Talking New adoption

I adopted a new orphan on Saturday and took her to the range today. After putting 50 rounds down range I found I was hitting about 2 inches left at 25 yards so I took her to my local gun shop and had the gunsmith move the sights to center (they looked slightly off center) back to the range 150 rounds later dead on. The funny thing is the Sig seems slightly bulky compared to my 1911's but at the same time feels balanced. The dam thing shoots like a dream. I might have to start to carry it to see if it's an acquired taste. I have not shot the 357 sig barrel yet I'm trying to find some reasonable priced ammo.

Now I have a dilemma, December there is a sale for employees where I work and there are 2 pistols there I want but due to starting my AR project can only afford 1. I would like your input on the two, one is a loaded Springfield Champion in stainless brand new the other is a Sig P220 Elite SAO used but never fired. They are both 45acp and around the same price I'm looking forward to your input.

Nice looking gun, good luck deciding between the other two. Both sounds like nice weapons.

If you find one you like put it on layaway then you have 90 days to pay it off. I do that alot it makes you put the money aside. It sucks while you are paying it off but its cool when you pick it up.
