[panthercreekgunleather]

In case any of you missed the announcement.... Sig announced the release of a Sig 220 chambered in 10mm.   

I'm already saving my pennies.

I like Sigs (like them better a while back before they started to cut corners).

OK, I give: What's the price point?  From Sig it wouldn't surprise me if it is north of $1,200-$1,400??

[Bruno747]

Im preparing for as much as $1700. I figure a more common 220 is 850-900 and they are making this a special edition, so there is some extra for that. Then they are making a match elite which will command more. Im hoping for nothing more than 1200 but planning for 1700.

EDIT: Just stumbled on this.

$1770

I guess I won't be getting one!

    You can buy 2 or 3 (insert options) of other 10mm platforms out there for that cost. I also think the bore axis is pretty high and that will make it harder to shoot accurately.

     I guess next up is the new GrandPower 10mm when it's out.

1700.00,no way. I think the Sig will be a robust platform and serve well as a 10mm. I have well over 2000 rounds thru my 220 in .45, not one hiccup at all.

$1,200 max for me, looking at the Kimber TLE to add then.

If I'm any judge of SIG's pricing, I'm thinking somewhere between $950-$1,000.  I've seen P226 Navy's going for a grand, and under.   Also, M11-A1's for ca. $950 USD.  I think, a lot of 10mm shooters are 'spoiled' by the prices of Glocks, Rock Island Armory, and EAA.  Yet, will not hesitate to drop a grand on a high-end 1911.  It 'boils-down' to what your willing to pay, and how bad do you want, or need it!

true, true, all I own are Glocks, 1) because they are easy and inexpensive 2) reliable and lastly because they are about all I can afford,  NIB

At $1000 I'm saving my pennies for the Sig. At 1700 plus I'm taking a pass.
I'm looking for the SAO to give my witness limited a run. Not looking for another duty gun.

I am seeing more and more links to Sig V-crown ammo in 10mm. Im hoping that this is a sign this is coming along nicely. I am getting really twitchy to get a sig. I was considering it a while back but the lack of 10mm pushed me away from it and I couldn't convince myself to get another 45.

I even have a few guns swirled away in the safe that I would be willing to sacrifice should I be a bit short on the total when the time comes.

Same here. Thinking my AK and shotgun might help fund this.

Posted the same info to the Sig Sauer facebook page.

The replied saying that we might see some things at shot show that turn up to 10.

Awesome!

The reason I do NOT own any Glocks
The grips are too thick for my short fat fingered hands
The grip angle just feels unnatural to me.
I don't like plastic guns

I mean it's all just personal feelings. If they feel good in your hands, good for you. But I did this once. I took a Glock, and pointed it without aiming at a target. I locked my arm, then peered down the sights. I was holding it way too high. I do the same thing with a 1911. Bingo, sight aligned right with the bullseye. A 1911 just feels way more natural to me, and I would trust one a lot more in any panic SHTF situation.

Once again, you don't have this problem, Glock is a good deal for you.
