Best inexpensive SD handgun I've ever owned.

I'm kickin myself for now buying one of those. Academy had them on sale for pretty cheap a year or so ago, and I chickened out. Didn't do sufficient research, only talked to a few non-Sigma owners and got shunned away. Maybe they'll run the sale again?????

What kinda grip is that?

[doc540]

It's a Pachmayr #05166 made for the Sigma

I admit I too was dissuaded by all the bad press I read on the internet but after shooting my brother's Sigma, I'd kinda like to own one. Felt good, shot well, and slide action was much lighter than my XD. $339 for bi-tone is still a good price and I keep looking at them every time I stop at the local Academy.

You know the old saying, 'You can put lipstick on a pig and take it to a dance, but it is still a pig.' (j/k)

I actually own a Sigma and besides the atrociously heavy and gritty factory trigger, it is a very good and reliable gun. I have polished out my trigger mechanism and lightened a couple of the springs and it now is not too bad to shoot a lot of rounds through.

Well said.

btw: S&W will so the smoothing job on their dime (postage and all).

No , that is for the gun.
that looks like a slip on grip for that gun , I have a sigma also , I was looking at puttin a slip on grip , since Ive seen that , I may go with that now. Still dont know , I hardly ever shoot that gun anymore , have other guns that I like shooting more.

I got my sigma at academy when they were selling for $299 and S&W was giving a $50 rebate. Plus got a free magazine too boot. Gun shoots good at close range but for me a little left of center and a tad low. I think it was a good buy.

[garcia946]

I also got mine at Academy for $299 with $50 rebate with 2 extra mags , its been once for work , S&W fixed the problem and cleaned up the trigger also. Shoots really good , just have others that I shot more than that one.

I really like mine. Dead nuts reliable, comfortable to shoot. Probably got 1K+ rounds through it now. You have to be attentive to your trigger technique or you'll shoot down and left, but if you can shoot this gun accurately you can shoot anything accurately.

Very nice! I love mine. No mods to it, about 750 rnds through it. I actually like the trigger. It's very accurate out to 15 yds (haven't shot beyond that); no real difference in POI with the different types of ammo I've put through it. No problems at all, easy to disassemble and clean. And, getting two clips with it was a bonus.
