Opinions on a XP or Ruger or Sig

Got a deal om all three.,...kinda need opinions on all of the above. These are some i've never had or shot..........choice and why? I realize opinions are like arm pits....most of us have a couple of them....this is not for carry,just for a shooter.

you could go with a Sig

or make a mistake.........and go with one of the others



(so say "Two-tone Twins"; Sig 232 and Sig 229SAS)

Do not own a Ruger,but have a P225 Sig and would not trade it for any other auto. Excellent shooter,and dependable. Easy to maintain. JMHO.

Assuming all are in good shape its JM Armpit but out of the 3 you listed the Sig would be my choice. Ruger are clunky but the darm things work and work well. The XP is plastic (no commets
Glock guys) and does work but a steel guy I would prefer the Sig. Which Sig is it?

Dan,

I vote with all the prior posters: I would take the SIG first. The Ruger feels, to me, like a plumber built it, but is will shoot right along like the functional tool it is. I have not handled an XP.
