I know about it. Shot one. Didn't like it. Too wide, needed
a trigger
job out of the box. Comes in several models with
interchangeable pieces
and parts, but it sure isn't a gun for all seasons or
reasons. Not
nearly up to the quality of SIG's more traditional offerings.

Perhaps if you posted info about what you intend to use the
firearm for,
you might get some helpful advice.

What would you call the advice you just provided?

Oh, and by the way...the other day when I responded with an
LOL to your post about not reading crime
reports, I was laughing at the comment after that. You
informed me about all the gang activities in
my neck of the woods. I was laughing at your 'in depth'
knowledge of gang activity in the
Springfield area - when you aren't interested in crime
reports. :)

I'm not interested in crime reports per se, but I have been
following
the activities of MS-13 and other Central/South American gangs
as a
sociological cultural issue of interest. You wouldn't
understand that,
but you might recall several times here I have mentioned my
interest
since my undergrad days in what we called "nuts&sluts," but
more
correctly, "Deviant Sociology." These gangs are active just a
couple of
miles from where you live.

Oh, now I understand. You follow the crime reports that pertain
only to the gangs in which you're
interested. You should give this site a try:
http://homicidewatch.org/suspects/

See how many suspects you know.

Oh...the "gun advice" was just my recollection of the firearm
in
question. If you think it is suited for your unstated needs,
go for it.
I got to handle and shoot a P250 and other SIG firearms in
connection
with attendance at a two day IDPA course I took from SIG. I
think it
might have been just before SIG started marketing the pistol,
or right
afterwards. Something like that.


Well, based on your advice, I ordered the gun last night.
Should arrive in four or five days.

Thanks, now I feel better!

No "safety" on the P250, if memory serves. If so, yet another gun
accident waiting to happen. Didn't you just buy a pistol and get
handed
one as a gift? You aren't even "experienced" with the two you
already have.

How much experience did you have before you amassed tour arsenal of
guns¿
