SIG Sauer

“Elite” has become a popular buzzword these days. Everyone either wants to be elite or hate anyone or anything that is elite. But to abide by the dictionary, one of the principle meanings of the word is simply, “the best of a class”. I can’t think of a better description for the SIG Sauer P220 Match Elite in 10mm.

One of the true stars of SHOT was the SIG P210, which was re-released in all its glory.

Wow! It’s finally over. The search for the Army’s new Modular Handgun System has ended.

In factory testing, on rare occasions, the SIG team found that they could sometimes cause a rifle to fire a negligent discharge when not safely handled.

“When it comes to shooting, consistent training is invaluable, whether you are a member of law enforcement, the military or are a responsible citizen carrying to protect your family,” said Max Michel, Jr., captain of Team SIG.

I’ve always been a big fan of .357 Sig caliber. Yeah, I know, it’s got more recoil and muzzle blast than 9mm. On the other hand, it comes darn close, and sometimes matches, the performance of the classic 125-grain .357 Magnum round. It’s hard to argue with the effectiveness of that cartridge.

Some gun makers are partnering with optics makers to provide an out-of-the-box-ready solution. SIG takes that up one notch by doing the partnering in-house. And at an MSRP of $869, this writer thinks it is a great value. You could say that the RX is just what the doctor ordered!

With the right instruction and practice, these bad boys could be a great addition to any concealed carry or home defense handgun.

Ultimately the U.S Court of Appeals ruled that the device was designed as a suppressor component first, then re-classified as a brake.
