[QUOTE="LBnM, post: 3031533, member: 817"] With my handgun inventory reduction I have been searching for what I wanted in a Woods, Water and Camp pistol. I'm not a big fan of the plastic guns but do recognize their capabilities and wanted one of them for this role. I have two SIG P220s - an old and a new. The old, a german nickle slide model is my carry gun and I have been using it in the camp gun role. The new is a P220 Legion for the house and range and I'll not use it for that. I wanted something that I wouldn't worry about getting wet or muddy and would be easy to clean if I did. I tried a Glock 30s and it's a great little gun but didn't fit my hand at all. The new Gen 5 fits my hand well but it's a 9mm, so that was out. I had previously shot a couple of P320s that friends had and liked the trigger very much. Then came the upgrade scenario. My biggest concern of the P320 is that the upgrade will impact on the trigger smoothness. I'm not really concerned about the drop test. In about 60 years of handguns I've only dropped one once - and that was intentional when in Vietnam I let go of my Browning High Power to grab a nearby available rifle. I think the design of the P320 would lend itself to easy cleaning if I slipped while fly fishing or something like that. There are lots available now that owners are nervous about them but I could buy a new one thru the SIG AP program for less than what some are going for used. So, I ordered a compact .45 to take on that role. I'll see how the upgrades affect the trigger and may or may not upgrade mine. Just wondering how many other owners were thinking along that line.
