They both look nice.  I didn't vote since I haven't shot the Sig.  The only Sig 45 that interested me before was the GSR.  That Scorpion that Biggerhammer has looks like it's grandson.  Have fun at the range and let us know what you think after shooting them.

I hear the grip on the Not a Glock polymer 80% frames has the same rake as a 1911.

The gen3 G21 SF is the gun that got me to like Glocks again, after swearing them off for a long time. Very accurate, feeds almost anything, and stone simple.

The grip angle thing always comes up when someone mentions the G word. In my experience - the guys who complain about it don't practice enough, if at all, with that platform. Grip angle is subjective to what you've practiced with, it's not a "natural" thing like some claim. If you're committed to actually practicing and being good with a pistol, grip angle shouldn't be an issue.

Glocks are to cheeseburgers as Sigs are to ribeyes.
As long as we have the habitat, we can argue forever about who gets to kill what and when.  No habitat = no game.

The Sig 320 isn't any more "high class" than a Glock; they are a direct competitor targeting the same market and similar price point. Claims to the contrary are based on perception or myth, not reality.

Actually I believe just the opposite.

If you practice allot, you should shoot a weapon you actually enjoy shooting.

Not adapt to a pistol that you are not comfortable with, whether that pistol is a Glock, Kimber, Sig, etc...

Everything about a pistol from the grip, caliber, trigger, sights and even color is suggestive.

Whatever you practice with a lot will become natural. I'm talking about grip angle, not sights, or what shade of pink flowers are on the side.

The guys who think Glocks have an unnatural grip angle are the guys who have most of their practice with 1911s or something with that angle. The opposite is true as well, except for guys who actually really do shoot a lot with all sorts of guns and realize the grip angle doesn't matter so much.

Maybe the grip angle does not matter to you, to me it means I no longer wish to shoot a Glock, and I can shoot what ever I please.
I never said Glocks have an unnatural grip angle, or that Glocks are not good pistols.
I said Glocks have a grip angle I prefer not to shoot. Apparently others feel the same way.
I did break my cherry on 1911s. I also had a Beretta M9 as my service pistol for a time. Still own Kimber's, and Springfield's. I also owned Glocks and liked them, up until the grip angle started to bother me.
I never got tired of the grip angle on any other pistols, though I did change my choice of caliber, sights, trigger, grip angle is no different. It is all about the individuals personnel choice.
If a Glock's grip angles suits your grip, more power to you. I hope it shoots well for you.

Please do not belittle others by saying they do not shoot enough just because they choose to not like the grip angle on Glock, or any other pistol just to justify your own preference in firearm.

Like what was said earlier, everything about a pistol is suggestive.

I really enjoy shooting my Sig P320 compact.  I also like the fact I can order barrels and different frames easily and have them shipped to my door.

Glock and Sig???? Owned both and enjoyed both, I've always been partial to a .45 regardless of apples and oranges. Shoot both and find out which one YOU like, or just buy both. :tup: :chuckle:
