don't leave the Sig's out in the cold... at least handle a few and see if you can fire a couple... i;ve shot just about everything out there a time or two and i owned a 229 for a time in 40 S&W and it's probably one of the nicest semi auto's i've ever had the pleasure of owning and shooting... comfortable to handle and shoot, ate everything i fed it... including reloads ranging from mild to wild... never a FTF or FTE in over 22,380 rounds (that's what my reloading logbook totalled) of reloads and no idea how many factory rounds...

but it wsa jsut too large for me to conceal comfortably since i am not of overly large stature.. both height wise and width wise... i prefer a hammerless 38 S&W wheel gun for that...
