My SIG P250 Review Part One

Finally got my filthy hands on my precious "SIG SAUER P250 Compact (Special Configuration)", which is what the label on the case says about the unit.

'First Impressions'
The gun is handsomely blocky, typical of SIGs, and the lower receiver is gorgeous to look at, just as it is on the picture. The grip is not so wide, perfect fit for my hand. The checkering on the front and back strap, along with the polymer material, is very nice to feel.

The front and rear sights are large and easy to align, and they have the three-dot sighting system. The dots are also luminescent, so you can easily see them under low light or under a dark environment.

Slide spring when cocking back seems relatively light, compared to my Norinco Model 59 (Makarov copy), or that of an M1911.

When the magazine is removed, my little finger loses an area to grip on to.
