SIG PM400 SWAT pistol

1blindref · Aug 31, 2014

I just picked this one up last week. It's a SIG Sauer PM400 SWAT pistol with the SB15 Sig brace chambered in 223/556.

It's got an 11.5" barrel and it weighs 6lbs unloaded. I'll probably go with an Eotech XPS2-0 since I've got Eotechs on a couple of my black rifles. I haven't decided on a sling or a light yet, but I've got time to figure out how I want to accessorize it.

It came with one cute little neutered 10 round magazine

I think it looks much better with a standard capacity mag

here's a shot of the back of the gun and the SB15 brace

The gun comes with copies of two letters from the ATF stating that the brace does not make this gun a SBR therefore requiring a $200 stamp, and a 5 - 6 month waiting period for approval. The overall length of this gun is 28" which also makes it legal to attach a vertical fore grip (26" being the minimum)

The other nice thing about it being classified as a pistol is that in PA. it is legal to keep it loaded in your car (as long as you have a license to carry a firearm), something you can't legally do with a long gun.

I haven't had a chance to get it to the range yet, but hopefully that'll be soon.

It looks very good. Thank you. Pictures are good, too. Please send range results & pictures, too. BTW - it would look great hanging in the rear window of a truck.

I added an Eotech XPS2-0 and painted some of the roll marks. I've got a few things on order and then I'll pick out a sling. It'll be getting dirty tomorrow and then hopefully on Saturday

Congrats! Can't wait for your impressions of shouldering the arm brace.

I put 100 rounds through it last night at my indoor range. All 100 rounds feed and fired flawlessly and I was very impressed with the gun.
I zero'ed it at 25 yards as this was the farthest that I was able to shoot. I'll be taking it to my outdoor range tomorrow to play around with it to see where I'm hitting at 50 yards with the 25 yard zero.
After zeroing it at 25 yards I shot it at 7, 10, and 15 yards to see where the points of impact where. Everything was easily "minute of bad guy" so I was very pleased.

My impressions on shouldering it with the brace are pretty simple - OUTSTANDING!
The only thing that I had to get used to was the LOP is a little short for me. I'm 6'1" and have relatively long arms. I knew this would be an issue and I've got a longer pistol buffer tube on order. It's specifically designed for use with the Sig brace and it has a locking nut so the brace can be positioned anywhere along the tube to adjust the LOP. I want to keep it as short as possible, while getting a LOP that's slightly longer.

I thought this was a cool picture showing the Eotech reticle
