Love my sp2022, comparatively light, nice capacity, and dependable. At 6’3” and 230 I have no problem with it’s concealability as an EDC. For the price... you can’t beat it!
All the haters can pound sand. The Sig SP2022 is a great gun. It upholds Sig Sauer's great reputation. We have two of these guns in our family and are excellent and ready for combat. Over 1200 rounds through mine during defensive / combat trainings over the last year and not a single problem and is an accurate gun.
TriggerJunkie I hate to break it to you but you’re not in the military. You can do as much civilian training as you want but you’re not gonna know how to apply it when you need to
Dana White I hate to break it to you, but most people in the military rarely get any consistent small arms training, if any. Not sure what your point is
@@vicknelonis3094 I don't know man. If you train and train as realistic as you can with what is available to you its value added...but anyway I put some rounds through this pistol and it's in my carry rotation
With so many polymer framed pistols out there, let me tell you why this is the best. 1. External hammer 2. manual de-cock 3. no safety You just load it and rack the slide and de-cock. At this point it's like a revolver with 15 rounds except it goes SA after the first round fired.
Just acquired one. Have owned Sigs, HKs, Glocks, etc. Have a lot of training time in my 56 years, as well as carrying a weapon on the job. This pistol is one of my all time favorites. Currently in my rotation of daily carry. Great video.
This was my first pistol I've ever owned. For $399 nib, you just cant beat it. I 100% agree with every point you made. I think you should have made the point that it has interchangable grips as well. HUGE pro for me and my large hands. I will also say that I have fed around 1k rounds through it and only a couple failure to ejects. I also like how easy it is to field strip and clean. My #1 gripe is that accessories are very hard to come by.
I've owned two the first one I screwed the pooch I sold it too a friend. I regretted almost immediately and it took me almost took me 2yrs to find one and I actually just bought another one this passed Tuesday. Great content I respect your opinion because how you keep straight
Colion, its funny to see how much you have changed and how much better your videos have become over the years after watching this one from years ago. Keep up the good work.
Dude I like your reviews but you're driving me nuts! Sigs have HIGH bore axis...you keep saying low bore axis and it may be throwing a lot of inexperienced people off...use your head!!
Bless me Father, for I am a SIG-Sauer addict. That being said, my confession should come as something of a shock to the gentle reader. I picked up a 2022 (used, $400, 2 mags, case and papers) and was just the happiest guy. Then it got kinky. I took the little bastard to the range and fed it a mixed diet of reloads and the tupperware wonder just ate them all. Cast, jacketed, it just did not matter. The issue that I had was the grouping. The new kid had charisma, but little grace...
Got a lightly used one in 9mm for $380 out the door from a local pawn shop in January 2019. Basically it shoots like my p220 but the ammo is much cheaper. Yes, it's too chunky to conceal carry, but it's a duty weapon, home defense gun, or range gun.
Have one in Fde. Got it at rural king for $410. With a $50 rebate. Came with 2 magazine and a holster. (only for the range,not carry concealed). Pistol is bad ass, shoots great out to 30 yards easy. Have the 250, also a great pistol.
No they have a low bore axis, meaning that the line in which your hand sits, in relation to the bore is low. In the case of the Glock, the line which your hand sits is closer to the line where the bore sits, meaning it has a higher bore axis.
Don't be so rude, maybe he is confused about the topic, but still his videos are good. It has nothing to do with being black, stupid people, always blaming people's mistakes on race. So when yo made a mistake is because you are white? Get serious.
The SP2022 is in reality the "new and improved" P-228. It's the same size, same bulk, and control system, only less expensive than the -228. The SP2022 has four, rather thick and bold slide rails to handle slide movement, and the only "unSIGlike" issue I can find is the need to pop out the slide stop to remove the slide-barrel assembly versus super convenient rotating lever on the P-series. I love the "sand-paper" texture grips, and the smaller grip that fits perfect...even better than my P-228 and P-229, both with the E2 grip.
You have it backwards SIG's have high bore axis and flocks have low bore axis !!! Just look and which barrel is closer to your hand both shoot great thou
I just shot one yesterday at the range (rental). His first negative remark, the trigger issues, are a non issue. Maybe they've corrected that. All I know is that the trigger was AMAZING and the reset and single action are DEADLY - short, soft, smooth. So please disregard his first negative remark.
Your video was uploaded dec 2011. I'm curious if you ever thought about revisiting this particular firearm in a "chapter two" video. So much has changed in the polymer world since I was just curious if your impression has changed.
Excellent review. I had never heard of the SP2022 until recently when I saw a used one in a pawn shop for under $250. I did some quick research and headed back that afternoon to buy it. I prefer the way this feels in the hand over my Ruger P95, and Beretta PX4 Storm (both of which I love). I agree that SIG got it right with the grip surface too. All around sweet gun.
I've owned my SP2022 for several years now. Purchased for $599 (In California, hence the higher price) and I love it. I've been a SIG fan since I was 9 years old and was first introduced to hand guns. Mines chambered in .40 S&W and therefore does NOT have the traditional LCI, however on the right side of the chamber IS a small slot where, in decent lighting, you can see if a round is chambered or not. I bought mine with night sights. This gun really does get a bad rap. The poly frame makes for a little more recoil (which is to be expected with the weight drop) but any good shooter who practices will develop the muscle memory and learn to adapt to the recoil. The only two things I'm not a fan of: 1. the grips. But that's just a personal thing for me and you get used to them. There are some alternatives out there to cope with this, but they're few and far between which brings me to my other down side.. 2. Lack of "support" for lack of a better term. Since the SP2022 isn't THE Sig gun (It ain't the 226 or 229) there aren't a lot of ready made options for it such as holsters, replacement grips, etc. I was able to find a Blackhawk stage 1 Serpa for it, and SIG's website DOES offer a few retention holsters, but if you want to get someone that'll handle accessories, it'll most likely have to be custom made. (I mount a TLR 3 on it on occasion and have to use a generic leg system to carry it. I live in an Open Carry state) Overall, despite the couple of short comings I've not been too fond of, I LOVE My SP2022. I carry it every day. I've put 12,000+ rounds through it and every round has gone off and hit the target. I can group consistently 3-4" at 25+ yards. Reloading is a breeze with the well placed mag release. (My reload time is less than 1 second if I'm focused on it and pulling from a mag holder, maybe a full second if pulling from my back pocket). Overall, just because the gun has a poly frame and has a few short comings you're still getting the SIG quality in an affordable hand gun. But the bottom line is it ain't for everyone. Go to your local range and see if they have one to rent. You'll either like it or you won't. That being said, everyone who has fired mine has fallen in love with it, and I know 2 people who went out and bought one after firing mine. :)
seen you on Rogan a long time ago but I've been keeping up on your stuff just subscribe to you cuz I own this weapon you are brilliant brother keep it up I appreciate. yeah when I shoot this weapon I change my grip but super accurate when I grab it right super different than my other guns but if you practice the way you want to perform then you know you got the right set of skills
I wanted one of these but there was no way (even with the smaller grip blocks) for my hands to get around the grip in a way that made me feel comfortable. I regret not purchasing one of these, but since I have rather smallish hands, couldn´t happen. But it is a great pistol with an awesome design.
I have large hands, but use the smaller grip. Just feels right. Bang for your buck, this can't be beat. The heavy pull is a safety feature, break this in and after a couple thousand rounds it feels perfect.Accurate and so far flawless for me.Definitely a keeper.
I want one, but I'm not confident my thumb won't whack the slide release, and prevent the slide from locking back on the last round. I've only held one, and not shot.
I own the SP2022 for over a year and I'm quite happy with it. But from my experience, if you run with the "thumbs forward" grip on this gun like I do and let your thumb ride on the slide stop, it tends to not lock back. But shooting it after a while you'll get the feel for it on how to hold it, where I don't let my thumb rest on the slide stop. Hope that helps.
no...357sig and 40sw are interchangeable with barrell changes, the nine the slide and springs are too light. Ive heard otherwise but I disagree with that ,and stick to what Ive said. No.
@MrColionNoir Idk if you bought the pro new, but the squishiness and creek goes away after you dry fire and put alot rounds through it, the trigger just becomes as smooth as a p226
I have had my SP2022 9mm for a couple months now and I absolutely love this handgun. The fit and finish are amazing and this thing is very accurate. First day out taking down soda cans at 30 yards 1st mag. I love the extended trigger guard which allows you to fit gloves in with easy. I'm tempted to go back and get it a 40 cal brother.
Been looking at Sig's, shot the p250 yesterday and was f'n it up killing it. Shoot clay pigieons against a 8' 4x4 at 21'. And just f'edmup. Found out today the 250 was discontinued, I'm siding with you, think I'll pick up the 2022.
Yay! You love the gun I bought - my first handgun! Actually (don't flame me), I have the .40 version of this gun. I got it used at a steal, and with night sights, I couldn't pass it up for my first gun. The grip is like sandpaper, and is seriously solid. I fired it for the first time last weekend, and put 250 rounds through it. the recoil was much lighter than I thought. I was shooting 180 grain ammo, and expected more recoil.
I purchased this gun in .40 caliber. I love the way, it feels in my hand. I would rather shoot this firearm, than my Glock 22 any day. As a matter of fact, out of six handguns, the Glock 22 was my worst purchase ever.
this gun is great for the lefty shooter . reversible mag release. and I use the index finger for slide release and de-cocker. the pad of my trigger fingers fit perfect on the trigger, yeah I try to switch hit with it to form muscle memory. on both hands still have to draw with left . when I switch hands I switch eyes too. something to practice .just in case.
maybe I got a really good one but while qualifying for my permit I had a friend loan me his. I'd never shot one before,hell I'd never heard of one. it was brand new in the box. The first round (of three) I hit a 226 out of a possible 240. The second round i hit 238. The final was a perfect 240. The only problem I had was a few f.t.e's on the first round,but a generous dose of ballistol and a wipe down took care of that. far as I'm concerned any criticism of this piece has to be taken at it's source. It IS a Sig after all. Thanks.
you mentioned you like to rest your thumb on the slide release.. I got in the bad habit of doing that with my HK VP9 and noticed that i was preventing the slide from locking back on an empty magazine. Now I have to think about not doing that when i draw from my holster. Do you not experience this problem with the 2022?
Year 2020: I was trying to get a smith and Wesson. (I have the M&P sport 2 .556), even my edc knife is S&W. But since I live in CA, I found out I can’t get the M&P 2.0 9mm. My friend which has the P226 told me to check out Sig Sauer and since I don’t have $1200 (covid-19 prices) for a P226, I fell in love with the SP2022 9mm. I ordered mine from a local gun shop (mine has to be made then sent to gun shop) I put down $211 for layaway lol while I wait for the gun to get to the shop. I’m super excited and I got the lite night sights on my SIG
I Garcia I went to Turner’s outdoorsman and they sell the sp2022 with Sig night sights. So with the DOJ/DOA applications, taxes, and price of the firearm. The total about came out to be $700.75.
I Garcia I ordered it on June 13, 2020 and my firearm still hasn’t been made by Sig Sauer. Turner’s said they’ll call me within 2-3 months but that’s passed. So I’m think I’ll get it within 2 more months.
Greetings Brotha I love this weapon as well... The only Negs I have on it is that the Hammer seems like it has a strange play in it when fired. AND of course SIG prices for extra MAGs are crazy... Other than that I haven't had any problems or failures to feed or fire, and I do CCW with this weapon when I wanna cheat on my Glock or SW40c...
i have a lot of respect for Mr. Colion Noir and enjoy his reviews, however someone needs to correct him on his low bore axis / high bore axis comments...he has it backwards!
Love mine, I have a P226 MK25 that I Love but picked up the 2022 for a Range Bitch, along with my Gen4 G19.Only downfal, 1 mag. Purchased 2 more at Academy Sports for $39.00 ea. So good 2 go. Great Review. Tks
@aksuperhero I believe you can swap out the 40 cal barrel for a 357 sig barrel and nothing else need be changed to fire the 357 sig round. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.
Outstanding gun for the $$. Resting your thumb on the slide release greatly increases the odds (pretty much every time) of the slide not locking back after firing the last round.
+Ryan West Sootch said something as well in his review about the slide not locking back a few times...I believe he was resting his thumb on the slide release too.
I own a Sig pro and I love it. I mean love it, I put it up against any doubt action only xd or block. I don't see for how the money one could do any better. Just my two cents but great video and I think in another 20years this gun is going to have a huge following. It is a beast when it comes to build quality. Hey any SS for under a stack is a good buy in my opinion so one for under 700 is a steal bastard child or not. Again great video !
I'm planning to get 1 next week. Wanted 357 sign but my ffl has a 9mm n stock. Debated between the 2022 and the p250. Still like both. I love glocks but quickly fell in love with my brothers p226. Anyone have any input on my 2022/p250 debate? Probably end up with both eventually!
Even though this is. Sig SP 2022 review it would have proved the quality of it if you discussed a side by side comparison wirh the Glock G19. Feature by feature. You might have come out with a Tie, or even a Sig winner?🏆. Do a revisit now in 2024. Keep your delivery slow and mature. 👍👍👍👍👍
Honestly though, they can't really be die-hard SiG Sauer fans if they can't appreciate or understand the benefits of this weapon system as an improvement in cost, functionality, & overall reliability over the P226's/P229's, etc. on which it is based. It was also the last firearm that 'SiG' in Switzerland deleloped & produced in Neuhausen am Rheinfalls, the factory in which Swiss Military Firearms are produced & it was to be their final hurrah before selling all of their arms producing rights to outside investors from Germany & The U.S.A. in the year 2000, where it became the SP2022 M1913 rail-equipped version it is today, so in essence it is kind of the best of the last of the old school traditional SiGARMS, yet at the same time eventually becoming the cool & hip Grandfather of all modern day SiG's.
Only idiots put that much finger on the trigger !!! Period !! I paid $370 with box, 3 mags and holster !!! Also , don't pay $40 for sig mags, buy Mec Gar mags because they actually make the Sig mags anyways without the price !!! Get the Mec Gar plus 2 mag , which holds 17 and fits perfectly, so you get 17 + 1 capability for $29.99 at Gunmagwarehouse.com
I have had a P2022 for about 10 years. It's my back up to my P226. Rock solid and I can count the feeding issues on 2 hands after 10,000+ rounds. Buy it. You will not be disappointed. #2A #SIG
I know it's been a while, but which of these do you prefer? I'm debating between the two at the moment myself. Jonesing for a full size, but I can't decide which... Is the price difference worth the CZ? Thanks in advance.
I just bought this today. Now I have to wait for 10-16 days til I can pick it up because the state is having problems with the processing all the gun purchases. Hopefully no criminals that were released from prison try to break into my house before I can pick up my gun and be able to defend my wife and I. Good ol Cali .

"blah blah blah I'm a military dork and I have served 12 tours in Afghanistan"....shut the fuck up you nerd.
Andrew Bacon Ohhh... you fought farmers who lost their families because of America? 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
@@vicknelonis3094 I don't know man. If you train and train as realistic as you can with what is available to you its value added...but anyway I put some rounds through this pistol and it's in my carry rotation
My local gun store selling this sig for only $399 two tone with a free holster. Should i buy it???
if you like the da/sa trigger, why not? sounds like a good deal
ok cool
ckmanzano I would try talking them down a little on the price.
Fuck yes buy it.
Get it. I have mines for over a year and absolutely love this gun. I even practiced in CC,no issues.I'm a big guy so its no problem for me.
With so many polymer framed pistols out there, let me tell you why this is the best.
1. External hammer
2. manual de-cock
3. no safety
You just load it and rack the slide and de-cock. At this point it's like a revolver with 15 rounds except it goes SA after the first round fired.
I love my 2022. My grandfather has the 2340 and it has been running strong since day one.
Just acquired one. Have owned Sigs, HKs, Glocks, etc. Have a lot of training time in my 56 years, as well as carrying a weapon on the job. This pistol is one of my all time favorites. Currently in my rotation of daily carry. Great video.
The SP2340 came before this model, it was chambered in .357 sig & .40 SW.
I'm in CA and this is still the best budget gun on our roster.

its a good platform for a new gun owner, very easy to understand, the field strip takes a bit to get used too.

Sigs are known for having a "HIGH" bore axis..Not a low bore axis like you said in your video..
No they have a low bore axis, meaning that the line in which your hand sits, in relation to the bore is low. In the case of the Glock, the line which your hand sits is closer to the line where the bore sits, meaning it has a higher bore axis.
He said that about Glock, not Sig.
He has said that about so many weapons it's not even funny...actually it's my only complaint with this guys videos is he never corrects himself!
Free rides for gas money -----you are racist.
Don't be so rude, maybe he is confused about the topic, but still his videos are good. It has nothing to do with being black, stupid people, always blaming people's mistakes on race. So when yo made a mistake is because you are white? Get serious.
Purchased this gun a few months ago shot at the range few times absolutely love this gun one that I will never sell
Ohhhh, the only thing I hate about this gun is it's availability - super hard to find in NY. Don't know why.
The SP2022 is in reality the "new and improved" P-228. It's the same size, same bulk, and control system, only less expensive than the -228.

Bought mine (in CA) for $450 + DROS, same caliber as yours...
Fuck California...that is all
DemocracyOfHypocrisy Couldn't agree more. That's one of the reasons I moved back home to Kentucky. :D
I paid $575 in northern ca about 6 or 7 years ago. Still the best value I’ve paid for a handgun to this day.
I love my sp2022. Never had any problems. Cool channel man. I subscribed.

Just how cool is it? Very good pistol: excellent grip, SA/DA - DA long 10 lb trigge with a short reset and 4.5 lb SA, and reliability
I own the SP2022 40 very good firearm it's a sig if you don't like it walk away it works
Maybe its because mine was pretty broken in or something but i loved the trigger especially the SA trigger and reset.
I want one, but I'm not confident my thumb won't whack the slide release, and prevent the slide from locking back on the last round. I've only held one, and not shot.
I own the SP2022 for over a year and I'm quite happy with it. But from my experience, if you run with the "thumbs forward" grip on this gun like I do and let your thumb ride on the slide stop, it tends to not lock back. But shooting it after a while you'll get the feel for it on how to hold it, where I don't let my thumb rest on the slide stop. Hope that helps.
I have this pistol. Nothing wrong with it. It’s a go to war gun. It just works.
no...357sig and 40sw are interchangeable with barrell changes, the nine the slide and springs are too light. Ive heard otherwise but I disagree with that ,and stick to what Ive said. No.
@MrColionNoir Idk if you bought the pro new, but the squishiness and creek goes away after you dry fire and put alot rounds through it, the trigger just becomes as smooth as a p226
Thanks for the insight, very intelligent and unbiased!
I have had my SP2022 9mm for a couple months now and I absolutely love this handgun. The fit and finish are amazing and this thing is very accurate. First day out taking down soda cans at 30 yards 1st mag. I love the extended trigger guard which allows you to fit gloves in with easy. I'm tempted to go back and get it a 40 cal brother.
This gun is great!!! really accurate cool design
Have one and love it ... Precision machine
Been looking at Sig's, shot the p250 yesterday and was f'n it up killing it. Shoot clay pigieons against a 8' 4x4 at 21'. And just f'edmup. Found out today the 250 was discontinued, I'm siding with you, think I'll pick up the 2022.
Yay! You love the gun I bought - my first handgun! Actually (don't flame me), I have the .40 version of this gun. I got it used at a steal, and with night sights, I couldn't pass it up for my first gun. The grip is like sandpaper, and is seriously solid. I fired it for the first time last weekend, and put 250 rounds through it. the recoil was much lighter than I thought. I was shooting 180 grain ammo, and expected more recoil.
I use this gun for my daily carry performs excellent
I purchased this gun in .40 caliber. I love the way, it feels in my hand. I would rather shoot this firearm, than my Glock 22 any day. As a matter of fact, out of six handguns, the Glock 22 was my worst purchase ever.
love my G22 but the ergonomics are trash
I really really really don’t like that gun! It’s is for 1. Looks ugly. 2. Looks cheap. 3. Has the worst trigger. 4. Has the highest bore axis
You are correct, the SP2022 is a great gun. I have it on .40/357 Sig and 9mm all in the same gun!
This weapon is my first gun and first LOVE! It’s my BABY! I don’t rest my thumb on the slide release bc I get slide bite
The mag cost sux but i love mine to
I love my Sig SP2022. Awesome gun! Very fun to shoot.
Does the slide ever fail to stay back when the mag is empty as a result of you leaving your thumb on the release?
Bro how in the hell can this gun remind you of a Glock 19. There’s nothing similar, other than the size and it being a polymer gun.
Sigs and sw's are real similar in my book. And theyre from mass and nh anyway
@@TheRealEMURSE neither of those are glocks
this gun is great for the lefty shooter . reversible mag release. and I use the index finger for slide release and de-cocker. the pad of my trigger fingers fit perfect on the trigger, yeah I try to switch hit with it to form muscle memory. on both hands still have to draw with left . when I switch hands I switch eyes too. something to practice .just in case.
maybe I got a really good one but while qualifying for my permit I had a friend loan me his. I'd never shot one before,hell I'd never heard of one. it was brand new in the box. The first round (of three) I hit a 226 out of a possible 240. The second round i hit 238. The final was a perfect 240. The only problem I had was a few f.t.e's on the first round,but a generous dose of ballistol and a wipe down took care of that. far as I'm concerned any criticism of this piece has to be taken at it's source. It IS a Sig after all. Thanks.
you mentioned you like to rest your thumb on the slide release.. I got in the bad habit of doing that with my HK VP9 and noticed that i was preventing the slide from locking back on an empty magazine. Now I have to think about not doing that when i draw from my holster. Do you not experience this problem with the 2022?
@IMBW89 xd's do have a high bore axis. The xdm's are VERY high. Cz's are very low. Ever shot one before?
A Glock 19? Looks more like an HK USP to me.
Very Doge Maybe he was thinking more about the size of it and got it mixed up with looks. He sounded a little nervous.
You are correct. It has more in common with the USP than any other pistol. I keep reading it's the poor man's P226, maybe it's the working man's USP.
Colion Noir have you ever said high/low bore axis the right way round? I honestly can't tell if it is intentional since you still do it in 2016
I think he maybe means to say that your hand grips the gun low compared to the bore and that’s where he got the “low bore axis” thing mixed up.
Used Sig Pro Series guns are really cheap now. Especially in .40.
This video was what made me buy this gun I was at a pawn shop saw this gun and just happened to just finished watching this video so bam sold
I own it’s predecessor the SP 2009 blue line
Year 2020: I was trying to get a smith and Wesson. (I have the M&P sport 2 .556), even my edc knife is S&W. But since I live in CA, I found out I can’t get the M&P 2.0 9mm. My friend which has the P226 told me to check out Sig Sauer and since I don’t have $1200 (covid-19 prices) for a P226, I fell in love with the SP2022 9mm. I ordered mine from a local gun shop (mine has to be made then sent to gun shop) I put down $211 for layaway lol while I wait for the gun to get to the shop. I’m super excited and I got the lite night sights on my SIG
Been looking at this gun and i live in CA as well,how much did it total with the lite night sights?
I Garcia I went to Turner’s outdoorsman and they sell the sp2022 with Sig night sights. So with the DOJ/DOA applications, taxes, and price of the firearm. The total about came out to be $700.75.
I Garcia I ordered it on June 13, 2020 and my firearm still hasn’t been made by Sig Sauer. Turner’s said they’ll call me within 2-3 months but that’s passed. So I’m think I’ll get it within 2 more months.
Greetings Brotha I love this weapon as well... The only Negs I have on it is that the Hammer seems like it has a strange play in it when fired. AND of course SIG prices for extra MAGs are crazy... Other than that I haven't had any problems or failures to feed or fire, and I do CCW with this weapon when I wanna cheat on my Glock or SW40c...
I wish the camera wld freaking focus in this vid
It,s a great reliable pistol not only for the price!!!
glock? please make it stop.....and as said before, the sig sp2022 has a high bore axis, where as a 1911 or CZ would be low.
I think the funniest part of moving out of California to a free state will be picking up magazines that are over 10 rounds.. Nice Sig!
And cheaper guns..with the same model...
The French Federal Police carry the 2022.
Would you recommend for concealed carry? Being that it reminds you of the G19?
It's my EDC pistol. For what it's worth, IWB 4 o'clock for me.
Nice review on a gun I'm interested in buying. Thanks!
lol'd at low bore axis comment... Nice review though.
Mine is actually a .40 and I love it 😍
Colion Noir channel, where you can go to see a sig review and still hear GLOCK, GLOCK, GLOCK, GLOCK, GLOCK.... Glock fanboys.
Glock makes awesome handguns. Get over it.
Glocks are pretty awesome
aaronbigtime Except for their HORRAWFUL grip angle.
Yeah the grip angle is ridiculously stupid. A Glock with CZ ergonomics would be heavenly.
filoIII awww I'm sorry glocks are too uncomfortable for your cute little hands. Poor baby :(
How would u compare this to the ruger sr9? Both cost around the same price but what one is a better value in your opinion?
You’re the man, for clearly explaining the trigger weight part. Had not seen anyone say it as clear. Keep rocking. Peace.
This is a great gun, I got a P226, but i love my pro...
i have a lot of respect for Mr. Colion Noir and enjoy his reviews, however someone needs to correct him on his low bore axis / high bore axis comments...he has it backwards!
JARED SMITH he always does.
watch his 229 spartan vid. he does it again.
Nice vid. Also, it’s lighter than all it’s metal brothers! I have a G19 and the SP2022, I shoot the Sig better...
Love mine, I have a P226 MK25 that I Love but picked up the 2022 for a Range Bitch, along with my Gen4 G19.Only downfal, 1 mag.
Purchased 2 more at Academy Sports for $39.00 ea. So good 2 go. Great Review. Tks
Do you plan on doing a review on the P250?
@aksuperhero
I believe you can swap out the 40 cal barrel for a 357 sig barrel and nothing else need be changed to fire the 357 sig round.
Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.
Noir!!! Thanks!!! I sold mine because of the trigger. Old vid. Great vid.
Outstanding gun for the $$. Resting your thumb on the slide release greatly increases the odds (pretty much every time) of the slide not locking back after firing the last round.
+Ryan West Sootch said something as well in his review about the slide not locking back a few times...I believe he was resting his thumb on the slide release too.
I own a Sig pro and I love it. I mean love it, I put it up against any doubt action only xd or block. I don't see for how the money one could do any better. Just my two cents but great video and I think in another 20years this gun is going to have a huge following. It is a beast when it comes to build quality. Hey any SS for under a stack is a good buy in my opinion so one for under 700 is a steal bastard child or not. Again great video !
Another great review.
I have to say aesthetic wise its hard to beat! Looks like the sidearm that robocop would use!
I'm planning to get 1 next week. Wanted 357 sign but my ffl has a 9mm n stock. Debated between the 2022 and the p250. Still like both. I love glocks but quickly fell in love with my brothers p226. Anyone have any input on my 2022/p250 debate? Probably end up with both eventually!
see what this gun can do with 9mm cast lead bullets check out angelo soriano (leadbullets4life)
Even though this is. Sig SP 2022 review it would have proved the quality of it if you discussed a side by side comparison wirh the Glock G19. Feature by feature. You might have come out with a Tie, or even a Sig winner?🏆. Do a revisit now in 2024. Keep your delivery slow and mature. 👍👍👍👍👍
Can you test one in 357 sig ?
The only Sig I've ever owned was one of these. And I'd have CCed it too, if I could have found a holster for it.
Honestly though, they can't really be die-hard SiG Sauer fans if they can't appreciate or understand the benefits of this weapon system as an improvement in cost, functionality, & overall reliability over the P226's/P229's, etc. on which it is based. It was also the last firearm that 'SiG' in Switzerland deleloped & produced in Neuhausen am Rheinfalls, the factory in which Swiss Military Firearms are produced & it was to be their final hurrah before selling all of their arms producing rights to outside investors from Germany & The U.S.A. in the year 2000, where it became the SP2022 M1913 rail-equipped version it is today, so in essence it is kind of the best of the last of the old school traditional SiGARMS, yet at the same time eventually becoming the cool & hip Grandfather of all modern day SiG's.
Only idiots put that much finger on the trigger !!! Period !! I paid $370 with box, 3 mags and holster !!! Also , don't pay $40 for sig mags, buy Mec Gar mags because they actually make the Sig mags anyways without the price !!! Get the Mec Gar plus 2 mag , which holds 17 and fits perfectly, so you get 17 + 1 capability for $29.99 at Gunmagwarehouse.com
I have had a P2022 for about 10 years. It's my back up to my P226. Rock solid and I can count the feeding issues on 2 hands after 10,000+ rounds. Buy it. You will not be disappointed. #2A #SIG
It is a very good pistol for the price range. Anybody who says different has never actually handled one.
The Glock 19 rules. Ideally the Gen3 variant adopted by the US Navy SEALs in 2015 as the Gen4 variant violates the KIS principle.
I know it's been a while, but which of these do you prefer? I'm debating between the two at the moment myself. Jonesing for a full size, but I can't decide which... Is the price difference worth the CZ? Thanks in advance.
I just bought this today. Now I have to wait for 10-16 days til I can pick it up because the state is having problems with the processing all the gun purchases. Hopefully no criminals that were released from prison try to break into my house before I can pick up my gun and be able to defend my wife and I. Good ol Cali .
