Anybody have one, shot one, have any thoughts on it? Have a local guy with one for sale or trade and want to expand the pistol selection.

I am a huge SIG fan. I have several.

If I am not mistaken the 320 is a new striker fired weapon and its polymer Just for me being a SIG fan some of their other stuff I don't like "as much" as the traditional models. The 2022 is polymer and feels good to me...but I've never shot either. I've handled them at shows and most of the new ones dont have the same feel I am accustomed to.

I am sure the gun shoots fine but for me I am shy on some f these new models...not because of any kind of reliability or quality but just feel.

I've got a 2022, a 226 and a 229. Only thing I don't like about the 2022 is its .40. Got my eyes on the 320

The only poly frame of theirs I don't like is the p250. Something about that thing...

What would the purpose be of the 320 in your collection? How does it play well with the others?

Really it boils down to personal preference. Do you like striker fire pistols? How does the trigger feel? Is it going to be a range gun or an EDC? How does it fit your hand? I have small mitts so I am more keen on ergonomics...

For me all this "ability to switch caliber" stuff is good and all but half the time by the time you get all the coversion stuff you can just about buy a new pistol in some cases...

My impression of some of the newer SIG's are either great or mixed. I don't like some but I love others.

The 320 is a 250 frame with a new slide and FCU. Nothing wrong with a 2022 in .40 imho.

Nothing wrong with the 2022 at all, I'm just not a huge .40 guy. Especially in that gun with no weight over the muzzle. A steel guide rod helps, but not much.

Yeah, I have a steel guide rod as well. Don't notice any difference. I will say, the 2022 in .40 does have a good bit of "snap" to it compared to my 229 in .40. The 2022 was my first handgun, so I'm used to the "snap" now. [:D]

Same. Picked up the 2022 as a police trade in for like 350 bucks 5 years ago. With siglite night sights.

Best out of the box trigger I've shot I like it better than the vp9 which is saying alot. I feel like Alamo5000 on the conversion kit guns but I bought it in 9mm carry frame may get the 45acp when it comes out .depending on price. I bought mine after shooting a friends over several weeks and a few hundred rounds clean consistent break. I don't like aftermarket trigger kits in my carry guns so only comparing it to stock my stock g19 , and mp9 and a buddies new vp9.

I've never owned a Sig, and I do like striker fired pistols. So....we'll see.

I would be considering the 320 if I wasn't already committed to the M&P platform. I really like the triggers.
