Why does everybody hate 40 s&w

You can convert a 40 to 357sig and vice versa. (drops mic and walks away)

FYI the gun was made in 2009 so it's not 20 plus years old

2009? Sig was still making P229 without the rail in 2009? I have seen(and bought) non-railed P229's for $450. CDNN has the P229 E2 with rail for $559. They had the non-railed P229 for <$500 for several years but presently don't show one.

My current Sig is a P224 SAS with night sights and it was only $600. And, yes, it is a 40 S&W. It also uses standard P229 mags (although I do have a sleeve for the carry mag so it is a smooth transition from grip to mag).

Only problem with converting a Sig is the barrel is so damn expensive. With a Glock it's a hundred bucks. Double that for a Sig.

LOL. Lucky, yes...smart...not so much. I sold my P229 for what I paid for it, then bought a P227 SAS Gen 2 for a grand and sold it(at a loss), THEN I bought the P224. I am SO done buying Sigs....well...y'now...

Ouch! That's a bit harsh. Some folks just like to follow the current trends.

They said 10mm was dead but I kept mine long enough for it to come back in fashion! (Like my clothes?)

Don't worry. Give it a decade or so & folks will "rediscover" the .40 S&W.

Tweener offerings almost always suffer. Just ask middle children.
