Last week, I owned a Glock 19... This week I own a Sig P320. I am a Glock fan.
I got to hold one after complaining about the glock trigger to a LGS. It was well reviewed and the grip felt like it pointed well, so I said, why not, and bought it.
Here's what I found... Both are polymer pistols. Both have a long standing record of reliability. For me, that's there the similarities end.
One is a boulder, the other is an arrow.
One feels like a fresh baked potato the other feels like a crisp apple.
As a glock guy, I'm used to getting a lot of flack for my tupperware. But the customizations are endless. With the Glock I felt like a mechanic. With the Sig, I feel like a surgeon.
They Grip:
The grip angle of the P320 reminds me of a 1911. It points well and keeps thumbs out of the danger zone.
The thickness of the grip is solid. It seems more ergonomic. It feels like theres feedback from the handle due to the factory stipling. If you grip it tight, you'll know it. I ran it under water, the grip still felt great. It's thicker than the glock, but not by much.
The mag release is out of the way, but easy to find with thumb. You have to make a purposeful effort to push the mag release. But, in a rush, you know exactly where it is. Mag drop drills and reloading was easy. I went from empty to mag drop to reload and back on target with ease.
Accuracy, Recoil and shooting:
Accuracy is great. No other way of saying it.
The recoil is medium, very similar to the G19. Gets back back on target easily.
Trigger:
The Trigger is awesome. It's my favorite part of the gun. Theres a crisp break after a very slight take up. The trigger reset is short.
Overall I would give the gun a 9.5/10.
