Your best bet is to get an older Sig. I have two from the early-mid 90's and they are incredible works of art and machinery. I have actually considered selling my 239, but after the Cohen era took hold I reconsidered. I will never be able to get a newer built one with the same quality. So even though the 239 has sort of been surpassed in terms of its practical applications, it is still really nice.
Look at private seller listings and you will find some older examples for better prices than new/inferior examples. But it is getting tougher to do as time passes. Already P228's are going up overall and getting gobbled up within a day or two when listed on Calguns...and they are not listed as often lately, it seems. Personally, one thing is for sure for me: as long as Cohen is there and or his trend continues, I will never drop the kind of dough Sig wants on a new one. There are better options out there for the money.
