accurate if you can manage the long DA trigger, and a good affordable alternative to a more expensive steel or alum. framed model. I like mine a lot.
@MadOgre lots of people hate the thing.. same as my dad. i loved it personally. to boot the whole thing could be thrown in a full size grip/slide for 285 now
If this Sig has sooooooooooooo many options then why the H.E.L.L. does everyone on youtube show it in the 9mm. I mean come on, let's see the .357, .40, or .45 sometime.
Why? if it is because of the fired casing thing, Sig will provide one if asked. I am dealer and sell a lot in Maryland (otherwise known as the Peoples Republik of Maryland) When I order a Sig, I just ask for a fired casing. It's free. If it is the lock thing, see if the "Omega lock" is acceptable. It is in Maryland.
The short reset on the trigger is nice but my problem with the modular platform is that the trigger mechanism rattles within the frame and just isn't as solid as the classic Sig line. Thumbs up definitely for being able to swap out and all but I wasn't too impressed with this when I shot it.
Where does the ATF say that the P250 is Unreliable??? Show me a link or something. Saying such things without something to back it up does not help at all. Thanks!
@RubiconTSL A simple google search will reveal a government accountability office's report that ATF evaluators experienced far more stoppages than either the S&W or Glock models during live fire testing.
@migkillertwo The US Air Marshals who have adopted the P250 are now not very happy with it at all. They used to use the P229 and are wishing they could go back to it.
@nickp827 that was a compact. subcompacts do not have rails on it. also another way to tell is that the full size and compact sizes are squared around the trigger, the subcompact being rounded out and without a rail for accessories, of course.
i love this gun, i have a subcompact as my concealed carry
Is this thing still retailing for 699 like you said? I see these P250s on Gunbroker and such for like 425 to 450 new in box, been that way for the last year or so.
I used to think this gun was ugly as sin when I first saw it. But I have to say it's growing on me. The modular features on it seem to be a nice touch on it too. Thanks for posting the vid.
Do you think that the main component of the firearm being removed so easily will be a durability/reliability issue in the long run? How does this compare with a Glock? Specifically a .45?? Thumbs up!
do you think you could do a vid about the different slides and such? I was thinking about getting a full sized and then getting a compact slide later on.
@FazeDxCreationZ It's Double-Action Only so, as with most DOA pistols, it doesn't have a safety. This isn't to say that ALL DOAs don't have a safety, but it's to be expected.
The SigPro 2022 trumps this gun. These are not selling well for Sig, yet the model its intended to replace (sp2022) continues to sell like hot cakes.
In fact Sig just dropped the price on these because they arent selling. An over-hyped concept that has fallen on its face. Interchangeable back straps is a better and simpler idea.
That being said, another great video however from the Ogre. I still wanna try that slipstream lube!!
Yeah bad move in my opinion. They'll still be made just not for civilian use. They still have a lot of contracts with mil/le for the 2022. You should still be able to get parts for quite some time though. TheP250 and the mosquito are my least favorite Sigs lol.
It's still built - they just don't want to market it in the US because, I don't know, maybe SIG doesn't think Americans have the brain power to handle two different polymer pistols.
It could also be that those wishes to kill the SIGMA got crossed to SIG and their sigpro, so you need to start sending SIG retractory thoughts.
only problem is that when you make it a carbine, it legally becomes a rifle. if you convert it back to a pistol, you will then have an illegal SBR. it makes no sense i know.
There HAD to be a person at the BATFE that laid a brick when that came across the desk.
The carbine kit will probably never come-that whole SBR thing is what I'd put money on them classifying the carbine version of.
Though one could look at at this ask "what exactly defines a receiver?" I know this is not a receiver but the modularity does bring questions to existing BATFE regulations in my opinion.

The 2022 will be made, they're just not going to import 'em.
And this is one instance where we'd have a "good" SIGMA - ie: a poly pistol for about $200 less than the premium 250.
That said, the 250 does feel sweet.

k now i am sooo heading to the gun store lol i hope they hav either a .40 or .45 in stock =)

Now they don't use the same grip so the .40 can be .357 sig and 9mm but the .45 is pretty much by itself for now so choose wisely!

9mm, .40 S&W, .357 SIG and .45ACP

If your looking for a mid-sized gun, refer to Ogre's mid size comparo video. The P30 HK, CZ P07 DUTY, & Glock 19 are better choices IMHO.

Unfortunately, This one trumped the SIGPRO, as this is it's replacement. The Pro is no longer produced and not in the newest catalogs.
They are sixes in many respects... they are both SIG's after all.
