Sidearms & Scatterguns Any thoughts on the new SIG P210A Target

[W54/XM-388]

My favourite local gun store has a new SIG P210A Target (9mm)
I've been looking for a new 9mm target pistol & I wanted to see if anyone has any first hand knowledge of shooting them & how accurate they are / comfortable to shoot?
I do like the way it feels in my hand and the action and trigger are amazingly smooth and crisp.
I am also however considering holding out till mid next year for the P210A Super Target.

Personally, I'm disappointed they aren't Swiss-made anymore.

I have a couple Smith and Wesson target pistols that are in the same class....Smith 52-2 (.38 wadcutter) and the Smith 952-1.

The 952-1 is often stated to be a hair more accurate than the Sig 210.

I consider both guns to be magical Unicorns built in some underworld shop by magical gnomes.

I've never fired a 210 but because it is often mentioned in the same articles with my other two guns I can only guess that it is a fantastic gun to own.

I remember they were pretty expensive but the Smiths are not cheap either and further suffer for no longer being in production.

Targets shot at 100 yards?

Maybe by you.

Im no pistolero but these guns will improve anyones ability...........or lack of.


What I consider a good day with a typical service pistol.

I think I'm going to wait and get the P210A Super Target next year, it has a longer barrel (6 inch instead of 5 inch) and longer barrels make me happier.....

Yes every bit of sight radius is a thing of beauty.

So what distance then? 25yd? 10? Hard to guess anything about what the groups mean without that.

That indoor range gives me 15 yards.

OK, thanks.

pmclaine - just wanted to show you your next target/match pistol purchase

LOL just messing with ya, but seriously this thing is pretty fckn cool if you ask me. Potential reliability issues aside, I'd wager its a helluva shooter! And a interesting if somewhat crazy design!

Bore axis looks high....

Interesting that he took from the P38. To some extent the P38 was the inspiration for the S&W Model 39 which became the 52 which became the 952..

I shot one at Sig's Range Day and Shot Show and was hammering a 50 yd target with no problem.
