Thats so strange because the P226 and P228 feel like im holding a brick. I feel like I have to reach my trigger finger around my middle finger to get to the trigger. Its excruciatingly uncomfortable to me. But the P320 feels great, love it. I own two of them and look forward to buying a third.

The M11A-1 comes stock with the SRT (Short Reset Trigger) system(trigger reset after first pull is very short) and a light thin physical trigger known as the (SRT) Short Reach Trigger. I own one of these M11A-1's and I love it!! I have done a few modifications to mine. This is the gun I take when I go to tactical handgun training classes, and it would be the gun I would take if I had to pick a sidearm for a real live combat scenario.

The M11-A1 has both of SIGs SRTs. The Short Reach Trigger, thinner and excellent for smaller hands and the Short Reset Trigger with far less travel to reset. The Short Reset Trigger is actually a sear and safety kit, it does not alter the trigger at all.

I have a 25th anniversary M11-a1 & it's phenomenal. Although mine came with p228 grip on left side & Sig on right grip...lol.. the anniversary edition is a beautiful piece with a laser etched American Flag & anniversary dates. With the phosphate internals it works well for me, i own a towing company & I work outside in rain/snow & often crawling on the pavement or in ditches & so the coating is great for corrosion resistance, even when it doesn't get as much detailing as it deserves. The factory night sights are excellent even in low light, Better than my actual Trijicon add on ones on other pieces. I do kinda wish it had the ability to add a red dot window sight. But I love the piece too much to switch to another daily carry just for that. Great video.

Carried Sigs since 1987. West German made 226 and 220 were my first, in 90 picked up a 228, then a 245, 230, a newer 220 and last year found a very slightly used 229 Extreme. Absolutely great handguns. Only mods on the 228 was the SRT, finally put new Trijicons on it after the originals dulled, and found 15 rounders and one 18 rounder on the Wilson site.

@Olde English Outfitters : Great review. I would like to clear up some stuff for the viewership though. I see a lot of people ordering the redesigned trigger shoe (Short-Reach Trigger) thinking it is the "SRT" upgrade simply because the acronym fits. This is not the case. It's what you described at @3:17 . This particular pistol has the Short reset trigger (SRT) AND the Short-Reach Trigger shoe. What you described was that the redesigned trigger shoe was responsible for the short reset. This is inaccurate and a fault of sig's marketing and naming strategy which unnecessarily misleads/confuses interested buyers. The "Short Reset Trigger" or SRT is a redesigned sear and safety lever combo that reduces the trigger reset travel to about 3/32" vs the roughly 1/4" reset of their standard-series trigger reset. Something that the average shooter will notice for sure but not likely train enough to take advantage of its increased efficiency. Conversely, the new Short-Reach Trigger shoe was a way for Sig to avoid redesigning their grip frame while managing to reduce trigger reach for smaller-handed shooters. This added a selling point of "modularity" for interested potential agency purchases. It has nothing to do with the physical reset of the firearm's trigger system. You could install the same short-reach trigger shoe on a gun with a standard sear and the length of trigger pull, or the length of reset will not change. It just makes it easier for someone with smaller hands to gain leverage over the DA trigger pull. That being said, if you are someone with larger hands and you get a pistol with the short reach trigger and you boogerhook it, it WILL pinch you during the DA firing sequence, so if you have large paws, I would advise you to grab a standard trigger shoe or an upgraded, adjustable Gray guns trigger shoe ( a better investment). I hope this helps. I appreciate the great content. Keep it coming.

I heard Allen say this as well and understand the short reach trigger has nothing to do with short reset of the trigger. I installed a standard trigger on my M11 as I have long fingers and a large hand...the short reach trigger was not a good fit. The SRT on the other hand is a must have in my opinion. I've installed it on all P series I own.

Good video, I’ve got several Sig’s, two of which are the M11A1 and a single 228. Good overall gun the M11A1, hardly any complaints from me. It is actually one of my guns that has a higher round count, about 7000 rounds through it, my original M11A1. My newer one has just a few hundred and no idea the 228 as I purchased it used. My go to M11A1 has not just range window time but courses, outdoor in rain and mud. I shot 650 rounds in a course one day, another 500 or so the next day. It has not been perfect but shoot any gun enough, you will have failures, generally ammo or mags in my experience. I did have one hard failure of the gun. It’s original recoil spring snapped in half, somewhere near the 7000 round mark, took me a while to the slide off but it was effectively hard down as the slide locked in position. It is a gun I trust my life to if needed.

Great video! I bought the Sig M11-A1 when it was first introduced. One interesting note, mine has grips that say P228 instead of P229. I also have an older P228 made in Germany. Both are great guns. I use standard loads in the P228 and reserve +P loads for the stronger M11-A1. The M11-A1 is also my carry gun. I really like that quick reset trigger. I also own several Glocks and Springfield Armory pistols in different calibers, but the Sig M11-A1 is my favorite by far. Thank you for the video!

@@zed332l Hi Zed, yes those original Sig P228s and M1A had the older stamped slides and a a steady diet of +P and +P+ tended to be hard on the guns. The M11-A1 has a machined milled slide and is much stronger. As I said in my post 3 years ago, I own several brands of pistols, but the Sigs are hard to beat.

I have a P228. Great firearm. Had to go with 10 round mags because i live in a not so free state. One thing you didn’t mention is that the shooter could pull the hammer back on the first shot and avoid the double action altogether, but not many people would do that. I took a training class where the instructor had me put the pistol into single action before clearing a room to get the shot off faster and more accurately.

Once you go Sig that's it. It becomes your favorite pistol. No other pistol even compares. I have Glocks & 1911's, but they just don't cut it. It's design is superb, its feel and handling is natural and intuitive. It is of the highest quality and remarkably accurate right out of the box. Not a "cheap" weapon, but with Sig, you get what you pay for. I have NEVER been dissatisfied with any of my Sigs, but my 228 is my favorite! Looks like the big differences between this pistol, the M-11 is made in America, one piece slide, and the extractor is different. NICE REVIEW.

P228 was my first handgun purchase around ‘98. I think I paid $450 back then. Still have it. I learned about it from a college friend in ‘89 who was interested in firearms more than I was at the time. He was very excited about it when it was released, so I always remembered that particular handgun. So when I decided to buy, that’s the one I chose. Mine is stamped “ Made in Germany”. You folks who own the “Made in W. Germany” ones have the real gems. Thanks for the review.

Same with a P226 Scorpion and a P220 Combat gun. I am curious about the M11-A1, but in Kalifornia, we are screwed for newer guns...that's why I am modifying what I have...perhaps the P229 in .40 will be next...I also did the 1911 SS with a new scalloped trigger too.

The story, as Iv'e been given, is that the Army had arranged for a product demonstration for the SIG P225 because that was the pistol they were originally interested in. The SIG guys told the Army brass that they had a new double stack version of the P225 (The P228) that they might be interested in but the Army said no, the demonstration was to be for the P225 only. So the SIG guys said, "we'll do the P225 demonstration but bring some P228's along unofficially". After the official P225 demonstration was finished the SIG guys casually passed around their stash of P228's to the Army brass and thats when they changed their mind and went for the P228 instead.

We broke the breech block roll pins all the time. But we shot a lot also. Normal use probably wont see that. Other than that it was a good gun.

I too have the "Made in Germany" 228, and of all the pistols i have, it is my preferred carry. I love it, and like you, would not trade it for anything. I have a really nice 220 compact and 226 Navy, but my 228... well, you know what I'm talking about! She's my baby!

I think my grips said 228 when I bought a M11 a few years ago. I got the Sig aluminum grips (which I would not want shoot a lot rounds at a time as they are pretty tough on ones skin). I got this due to its resistance to salt in the air as I could take it with on a boat.

The M11-A1 is basically a P229 just marketed as the military version of the P228........it is not. The military M11 holds the original 13 rds that the P228 does. This M11-A1 holds 15 rds and uses the 2nd Gen P229-E mag.......even says this on the mag.......So to get things straight, the original P228 and P229 (9mm) and M-11 all hold 13 rds and can use the same mags. This newer M11-A1 will not be able to use any of the mags for the guns just mentioned. It uses the same mag as the 2nd Gen P229 of what was called the "E" version that had the ergonomic grip frame. It is my understanding that this M11-A1 is not used my the military or FED LE agencies, as they mostly use the original P228 or P229, or the M11.........Yeah, this M11-A1 has P228 grips and says right on it, but again, it is meant to appeal to people that knew the old P228 and were missing it badly.........but a shame that it cant use the same mags.....and can be a real life and death situation if you happen to have the older P228/P229 mags and the newer P229/M11-A1 and grab the wrong mag...........I liked the P228's made in Germany....or a rare find would be marked 'Made in West Germany".......before the wall was taken down.......

With All do Respect the P229 is NOT like the P228 because the P229 was designed from the Drawing Board to Shoot the 40SW and 357SIG Ammunition NOT just change the Size of the Hole in the Slide to accept a bigger diameter barrel so it could shoot the bigger caliber bullets. The P229 Magwell is Bigger than the P228 because the size of 40SW Rounds are Bigger and the P229 in 40sw can have a Flush fitting magazine that carries 12 rounds in the Magazine plus one in the chamber the same pistol in 9mm capacity goes UP to 15 rounds since the 9mm rounds are smaller so more rounds fit in the Magazine! The difference between a P229 and a P228 is that of a 1980s Porsche 911 and a 2020 Porsche 911 Turbo they are Both Porsches but the Technology used in the 2020 is FAR more advanced than in the 1980s one! The P229 development was ALSO Aided by the US Secret Service Adoption of the 40sw and later 357sig in the mid and late 1990s when Presidential Protection Detail Agents wanted to have a weapon that was more Concealable than the P226 but with a more POWERFUL Caliber than 9mm which both the 40SW and the later 357SIG are!
