I didn’t know that part of the story. Thanks for the info. I didn’t mean to say that I didn’t like the Baretta...I loved it over my antique USMC issue 1911. I just like my SIG better...I like the weight and balance, it fits my hand perfectly and I shoot better with it than any other handgun that I own. I prefer .40 S&W over the 9mm also...maybe I will pick up a Baretta in that caliber on your recommendation.
I hear you. I was in the Army went they went to the M9 and our qualifications scores went way up. The sights on the M9 were much better than the pitiful sights on the military M1911 for one thing. The military 1911s were also pretty much worn out by the late early 1980s. I really like my P226, it is my favorite handgun and got me hooked on SIGs. Every time I take people to the range, that is the gun that almost all of them like and shoot the best. I also like the 226 better than the Beretta 92. That or my P229 is what I carry most of the time. I just meant that I shoot well with both and would not feel bad if I had to choose either one to carry with me. They are both easy to shoot well and fast and I have never had a FTF with either.
