Sig Sauer 2022 40s&w Night Sight 12rd Mags $439 Shipped To Your FFL @ BUDS

Considering purchasing this deeply.

Just this afternoon I put about 50 rnds through my 2022 in 9mm.

If you're looking for a high end, well designed and crafted firearm as a great price, jump on this. At $439 delivered this is probably one of the top 3 deals out there currently - more like #1.

I don't think Buds would swap out for 10 rnd mags - so no go in CA - too bad, I'd seriously consider ordering one otherwise.

Hot - and it includes the self illuminating 3 dot sights (like the Trjicons) right out of the box which is huge.

Decided to "pull the trigger"

I had an Xd for a while, the 2022 just fits me better. If an Xd conforms to your hand, buy it, because for me that's the key. However, if they both fit, then I think the victory goes to the Sig. The workmanship is more refined, and the trigger pull is without a doubt smoother. My guess is that the Sig will retain value better. On the flip side the Xd has far more aftermarket accessorizes. Speaking of which, typically the Xd comes with a few extras (holster - mag holster etc,) - but they're pretty low quality and I wouldn't place too high a value on them. But in the end - favor the model that you shoot best with - that is the money shot.

Oh man, if I didn't have a Glock 22 already. This looks nice. Worth at least $650 with the night sights. What a deal.

9mm out of stock.

They add 3% if you don't pay by check or money order.Then I guess you have to wait until the check or MO gets there before they ship.

I ordered yesterday and today got an email saying they will not ship to Maryland because they don't have a fired shell casing.

It's REALLY messed up that they don't make that clear before you sign up and spend time browsing.I'd say this isn't a credible company and I would advise avoiding it at all costs.If there were to be an issue with your purchase I doubt they would be cooperative.They also have a very sneaky out clause in that once the transfer from the FFL takes place they absolve themselves of any responsibility for defects or errors.

I'm not a gun person, what "Available in 9mm, .357 SIG and .40 S&W" means?

lucky777 said: Does it mean there are 3 different versions of the same gun is manufactured but this particular one is 40 S & W? Is 9mm caliber more common and ammunition is cheaper?

I think all 3 types of ammo are just about as scarce as the others, .40 cal is the most lethal and probably the easiest to find of the three due it being carried by law enforcement. They're all about the same price.

9mm is going to have the cheapest ammo, but the least amount of stopping power of the three rounds. That being said, I love 9mm's because you can practice cheaper, the magazines hold more rounds and you can typically get follow up shots faster since there's less recoil/muzzle flip.

.357 Sig is basically a crimped down .40 cal round with a higher muzzle velocity than either the 9mm or .40 (about 1400 FPS) Ammo is relatively expensive in .357 sig.

.40 cal is the caliber of choice for most law enforcement agencies simply because it combines good stopping power with fairly moderate recoil. As noted above, ammo costs more than the 9mm, but in my experience is still a little cheaper than .357 sig ammo.

(Before we start a board war, muzzle velocities change based on the load used, and the examples I gave were for the average load, not taking +P type ammo into consideration.)_

So wait... the company contacted you and advised of a possible issue with selling you the firearm BEFORE you paid thus avoiding a major headache for you and everyone else involved? Instead of bagging on a company that helped prevent you making a possibly expensive mistake perhaps you should look to your state government's stupid gun laws and channel your angst where it belongs? It's not Bud's fault that Maryland restricts the firearms you can purchase. A less scrupulous seller may well have charged you, sent the gun to your FFL and let you find out it could not legally be transferred to you after the fact which would have been a lot messier.

As far as Bud's excusing themselves of liability once they transfer to another FFL... Bud's is effectively forced to use a middle-man or your choosing since you don't have your own license, they have no control over what this third party is going to do with the firearm before it reaches your hands. For all they know the FFL could be swapping new parts for used or cheap replacements on the gun before it reaches your hands which is totally out of Bud's control. This limit of liability isn't uncommon when I've done third party FFL transfers and I don't see why it should be an issue if your local FFL is reputable. If you're not comfortable with this sort of transaction you can certainly pay more and buy directly from a local gun shop instead.

Not exactly. They charged my Visa, then canceled the sale.They held the funds for 5 days.

I'd rather not have anything to do with Bud's in any way , shape or form, but I think I would be remiss by not making the situation a bit more clear, since this relates to this particular deal.

They also applied a a charge of $1 for what they called a "verification check". They only refunded that because I called them out on it, and then they tried to make it out like I was in the wrong by worrying about such a trivial sum.I'm not that good at math, but I think that $1 x as many people as you can take it from = $$$$$$.Not to mention the interest. Laugh if you want, but that adds up when you've got thousands of peoples money who have been debited for $500+ in your account drawing interest.
They also admit ( do a google) to having thousands of mishandled transactions. Their explanation is that they have 200,000+ customers and have only ,umm,jerked a couple thousand of them around and so it's all fine.They proudly exclaim that they have reputation ratings on some sites of 99% positive.Their employees speak of these thousands of unhappy customers in derogatory terms like "the one percenters"( as in those who deign to question the almighty Bud's authority).
This was my first and only and last contact with Buds.I am merely relating my experience as is related to this particular deal.

man this is hard to resist, I wish they had the 9mm.

Mine arrived today, went straight to the range with it, and my Glock 22 and put about 100 rounds through each of them. The is very well made, these are Sig's polymer model 9s and .40s, with a polymer instead of steel body, but it feels very good, very high end. The po-bo's are a little lighter than the steel, but by no means light or flimsy feeling.. As stated above, the slide, action and trigger are amazing. Double-handing it, it's the best feelng gun I've shot, I like to wrap my index finger around the front of the trigger guard, and this gun feels very natural that way. I also haven't taken it down yet for cleaning, but I'm looking forward to that experience.

At the range where I shoot, it was $659 and $729 at another shop next door (with a laser grip.) That's almost $200 off for Buds. I usually find shooting new double-actions a bit disheartening at first, this is the first one where I felt completely at home with the gun from the first magazine. I only had 1/2 hour so I didn't get to seriously put it through its paces, but I will spend a lot more time with it this weekend.

I'd get one of these before they run out. It's a great gun, and for $439, it's a stupid deal.
