Between the two, I'd go with the Ruger. It's got an unblemished reputation for reliability and ruggedness. The same cannot be said of the Sigma, though many of it's owners like the gun.
If the P95 is bigger, it's not THAT much bigger.
Joe I've heard that Ruger, particularly the P95 is as relaible the the expensive guns like Sig, Glock, XD just not as nice looking. WHat's your take on that? And for that matter the S&W M&P that Fintlock suggested?
i carry my sigma 9ve a decent amount. i dont think the trigger is that bad. mine eats everything and has never given me a single problem. accuracy is more than adequate for self-defense. i would trust my life to this weapon.
if you get a good deal, its worth it. but for $400, i would save a bit more and get a glock 17/19.
The Sigmas are on sale for $329.00Now what about price? They are likely within $30-40 of each other. The P95 is used.
Go with the M&P instead. You won't regret it.
