Range Report: Sig Sauer P210 Target (w/ Armory Craft Grips)
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 6 เม.ย. 2023
- In this Range Report I get some range time on an Sig Sauer P210 pistol. This is a target variation with the addition of Armory Craft Grips. The P210 is considered by many to be the best pistol Sig Sauer ever designed and the most accurate military handgun ever produced. Original Swiss made ones sell for a premium. This is a U.S. made version with modern design features and manufacturing. This video documents my personal thoughts, opinions and experiences, your may vary.

I love this pistol. This is on my bucket list numero uno.
It is a great gun
I like that you can rack / clear the slide with the safety on
Me too.
Were you shooting the P-210 @ 7 yards? Yeah . . . that's an accuracy test!
Your sarcasm is noted. I shoot at various distances and I am an average gun guy shooting at practical distances. I have no doubt you are an expert marksman. You are free to ignore my channel and never watch.
I have and love the p210 target and carry. The target is the only gun I don’t wear gloves with. The curved wood grips fit my hand better than any other pistol.
That is great! I hear the grips work really well for some people.
So you wear gloves with every other handgun you shoot?..🌸 🌞 🌈
That is a good looking pistol!
Yes it is. Those grips really make it
One of the best looking guns out there
Yes it is.
looks like a nice one
It really is
1:53 I picked up a p210A Standard, Awesome shooting, I couldn't resist and also picked up the P210 Custom Carry, awesome gun, Beautifully Engraved, gotta love it....
They are all around just a great design.
Good morning, Jason, that is one pistol that is on my bucket list. They rarely come up for sale here and when they do, I never have enough cash, Cheers.
Are they not imported?
@@thetexasgunvault They no longer make the version P210 that I am after. The numbers imported were really small, and no one sells them.
I have had a few long chats with support folk in New Hampshire lately. They say:
The P210as in all flavors are made in small, infrequent batches. While supply is short now, they are not discontinued. When one goes "out of the catalog" it is because of "lack of sales". The P210a Carry was dropped from the catalog a few months ago. When I bought mine about four weeks ago, a local large, very large, truly large, many things outdoors store had maybe six in stock. They probably still have a few, as well as the Target as seen in this video.
The Target (5") is still in the catalog. And a new Custom Works Carry make for the second of only two models in the catalog right now. It is very, very shiny!
I am forbidden by my orthopedic surgeon from using any firearm for a too many months. He rebuilt my right shoulder a year ago and my left shoulder one month ago. So I am sitting here with three P210as and cannot shoot them. When I can get back into shooting, my Target model will do NRA Bullseye duty. I actually carry my Carry model. I am undecided about what purpose I will put my Custom Works Carry. My best guess before testing trigger pulls is less than 3.5 for the target and ~ 4.5 on the Carry.
Wow! I hope you heal soon! It sounds like you have an amazing collection and I appreciate the comment and all the information.
Armory Craft also makes a set of aluminum grips if you want some extra weight.
That is good to know. Thank you!
You are correct about having to fire a gun in self defense. It should always be the only option to protect your life or someone else's life. However, I disagree with a 5# or above trigger. I can't stand bricks - aka Glocks - for that reason. The harder the trigger the more likely you are to jerk the gun and miss your shot. If you have doubts - you should not be carrying to begin with. Practice, practice, practice and when you think you know it - practice some more. If you draw a gun - in self defense - keep your finger off the trigger until you want it to go BOOM! Even a brick will go BOOM if your finger is on the trigger. Known as TRIGGER DISCIPLINE! If you don't have trigger discipline DON'T EVEN THINK ABOUT CARRYING!
You make good points but there is a learning curve with a trigger like this for many people.
What surprises most is that the standard and target model's slides and frames are 100% stainless steel. The dark finish that Sig puts are the stainless is more durable than bluing and is flawless in coverage. The carry model uses the same magazine as the standard model. I was able to score the carry model and really like it. It has a trigger that is about 1 lb heavier that the target and standard models.
I would love to try out the carry model one day.
I have had my Standard for over two years. I did put basically the same grips on it from Houge. But checkered on the back strap. It’s a favorite pistol. The standard has been out of production and is getting hard to find. The target went up 400 in price recently. Will Sig keep making it much longer. It’s no longer a bargain at 1900 bucks.
I did not know about the price hike. Yeah, I agree. they are going to price themselves out of the market
Love the gun and only thing it lacks is capacity
Totally agree. They need a double stack version
Capacity wasn't a issue in 1950
Amazing you don’t recommend it as a carry gun. The Swiss military carried it for decades. It’s a great carry gun.
It is not just me. Many people say the trigger is too light for most carry applications.
Great review. I tried asking sig a couple of questions about these pistols. And could not get a straight answer. Could you tell me all the american-made New Hampshire models of the sig p210 forged frames and slide? I kept asking cig and they insisted that the frames of the 210 standard are all forged aluminum as is there karaoke version. I know that's not true if you have any information I would appreciate it thank you.
I have no information for you. I wish I did. Just handling the pistols it does seem like it is made of forged metal but I am not a metallurgist, so I cannot say for certain.
@@thetexasgunvault thank you for your opinion. I'm glad you didn't try to make up information I did get in touch with somebody at cig and they finally sent me straight and let me know that they are forged stainless steel
Jason, you should look at the book by Larry Vickers Sig Saure volume 1.
He gives a full run down on the 210 series.
I have always wanted to buy his books
I was hoping they would come out with a stack and a half magazine like the 365.
That would be great if they did.
So you have a P210 standard with better Grips and sighting. Not bad. And don't complain about the price! The US P210 costs 2500 euros in Germany. 😂
Wow! I had no idea they cost so much there
@@thetexasgunvault All Sig Sauer guns made in the USA are pretty expensive here. customs duties or whatever.
If I eject my mag with rounds left in, a round comes out of the mag while its ejecting and hits the ground
Sounds like you magazine springs might be weak.
I have the same American P210 Target and have the same issue with the grip. I think there is no reason to have such a fat grip on a single stock magazine pistol. It would be perfect to modernize it to a double stock, same as 2011 in comparison to a 1911. That modification would make this wonderful pistol perfect.
Exactly. A double stack P210 would be a game changer.
Have always hated Nil grips. I got the Standard just to avoid them. Took my Standard to the range today and got a good grouping at 25 yards - that about as far I as would want to shoot a pistol. Excellent gun, but the trigger is not as good as my Sig Legion 226 SAO. Still an awesome firearm and an excellent range toy. Like you said, trigger is too light for a self defense gun.
Thank you and I am glad to hear I am not the only person who has an issue with those grips too.
@@thetexasgunvault Hogue will supply you with a very nice set of grips which resemble the Standard 's. I have done so and the results are satisfactory.
