I just spent the last 20yrs in Law enforcement it Commifornia..(retired)

We could carry what we wanted. I carried a Sig P220...

Everyone has a gun they like and feel comfortable with. If your life depends on your gun you have to go with the one you are confident in..Who cares what make or model it is..None of that is revelant when your being shot at.

I like Sig's because they feel good in my hand and I can hit what I'm shooting at.

After a friend of mine was shot because his Glock didn't fire. I will never own one. Bad round in the chamber, bad gun, operator error, I don't know. Nor do I care at this point..I have no confidence in the weapon after that. Do I think they are a bad gun..Absolutley NOT..I just wouldn't own one..Its personal for me.

You have to keep in mind all, if not all semi auto hand guns are modeled after the Browing High power. So In my mind they are all copies. The Sig being one. This is probably why Sig is not listed.

The Glock was innovative and set a milestone..That's why its on the list.

Now I have my eye on a Sig 9MM Delta Elite....Sweet!

Sig P220 is a great pistol.

Colt makes the Delta Elite, and it's 10mm. Did you mean something else?

Kinda hard to disagree there IMO. If you look at most modern handgun designs, they are usually a derivation of one or the other, or an amalgam of both. Exception being the striker fired pistols like the Glock, M&P, etc.
