Anyone know about the new Sig P320?

[jdyer225]

Anyone know about the new Sig P320? I saw it on Sig's website and I saw a video about it at shot show, but I can't figure out if it's not released yet or anything. It looks like an awesome gun. I'd love to compare it to the M&P's(which I also love by the way). Thanks

I am sure that this is a great striker fired pistol. My preference is a pistol with a hammer. I love my P220's in .45ACP and .38 Super. They fit my hand better than any striker fired pistol. I do like my M&P 45 and my Glock 21. I would buy a P227 before I would buy the P320. This is based on my personal preferences.

Sig being Sig, they will probably show up in 6 months to a year after they announce them. Looks like their latest attempt at competing in the polymer frame, striker fired pistol market. I like the P220, 226, 229 pistols because nobody makes DA/SA pistols like Sig does. We'll have to see what the new 320 does better than all the rest, when they start showing up.

Blasphemy!

Just like FNH, they had to go a make a striker also.
FNP---FNX---FNS

Is nothing sacred anymore??

I see that, "someyear" SIG plans on making a "subcompact" P320 that's about the size of an M&P Compact. It's not announced, but the size specs are listed in the online P320 manual.

Handled and shot one recently...sweet pistol. Similar to M&P, but a Sig. Nothing special in those regards.... I'd use one.

That being said, I'm still waiting on the two pictured and catalogued 1911s in .357sig from last year ........

It basically their p250 with a slide converted from hammer to striker fired, uses p250 mags & grip frames. I loved my 250s & can't wait to hold & shoot the 320!
The only other semi auto frame that feels better in my hands than a Browning Hi Power v is a Sig, especially the 250/320.

The whole modular concept is a great idea. I have the P250 in .45acp, and it is a great gun. No reason to believe the p320 isn't. Ed

I have put several hundred rounds thru a fullsize P320 in 9mm & .40. The LE SIG rep dropped both pistols @ the PD range for T&E. The 9mm is boringly accurate & very mild to shoot. A bit heavier than a Glock 17 so it soaks up recoil real nice.

The .40 is also extremely accurate & easier on the hands than my Glock 23 & 35. I presume due to the very solid steel internal frame & more heft. The polymer frame is also rigid & not as flimsy as many other poly guns. I also shot the .40 P320 better than the Glocks. The trigger is phenomenally better than virtually every other striker gun, except the latest iterations of Styer's S/M/L pistols.

I have basically decided to do the Sig P320 for work & retire my old Glocks. The only thing slowing me down is the lack of light bearing duty holsters & $$$$$.

My agency approved the P250 years ago, but no one carries it any longer. I think the P320 will do well in LE & civillian circles. BTW, the rep said that a TwoSum set & sub compact should be rolling out soon with the .45 version.

Do you have any trigger time on the Walther PPQ and/or H&K VP9? i recently tried out all three, and the P320 was my least favorite. I liked it's very strong and audible reset (which was shorter than the VP9), but the trigger was heavier and less crisp than either in my hands. Overall, I liked the VP9 best overall, thanks to its lower bore axis and extremely comfortable grip, though the PPQ had a marginally lighter trigger.

There's another current thread about the P320 here.

StickShift,

I've only messed with the VP9 & PPQ in stores. My agency doesn't have any Walther pistols approved since they have too many armorer schools to attend. Quite a few colleges use H&K USP's with the LEM trigger and love them. I like them too & would use one but whew! They are spendy. There is a Sgt pushing for the VP9 to be approved but it's so new & the range staff won't approve a weapon unless they have armorer support from the factory. That's why the Styer's & Walthers aren't on the list. The other issue is duty gear for 'non standard' LE pistols. At least Sig, Glock, H&K, Sprngfld XD's & the 1911 variants have readily available holsters.

You are correct, the P320 had a more revolveresq trigger vs. a click reset like most other striker guns. Being a dyed in the wool wheelgunner, it didn't bother me. I actually like that type of trigger.

I got to see a picture of the newest P320 on Sat at a gun show. It's a subcompact version. Much smaller and the Sig rep said it will be available in 45 cal. Rep said it will be out in November.

Just wondering if anyone here has bought a P320 recently?

Any range reports?

Any range reports?

At 9:51 Hickok45 mentions that the trigger hurts his finger.

I don't know if that is, or isn't, a widespread issue.

 

[Llando88]

^^^ Thanks, yes I saw that.

I probably should have said, does anyone here on the S&W forum have any range reports they would be willing to share...?

 

[hdfinder47]

I stopped by the range on the way home from my LGS with my new P320 full size 9mm and ran 2 mags through it - WOW. Exceptional trigger, very controllable and accurate (shooting 3-5" steel plates at 15 yards). My P227 45 Tactical and this gun are now for sale so I can get the P320 45 Tactical when it appears.

Not yet! But I am going to a gun show this weekend with intentions of buying a 40 S&W Carry if I can find one at a reasonable price. Haven't bought a new gun in a while and started looking and found the P320 concept very interesting. None of the local gun stores carry them so I haven't put my hands on one yet. Reviews and comments I have read have been largely positive. I like the idea that the frame with the serial number can be used in any of the sizes with the purchase of a kit.

I currently have a P226 and a P229 that are very good guns but I shoot very little because I don't like guns with the DA/SA trigger and hammer that they have.

Interested in what you decide.

I looked at a 9mm "Carry" model P320 at my LGS the other day. I liked how it felt.
