    Default Anyone want to let me shoot their Sig?

    Anyone with a DA/SA Sig around the Berks area want to let me try it out? Preferably a .45, but any caliber will do. I just want to see if a DA/SA trigger is something I'm willing to deal with, or if I need to spend the extra on one of their single action only models.

    Dave,

    Technically you don't have to "deal" with a DA/SA trigger on a Sig. Most of the Sig models have a thumb safety, so I believe you could carry the pistol cocked and locked. Doing so essentially make gives you a consistent trigger pull like a SA, as well as 2nd strike capability if that's something important to you.

    Personally I don't own a sig with an manual safety. All of my units are DA/SA. I carry with one in the chamber and de-cocked. If I had to draw and fire, im sure the adrenaline would be pumping so hard most would barely notice the harder pull on the first shot.

    One thing I can say for sure is that if you have the option for the Short Reset Trigger you should jump on it.

    I am looking for SIG ST Series pistols. Please PM me if you have one you would like to sell.

    I have a 229 that you can blast away with if you are ever in the Chester county area.... I never shoot it so you might as well.

    Most Sigs can't be carried cocked and locked.
    They have decockers not safeties,the only ones with the safeties are the Single action only guns (X-5,1911 and the 220/220 carry SAO variants)
