The German Sigs are still top notch...US-made Sigs, not so much. I've had my P229 since 1996. It's seen an exceptional pistol and utterly reliable. I wouldn't buy a Sig these days, though. I see heaps of armorer frustration in the law enforcement market with the current versions of Sig's pistols.

But as with any other gun out there, you really need to put hundreds of rounds downrange without a problem before you can really trust it to defend your life.
have the XD 45 & the P220, both are excellent.

Yes. Any firearms manufacturer can make a good weapon on any given day. Some are just more likely than others to do it consistently.
