Modern Guns Stink!

Well -- I own two Sigs (P220 in .45 ACP and P229 in .357 Sig).

Neither "speaks" to me like any of my Lugers. Neither feels quite so good in my hand as a Luger.

However, if I had to grab a weapon with which to defend my life; it would be one of the Sigs. "To hell and back reliability" is not just an advertising slogan with these pistols.

Can't say I ever shot a Luger that I found to be super reliable. Oh -- and the Sigs don't have a safety to "forget" to disengage.

Not knocking the Parabellum design, but there are many better cartridges than 9 x 19 mm.
