Loading up the Benz for a road trip back to FL (2 week rental of a beach house in Destin), bringing the P227 & PPQ 45, along with 500rds of Sig Elite Perf 230gr Match Grade FMJ. I have a friend in Destin who's a member of Oak Ridge Shooting Sports.
Vedder holster in the 4 o'clock position and canted for natural draw has less printing them the Sig 227 it replaced, carries better too. 10:30 position, canted for natural cross-draw is do-able too (slight printing of slide/front on upper/outer thigh. Could never pull off the 227 in that position). The PPQs rounded/melted shape makes the difference, yet it's still a full size Service Duty firearm, point better, fits the hand MUCH better, the trigger makes the Sig fire control system feel un-developed, and I shoot it better. Win/Win.
Did I mention the trigger???
Installed the SS guide rod and 20lb Wilson Combat spring, no worries of failure to feed with this heavy spring, limp wristers won't be able to cycle the slide and chamber a round. I like my semi-autos to drop spent cases around 2 to 4 ft away, and farther and the gun is hitting the slide limit stop too hard IMHO. Just need to keep them cleaned/lubed to prevent FTFs.
Did I mention the trigger???
The Desert Eagle in 50AE I shot last year had a lighter slide cycle.

Notice to ALL striker fire manufactures, THIS IS WHAT AN AWESOME TRIGGER FEELS LIKE, LEARN IT, KNOW IT, LIVE IT, PRODUCE IT!
