U.S. vs German made Sigs - let's see the quality differences

6.9K views 77 replies 36 participants last post by  craig19  
The newer Sigs might have nicer fit and finish. I think many of us here don't care about that. We like the older Sigs because we want a rugged and reliable combat pistol.

The fact that a lot of the newer Sigs don't work right is just made even worse by the new bizarre styling trends. Instead of paying people to come up with tens of pointless color combinations maybe they should work on reliability and durability.:whistling:

I have to know, what is wrong with all black???:dunno:

This is a new Sig, by contrast:

Yeah, that's what gun owners need. White grips, a silvery slide, and a pointless beavertail that makes the gun a half inch longer.
Evidence of this? Is this an apples to apples comparision (i.e. German P226 vs. US P226) or are you comparing a German P220 to some new Sig design built in America? The OP asked specifically for more than just opinion and hearsay. Also, picking out the gaudiest Sig from the catalog as an example of all US-made Sigs is a pretty cheap shot, and adds nothing to the discussion.
 
I don't care what the OP asked for. You all can go to Sig Forum and do a little informal survey of all the people who have bought the American Sigs and hate them. Asking for complete statistics is nothing short of ridiculous. None have existed, exist, or ever will exist for firearm quality and reliability.

If Sig would stop spending resources coming up with effeminate styling themes I would not mention it.
My mistake. I didn't realize asking a simple question about a specific firearm brand was verboten in the General Firearms Forum. I guess I also didn't realize that when someone opens a thread on a topic, he/she shouldn't expect people to try come up with an honest answer to the question but instead be prepared to listen to other posters rant about whatever the hell they feel like, telling everybody that if they don't like it, they can go somewhere else.
