I don't understand. What is the attraction of 3.5" barreled 9mm pistol that is 14" long & weighs 4.5 lbs? Serious question.

Increased accuracy and capacity over a standard pistol.
I guess what confuses me is with a 20 rd mag, it's not that much higher capacity than many double stack 9mm and since it's not a 'belt carry' handgun, why not a longer barrel. Again, I'm not trying to argue and I'm sure it'd would be a hoot to shoot. I'm just not sure of its niche.

Maybe I could see it for suppressor use but what can this do that a, pardon me for saying this, a Glock 17 could do in the hands of a trained marksman?

I'm not the target market for sure and I LOVE pistol caliber carbines...

Too much MSRP for a range toy for my stable.

AR9 carbines are too cheap for this to be a serious option for anyone other than a real Sig purist. Said by the owner of a HK SP5K.

You can shoulder it and have greater accuracy, you have a wider range of optics available than the regular slide rider optics available for a handgun, less collateral damage with a PCC vs a rifle caliber, etc.. I definitely see the attraction to something like this, maybe just not this particular gun(especially from Sig) and at that price point.

I get that. I guess for me it would be worth the extra three hundred for the PSB. Yeah, it weighs a pound and a half more but you get a 4.5" barrel, the brace is 3 position vs. fixed and 30rd capacity. :noidea:

As much as hate sig, the mpx is a pretty damn good rifle now that they sorted it out. An AR9 doesnt even come close in how soft the recoil impulse is. The mpx is even softer than my apc9, but i still refuse to buy another sig. The mpx still eats triggers though. This model is comically ugly IMO. A different muzzle device, paint it black and slap on a stock and it would be better.

Better question. Why a longer barrel?? 9mm performs best around 4". Why would you want to make it longer??

Sig Copperhead with wizards sleeve magwell. :sick:

Only $1835 msrp Yikes Sig.

My thoughts:
-The bolt catch and mag release controls look super recessed and more difficult to manipulate.
-The front of the gun is hideous and you guys know I'm all about looks.
-$1800 for a super compact, take it home today (bc pistol), big name brand, etc PDW isn't far off from the industry. I don't see the gripe here really other than if anything I think Sig is always overpriced.

As mentioned before, B&T makes a superior gun mechanically and comes in at $400 less than the Sig.

I get it though, Sig drops a lot on R&D and that costs a lot of money.............but this looks like a Taurus or Mossberg.

What I said was, "...isn't far off from the industry". I still stand by $400 is definable by, "not far off". Not only that, I'm sure actual retail price will be significantly less, just like nearly every other gun in existence.
