45 ACP roundup be without Heckler and Koch? Since this is a larger gun to start with, a larger and higher power light is nice. Other features include a reversible magazine release – a great addition for southpaws – a dual recoil spring, and rough grip texturing.Īs you’d expect there is an integral accessory rail ahead of the trigger guard and drift-adjustable, dovetailed rear sights. The G21 ships with a modular back strap system so shooters can customize the grip to their hand sizes.

The Gen 4 G21 is a full-size, striker-fired handgun. Glock 21, not pretty to most people but it’ll shoot for sure. The G21 might not be a pretty face like the Legion, but it’s a workhouse…meant to do a particular job, and it does it well. 45 ACP roundup without throwing the Glock 21 in here. Oh, and it ships with Sig Sauer Electro-Optics X-RAY hi-vis day/night sights, and they are fantastic. The P220 has a thumb safety, too, something a lot of gun owners prefer. It is available as SAO, but I admit to preferring the DA/SA model. The P220 Legion’s greatest feature just might be its P-SAIT trigger - smooth and consistent, crisp break, short reset. There’s more to the Legion line than looking pretty, though. The entire Sig Legion series look fantastic! The Sig P220 Legion is a full-size handgun which does make it a challenge to conceal (but not impossible).Īesthetically it’s a good-looking gun thanks to its Cerakote Elite Legion Gray-finished slide and frame, black G10 grips, and the Legion medallion embedded in said grips. (If you want a more direct comparison between the Legion and non-Legion Sigs, take a look at our review of the Sig P226 and P226 Legion.) Sig Sauer P220 Legion There’s nothing wrong with the original P220, it’s a perfectly solid gun…but the Legion is better. Right off, I’m referring specifically to the Legion.
