Sure hope it’s chambered in at least .40S&W I hate the 9mm, it has no stopping power

I understand that SIG’s will go off by themselves if you step on them. At least the Kalifornia SIG’s will.....

Sure hope the Military version has lighter trigger than the civilian Sig P320.

First thing I did was change it out for the Grayguns trigger, which comes in at about 5.5 lbs.

I have the full size RX and found a great CCW holster for it, and now its my dream package.

Was carrying the Sig P220 SAO Carry (.45), but this 9mm set up is great.

I’m still not clear about which caliber the military chose.

9mm, .40, or .45?

Thanks for clearing this up.

I don’t understand. How is this pistol more “modular” than a 1911? For decades people have taken their 1911 45s and dropped-in after-market parts by Wilson or other companies.

With John M. Browning’s weapon one can insert an extended magazine, up grade sights using existing dovetail slot, drop in an extended ported barrel, easily replace the nice flat thumb safety with an extended one for match competition, and many more easy modifications.

The 10mm is a much better round.

Funny, the title made me think of this: I love the smell of that burnt powder. Smooth, not acrid. I’d bet it was made in the Pennsylvania DOW plant in the early Spring.
