i admit i'm biased, but i think it's an excellent pistol. i do have a few gripes, but most of those will be addressed when the P320 Target comes out. my decision will be whether to keep my existing full size and get an upgrade kit, or get the new one for the purported trigger mods (or get both, why not)

Only thing going for them is that you can theoretically get cheaper replacement parts, since the trigger group is the serialized part. However, with Glocks being so goddamn common, it's still a hard sell. Only reason to really buy one is for

>muh caliber change gimmick [which isn't as useful considering you could just, oh, i dont fucking know, buy another gun and have TWO guns ready to go instead of just having one and then spare parts]

I used to love the idea of a P320, and then i actually got a job that pays me more than minimum wage. For the price of extra parts for the caliber change, you could just buy another pistol.

Or hell, a cheap 5.56 rifle. I know this isn't what the thread's about, but money matters.

Yeah, I don't think anyone has ever said this. You're reaching a bit but I agree with the having two guns thing. It makes more sense if you get a custom trigger job on it and rotate it from a fullsize to a subcompact when you conceal carry so you don't end up having to get custom work on two guns. But I do see where you're coming from.
>>
>>30112291

yup. refined trigger with flat shoe (swapping trigger shoes isn't that hard), integrated magwell, rear sight's on a plate so you can swap it for a MRDS, adjustable sights, fiber front, longer barrel, higher backstrap, and the grip panels are blank with grip cutouts so you can stipple or apply grip tape to a clean surface.

SIG's about to hit a home run with this one.

the caliber/size swap is really only useful to an agency. frame swap is a godsend though.

the only ambi control the P320 doesn't have that the FNS has is that the P320 has a swappable mag catch while the FNS is ambi right off the bat. no safety on a P320 and the Target gets your hand higher.

Everyone with a brain and basic Google knowledge would know but most of the noguns use wrong terms. Unfortunately even some gun owners say clips or shit like that....

>>30112362

two reasons:

you can experiment all you want (glue and grit, stipple, add a mag well, undercut... hell take the trigger guard off if you want) and you're only out a $40 part.

the grip size is a more completely designed thing rather than just something that increases trigger reach like any pistol with an interchangeable backstrap. even the VP9/P30 have interchangeable side panels and an interchangeable backstrap.

I love mine, but best on the market is a bit hard to argue. Personally I love how easily it can be swapped out for a different caliber and size, the trigger is pretty damn sweet and the overall design is solid, except some people complain the bore axis is a bit high. If somebody asked me what was best I'd say check out flock 19, sig p320, and the Walther p99 or something like that, because they have a decent mix of features and sizes. It's definitely one of the best on the market, but I wouldn't say it's the best because everyone has different preferences, and this doesn't match to everyone. Not yet at least.

God damn it's a sexy gun though.

I handled one and it felt great, easy to reach the controls. Seems accurate enough from reviews Ive read/watched.
Pros: relatively affordable, ergonomic, simple, easy to change frame.
Cons: slide serrations felt a little sharp for me, & Sig is changing the slide catch so there may be some compatibility issues with the "older" models
The only reason I haven't bought one yet is because I already have a G19 & USP 9.
Might get one eventually because I do like the P320.

The SIG is really nice, its trigger is much better than Glock. For EDC though, I would still choose Glock, because if the gun gets taken away, it's less of a loss than the SIG. If I wasn't going to carry I would choose the SIG hands down.

You must live in an area where siggers are more numerous. They tried to get people to buy P250s and P320s AT MSRP, nobody wanted em, so I was able to snag my 320 Carry for 500 flat.
Also, the TLR-1 HL and a 12pk of Cells showed up at my door today. Now I have the perfect nightstand setup.

Anyone know a decent OWB holster that will take the light. Safariland thinks $200+ is an acceptable price for a light bearing paddle retention holster.

It feels great to hold and shoot, not really into the caliber and size kits but the grip frame being able to be swapped out for different sizes textures and styles for $40 is pretty sweet. The trigger is wonderful and the night sights are glorious. People don't like the high bore axis but I grew up shooting sigs almost exclusively so it's perfect for me. It's a balls accurate reliable striker gun. At this point these guns companies are churning out are almost identical it really boils down to preference. You won't go wrong with it or a glock or a m&p or a XD or (insert polymer frame striker pistol here)

Those are some good tips! Thanks! I have done like 85% of that. I have been interested in getting a handgun for a while, and I figured this was the summer to do it. A Cabelas just recently opened up near where I live, and I was amazed by their staff. I was helped by two incredibly knowledgeable, nice, and accommodating people behind the counter who were happy to let me hold every single gun, and gave me tons of advice. I was honestly stunned. I think I was there for over an hour and a half! Afterwards I researched and researched and researched. Basically the only thing I have done in my free time the last week. So many good websites and videos out there.

There is a range nearby which rents guns and has a lot of options, so I am going to go there and shoot them. I still can't decide if I am going down the right track with the striker fire, since I have mostly shot DA/SA in the past. I am also having issues because I want a gun which does everything, which I know does not exist. I want a gun primarily for defense, the range, and in case the world goes to shit... but I have also thinking about getting my concealed carry permit recently. So yeah... tough choice, haha! I have never been particularly good at decisions anyways.

Why?
>>
>>30121772

At this point with your gun joy I'd tell you to pick the love of your life and fuck it when you get home, but that would be me having a laugh.

Just start with what knowledge you have, work it up from there, and do all you can to keep yourself from getting a raw deal. Besides, once you buy one gun you're gonna realize you need to buy ALL the guns.

>>
>>30116210
Halfwit. The bore axis is relatively the same on both handguns. The steyr adds unnecessary bulk on the front to make it look like you're getting a higher grip, and the slide is moved further back to avoid the beavertail look. It's designed that way purely for aesthetic purposes. Quality wise that thing is on par with the s&w svd9e. It's a budget gun.

The safety isn't a substitute for trigger discipline, it's a mechanism that allows you to safely holster and pick your weapon up off a surface while a round is chambered, and one should be.

With older hammer fire guns it's less necessary because you can put your thumb on the hammer and the gun won't fire, with never striker fire guns it's absolutely necessary. Don't fall for the machoman no safety meme. If you shoot yourself in the leg, dont call an ambulance. Call your family and tell them you love them, because that's not often something you live to tell about.

It also aids in a gun grab scenario, if someone is able to get your gun out of your holster, put it on you, and pull the trigger, it's going to take at least a second for them to realize what's going on. Niggers never use the safety on their hi points, I doubt they even know what one is. Even if they do, you have that second to go all in and take it to the ground or do what you have to do, draw your knife, etc.

Is bore axis even relevant? I've shot a Glock 17 and a P229 side by side with the same ammo. The 229 was much softer shooting, what gives?
>>
>>30123932
The p229 is metal, extra weight helps reduce recoil, but is extra weight.

Bore axis's influence on recoil is minimal, but it just looks shitty imo. So do guns that go out of their way to make it as small as possible, like the strike one and lebedev. It's all just preference I guess, but seriously Sig needs to stop fucking around and update their designs, there's no reason for a striker gun to be that retarded.
>>
Any reason to get this over the P250?
>>
>>30124058
250 = DAO, long pull with resistance and no break
320 = Striker fired with short reset and crisp break

With the long DAO trigger, the user has more opportunity to pull the trigger off center.
