Sig just re-issued their classic P225, the closest thing to S&W's alloy-framed, single-stack 3913/14. Sig updated a few things on the new P225; most notably the slide is now fully machined instead of being stamped and welded. MSRP for the recently re-issued P225 is almost $1200., when demand settles the street price will likely be around $1000.
They'll probably sell every new 225 they make, just like the rest of the P-series (220, 226, 227, 229, 239 and others). Sig has even announced a re-chambered .45 ACP P220 single-stack pistol in 10mm; they'll probably sell every one of those too, judging from all the folks over on the Sig Forum itching to buy them.
If Sig can sell a re-issued P225 for over a grand, perhaps S&W will take note and bring back their 3rd generation alloy-framed pistols.
