Great guns. Personal opinions... well we know what comes next.

I carried many side arms for many years, some directed by my organization, others at my discretion. SIGs were the least useful to me. Why? Because I am a left handed shooter. A really good one ( used to be anyway, now I am over 55 and eyes are not the same). Maybe the new ones are ambi- but I won’t be looking at them anytime soon- I have learned the ones I have and they aren’t wearing out, so....

For the life of me I hated SIG M11s- how could I decock? Safely? I never figured it out, so I carried an M9 instead ( hate that one too BTW). Picked up an M1911A1, added an ambi safety lock and had lots of useful experiences with that one. A USMC issue gun BTW.

If you like the SIG, great, but don’t think any specific sidearm or long arm is any “better” compared to another well proven model.

Ford vs Chevy deja vu
