This is where reality raises its often-ugly head. No replaceable backstraps here! The Sub-Compact ships with just the small grip frame, adorned with a nicely rounded triggerguard.

There are three different frame sizes ( Full Size, Compact and Sub-Compact), with a variety of grip sizes available for the Full Size and Compact frame sizes. Sig Sauer has had success with the P250, garnering a crowd of fans and supporters. This yielded any number of variations of the P250-changes in size, caliber and purpose-but all featured the exact same trigger, because the metal, serial-numbered trigger module was never changed, only moved to the new grip frame. Users could simply buy one size and then readily convert it to fit their present needs. The P250 was Sig Sauer’s effort to create a modular (not just using interchangeable grips) pistol that’s easily customizable. Other than the use of polymer, the new P250 bore few familial traits to the SigPro. RELATED: Gun Review – Deep Cover Sig P290RS I remember being struck by the excellent trigger and the gun’s consistent performance as it morphed from configuration to configuration. During a visit to Sig Sauer that year I had the good fortune of being allowed to shoot a few early models. The next polymer shooter from Sig Sauer was the P250, arriving in 2007. The SigPro, offered in mid-1998, included two features novel for the time: an integral Picatinny rail and two interchangeable grips. In 1998, Sig Sauer-known for making numerous all-metal, solid, super-reliable pistols historically regarded as some of the best handguns around (ask many elite military units!)-introduced its first polymer-framed pistol. As someone whose hands are in the medium range, I think it’s a bang-up idea! Additionally, in an effort to broaden their wares beyond the requirements of a specific hand and body size, many have developed pistols with adjustable backstraps-an idea not too novel today, perhaps, but a milestone when first conceived. This realization, in conjunction with the boom in concealed carry, has driven numerous major brands to develop smaller handguns in potent calibers.

Over the last decade, firearms manufacturers, especially handgun makers, have awoken to the fact that the terms “concealed carriers,” “military personnel” and “law enforcement officers” are gender neutral and convey no information at all about the user’s stature or ability.
