Sigma vs. Glock 17

[vector16]

IMO If you are a pistol owner and have been owning or carrying for awhile(not a newbie) and have a proper grip. You shouldn't have to "learn" how to hold a gun. It should fit your hand and be comfortable to hold, and shoot. That being said what is comfortable to me may not be to you and so on. If a gun isn't comfortable for me to shoot I'm not buying. I just don't think I should have to learn how to hold a gun all over again.JMO

Well Rich, then you don't have to. I like the Sigma just as much as any of you on here if not more, I shoot mine more. I think there are other guns out there that are ledd comforable than a Glock. The majority of wheel guns for instance. I have large hands and your typical SA wheel gun is not a good fit, I have found the only one that is decent enough to own is the Ruger GP100. I am also thinking about the Super RedHawk .44 Mag. The entire Springfield line has a grip that need some serious re-engineering, the Beretta has a great grip too and it a VERY reliable firearm. They have been around for forever and a day too. Have you thought of of of those, maybe a .22 or a .25?

Great thread. I have personally owned several Glock 22's (and have been "issued" several) and I am a certified Glock armorer. I have also owned a SW40F and SW40VE. Oddly, my favorite to just take to the range or desert to shoot was the SW40VE. Even though the weapon was definitely not built as stoutly as the Glock, I liked the ergonomics and trigger better. That being said, the Glock is my only choice for duty carry (2nd generation).
