I saw a 220 in a shop the other day and liked the look and feel a lot and the idea of an SAO Sig. is appealing but I don't really need another .45 so talk me out of buying it.

Does any1 have 1 or know of anything wrong with it?

Why would we want to talk you out of buying it? go for it! any Sig is worth buying for a good price.

The BOSS:twisted: of the house thinks I have enough gun and has made me open a new bank account for my "gun fund" that comes from my bonus checks and that's all I'm allowed to spend on guns anymore .

Before I would have just bought the damn thing and we wouldn't be discussing this lol But now I'm on a limited budget so I'm trying to find a reason to by the 220 other than just because I want it.

That's why i want you to talk me out of it.

Sell the boat!

I was so on the fence between a 220 Ernie Langdon and the GSR back in the day.
Having come from a 226, which I totally regret selling but then it made sense and I needed the money to boot, it was a natural progression...but I'd then just gotten bit by the 1911 bug and well thats all she wrote.

I went with the GSR and have been happy, but I still think back to the now discontinued 220EL.

Nooooooo don't say such a thing lol


Janq,

That's another thing, I have a Revolution and I'm trying to justify;something I've never done before; buying another .45 that's not a true 1911ish type. But the 220 tactical is hella sweet.

 

[ORCA]

yeah.. I'll be no help talking you outta it either lol. Can you ever have too many .45 variants?

 

[brucelee]

I'm not too hot on sigs, but the Sig P220 is my fav sig of them all. It's a damn fine pistol. You can do no wrong.

 

[Jeremy]

you can never have to many guns period.

This is my final argument if you will lol

I'm going to venture into IDPA and 3 gun match in the spring so the pistol I buy will need to work for that, seeing as i've never shot a pistol in competition do you think the 220 will work ok for this or sshould i steer towards a 1911 platform.
