Don't get a new Sig, they have a much higher problem rate than the older, more basic designs.

For example, I have a 1994 220. No problems at all, except for a snapped trigger return spring, which is to be expected on that vintage. No FT-anything.

My friend's brand new 229 stainless 9mm did nothing but jam on everything we tried at the range for it's maiden voyage. It was pointed out to me the recoil spring takes time to 'break in'. It might've cleared up by now, I certainly hope so for his sake.

I've read countless stories of the newer 220's having problems, especially the 'carry' model.

I voted 'Sig', but only on the older models.

Just a thought.
