What are you planning to use it for?

If you want a full size, I have always thought the P220 Elite (45ACP) was pretty sexy. Besides that I don't have a huge want for Sigs. Their slides are extremely tall and they just don't fit me well. They shoot and function just fine but I shoot better with others.

EDIT: He beat me to it. Except his picture has a typo - that is NOT A .327 sig.

It's a 9mm bullet in a 40 S&W case. So it has a lot more velocity behind it. (3rd from left)

I have big hands bapple, thats why I settled on the Ruger P89 years ago in .45. I remember shooting the Colt .45 and didn't care for the checkered grips biting me with I shot it and it seemed "small" in my hand.

I was thinking 9mm but tell me more bout this .327 round?

that picture is a typo, its .357sig

it is a 40 necked down to .357. i think it would be great for reliabilty reasons as a necked down caliber like that will likely feed better.

its numbers aren't all that impressive to be honest

I have the SP2022 in 9mm and a Sig Nightmare 1911 in .45 ACP (of course).

Both have been 100% for me so far. Of course, between the two there is no contest, the 1911 wins hands down.

For a polymer frame gun though, the SP2022 is a good value.

I don't think you would go wrong with any of the full sized Sigs. The P226 is by far probably the most popular.

I have very big hands as well. The Sigs seem to fit my hand better than most handguns for some reason.

^This. If its good enough for navy seals I'm sure it's good enough for civilians.
