Anyway back on topic. I really don't think the P227 is something to get hyped over. It's a concept that SIG should have introduced years ago and every other company has been doing already.

I also agree that it's not going to sit well in a marketplace dominated by guns like the XD45, but I am sure that the P227 is still going to get snatched up simply for being a SIG (just as the HK45, in spite of its disappointing magazine capacity, sold well simply for being an H&K). Alas, this also means that SIG isn't going to learn any lessons and will keep putting out guns that are far below the standard set by its German-made stamped-slide pistols in the 1980s. Quote:

Not sure if this is true, though I remember reading elsewhere that the same thing happened when the HK45C Tactical came out.

I remember when I saw the Glock 30S and rolled my eyes on how that is also a dumb concept because it is barely the same size as the G30. The big companies really are not taking any chances with new designs.

I can't think of any gun that can boast the Glock 30's capabilities and retain it's weight and form factor, no one even wants to try. And yet they still do the little extra they can to make it what it, admittedly, ought to have been in the first place. The only thing I can fault Glock for is not aiming as high with their end goal with their newest product, but they certainly reached their goal nonetheless. I can't say the same for the P227. They aimed to put out a product in the niche and what they have put out is a thrown together adequacy, if that. And in the end, it's a product improvement of the P220 with a different name entirely. Good for them, they're in the high capacity .45 market now, and their name will assuredly sell the product, but it's still not a great example of the niche. The Glock 30S is. |
