No, I did not need another 9mm semi-auto pistol. I should be looking for ways to downsize but we know how that goes. :whistle: We ( me, myself, & I ) came across this one at the LGS, and "we" knew we were in trouble the minute we saw it. It was a unanimous decision. To be totally honest, I already own the Sig P210 Target and consider it to be one of the best fitting, best shooting, and most accurate semi-auto pistols in my collection . . . noting that I love all the 1911s and CZ 75s that I enjoy shooting. Anyway the workmanship on this Sig P210 Carry Custom, recently produced in Sig's Custom Shop, is very well done in my opinion. I recall reading somewhere they will only produce 500 of these ( but could be incorrect about that ) as a limited production run. I really like the scrollwork and deep, dark, highly polished finish on the slide along with the grips.

It's probably one that I will keep as a safe queen since I have several other CZs, a Sig, and 1911s - 9mm to use at the range. I did sacrifice one of my SA 1911 Commander-sized 9mm pistols as part of the trade and also had a sizable credit in the form of an LGS gift card which lessened the pain of the price tag.

Now that is beautiful! I think I would have traded something too! Which LGS had that? Do they have anymore?
My pictures do not do justice to the quality & appearance. The Sig website gives a better view - Sig P210 Carry Custom
The 210 Target has been bugging me. I don’t know anyone who owns one. I’m not a big fan of 9mm but I have owned quite a few. I do like Browning HPs and have the Comp model. It shoots as well as a K38 at 25’ & 50’ but not as well as a 52. I would like to try a 210 to see if it will outshoot the HP.
Friend of mine has one. It is an excellent pistol. Very very nice, with sublime trigger. Classic. Congratulations.

I have several CZs 😍 and they shoot very well as they fit my hand besides being very accurate even with my limited shooting skills. The same can be said of my 1911s. However, the Sig P210 Target using Sig Elite-Performance ammo is my top performer as the grips fit my hand slightly better and the trigger is great out of the box. Most of my CZs required Cajun Gunworks upgrades to improve the triggers. Out of the box, I feel the P210 Target trigger is slightly better than that of the P210 Carry Custom . . . but that could be my imagination. I'll have to do some tests with the trigger gauge. Note - I have a couple of High Powers as well, and while I like them, I had to upgrade the trigger & hammer with Cylinder & Slide parts so I could shoot them. I don't think you would go wrong with a Sig P210 . . . but of course, that's just my opinion. YMMV - ;)

I bought a P210 Standard nearly two years ago, I shoot it as well as any of my 9mm's including my Dan Wesson Vigil, out shoots any of my several CZ's.

Beautiful pistol. I was honestly torn between that and a CZ Shadow 2 when I was looking for a nice 9mm target pistol. Went with the SAO Shadow 2 though. I've recently learned that they discontinued the SAO version.

Very nice. I'm glad they only partially succumbed to fashion with the forward slide serrations, but didn't put a rail on the dustcover. If I can ever hold a P3210 Target I could see buying one.

Love the Sig 210 Target and the CZ! Hard to pick which is better. All I know the Cz TSO has the lightest trigger less than 2 pounds. It is scary light yeah it is accurate too! Recently picked up Walther Q5 Match with a polymer frame. What a pistol, polygonal rifling , fiber optic front, adjustable rear, optic cut for a dot sight and 3 15 round magazines. It is a striker fired pistol with a very short reset. Has 3 back straps to fit your hand. Only thing I can find wrong with it is the weight as it has more recoil impulse than the others I mentioned. You can buy the steel frame version for 5-600 dollars more if you think it is worth the price . At 900 dollars out the door I do not think you would be disappointed.
