Transitioned from the 1911 to a Sig 220 in the mid- 80s...... didn't like carrying cocked and locked ..... the W. German 220 DA/SA had a light alloy frame, and decocker

In the right hands it could/can shoot 3 round cloverleafs at 50'

Added a couple of compact Sig 245 for winter concealed carry in the 90s and a Ernest Langdon steel 220 in the early years of this Century.

Also have a Sig 229 with both .40S&W and .357 Sig barrels..... my only gun in those calibers...................

Like S&Ws older is better when you're looking at Sig.
