Striker Fired Sig? Hell yeah!

I just read at gunsholstersandgear.com about a new Sig pistol called the P320.  The new pistol is a striker fired gun like a Glock or Springfield XD.  I think this is the first striker fired gun from Sig Sauer, but I could be wrong.

I've always liked Sig pistols - they are solid performers with great accuracy and rock solid reliability.  But a lot of them are too large or heavy for me to carry around.  Plus that long double action trigger pull just sucks.



With a striker fired gun (instead of the hammer fired on the rest of the company's guns), the trigger pull can be a lot shorter and smoother.  The pull weight is supposed to be about 6 pounds which sounds right on to me.

This gun is still supposed to be top secret, but I am guessing Sig might go ahead and admit it now that the cat is out of the proverbial bag.  Once they do, we will get a chance to see what they have designed this thing to look like.

I hope the gun looks more like an M&P than the P250, but we will have to see.  The P320 is supposed to be modular like the P250, so the two guns might look a lot alike.  I hope not though.  Its not that the P250 was ugly...it just wasn't very attractive.  Your thoughts may vary, of course.

So, that is what I am most excited to see in the coming year.  The annual shot show is right around the corner, so I hope to hear about how well these guns shoot.  Until then, I will have to dream...

My Guns and Knives Site

I'm not a typical girl.  Not by a long shot.

I'm more of a country girl living in the city.  I'd like to think the city can benefit from my presence and experience.  Most folks living in the city see themselves as "hard," but they are really just full of manure.

My blog is about guns and knives.  Mostly my guns and knives, but with others mixed in as well.  If I like it, I will probably write about it.  If you are particularly lucky, I will even do some videos with the toys from my collection.  I'm just not sure I can find someone I trust to hold the camera.

This site is for my own amusement, so if you don't like some of the things I say, I'm sorry, but you might want to move on.  I don't tell others how they should think and will not tolerate those who come here and tell me how to think.

I like guns.  I like shooting.  I like hunting.  If you like those things, I'm sure we will get along famously.
