I have a Sig Comp. and like it alot.
Never shot the Glock.

 

I love my G44, because its accurate, reliable and very easy to COMPLETELY take apart for cleaning and maintenance. I can disassemble every piece of it, in less than 30 seconds.

From about 35' away:

Realize you won't be able to put an optic on the polymer Glock 44 slide, however, there are aftermarket accessories for it. I run a Wolff 5-lb spring, a Lone Wolf connector, and a Glock Performance Trigger in mine. Great shooter.

 

+1 for G44 - I have the exact same sentiment for that pistol, love it!!!

 

I had a Glock 44. I have a SIG P322. I like the SIG better. Easy to mount a Holosun K footprint optic.

 

Agree 100%, had a Glock 44 ran fine, old eyes need a dot to shoot well. The sig has ran flawlessly with CCI mini mags and easy to clean. Been a Glock fan for 35 years. When they make the 44 optics ready I’ll have one of those also

 

I have no first hand experience with the Sig 322 but I have a Glock 44 which I like. I also have an Advantage Arms 19/23 Gen 2/3 MOD optics read kit on a Combat Armory frame. Advantage Arms sell optics ready Glock kits for 17/22, 19/23 and 26/27 for all generations. If you really want a RDS on a rimfire Glock the Advantage Arms MOD optics ready conversion kit is a viable option. Lanbo’s Armory is a good source for AA kits and magazines.

Here is a picture of my AA 17/22 Target kit on a Glock 17 frame and my 19/23 MOD kit with a fifteen round AA magazine in the well of my Combat Armory frame. The fifteen and twenty five round 22 LR mags protrude below the Glock mag well.

Nice stippling.and I can get an optic cut slide. Any trigger changes?

 

im a sig fan - i never could get used to the glock grip - thats my only complaint , otherwise i might like them , but being a 1811 person from the start , sigs are my go-to these days

 

whats the average price on these two firearms?

 

The Sigs run from $325-$550 (for the comp).

 

I own both. The Sig is 5 of 5 stars. Glock is 3 of 5 stars. The ability to mount an optic on the Sig, better trigger, and more magazine count are the top advantages.

 

Neither

 

Got my G-44 several years ago, great shooter. I do wish optics were an option though. Tempted to try that small Leupold, the one that hangs off the back, but I’m not confident even that would work.

 

I don't know about the Glock but the SIG is threaded. My Grandson has a relatively small RF suppressor which makes the little 322 even more enjoyable to shoot. Both of us have RD sights, mine is the Romeo and his is a Holosun of some sort or another.

From what I see the prices, all things being equal, are very comparable but the SIG is optics ready and, as I stated earlier threaded, which may or may not be of any consequence to you.

I'm a huge S&W revolver fan, have been for 50+ years, but when it comes time to go shoot 22 handgun, it seems the little SIG just magically appears.

Yes, a modicum of care must be exercised when loading the magazines, but if one can't do that, perhaps they should not be around firearms to begin with.

 

I've had excellent luck with the Glock 44's I've owned. The downside of course is the red dot mounting issue.

Personally, given their QC issues lately--and worse yet, their absolute REFUSAL to--- 1. Admit a problem and 2. To do anything about it, I wouldn't buy ANYTHING with the SIG name on it. I say that as someone who owns several Sigs. The company is a smouldering, stinking, pile of garbage at the moment in my opinion.

 

Glock 44 is junk, glock knows its junk and they dont care they just know people will buy the name. When I went through glock armors school I asked the guy why they went with a polygonal rifling he did not answer even when I pressed further that 99% of 22 ammo is lead projectile. He barked back its the best 22 pistol you can buy and that was the end of it. When I was working at my LGS we didnt really sell them nor did the owners want to the P322 is way better, the Taurus TX22 is better.
Grand power K22 is king of the heap in my book just not common here.

The G44 is most certainly not junk. Mine is incredibly reliable and accurate. I even shoot Monday Night Bullseye competition with it and do pretty well, never had a malfunction or needed to do a reshoot with it unlike many Ruger Mark series I see jamming up on the line every week.

 

Well I know the Glock 44 is “not the best .22…” but I’ve had great luck with Glocks overall, just haven’t tried the 44. I have shot the Sig P322 suppressed and liked it, although still prefer my Buckmark overall. Just looking for a more modern semi. I have only owned one Taurus and got rid of it pretty quickly. I will check out TX22 though since it does get some favorable comments and offers a great price point.

 

There is nothing wrong with the TX22. I've seen many, many good reports on them from serious shooters. Only reason I don't own one is because I own other guns that fill that niche.

To me, I have two different kinds of rimfire pistols- Guns that sub in for centerfire weapons for self defense drills and guns that I just shoot targets with, train new shooters with, hunt with etc...So, I have a Beretta 92 .22 and a Glock 44 along with rimfire conversions for a CZ and 1911. Then for "playing guns" I have a bunch of Smith Wheelguns, Buckmarks and Ruger MK 2's. Never saw the need to add another holster, magazine, spare parts etc...to the mix.

 

My TX-22 Competition SCR has been great. I actually shoot Steel Challenge with it, and have seen a few others in matches also. In Steel Challenge reliability is paramount.

2 guns I have not seen at SC matches, g44 and P322.

 

Just got the Sig P322. Very happy with it after first range trip, about 250 rounds. The only time I had any issues was once when i was sloppy about loading the magazine. I mostly ran CCI Mini Mags in it and it loved them. And when i got it home, it was very clear.
Also great stippling, optic ready slide and it is super easy to field strip.
Only complaint is sometimes the empty plastic mags don't drop free, you have to help them a bit. Would only be an issue if you are using it for defense or competition. I wonder if there is a way to put a bit of weight in the magazine floorplate to help it drop out of the magwell?
Anyway I'd say the P322 would be a good choice.

 

When I bought my P322 at the first of the year I went by which one felt the best in my hand. I had heard of some of the loading nightmares with the SIG. Talked to SIG and watched some decent vids and reviews before I bought it and felt good about my choice. Mine shoots CCI MiniMags, Remington Ranch Hands and Remmy Golden Bullets without issues.
I’m in the 2000 round neighborhood range of rounds through it. Lately I’ve been shooting some cheaper ammo through it and it has had no issues feeding them. Much to my surprise it recently handled those cheap Remington Cyclones without feeding, ejecting or firing issues. This ammo is clearly the dirtiest .22 ammo I’ve ever used in my life.
The Cyclones did not pattern real well for me but it could have been my fault by not concentrating properly. Was more amazed that they cycled ok.
I’m pretty convinced that gun cleaning and keeping aware of proper magazine loading is key to the P322 cycling properly.
I’m not using mine in any competition and have no desire to use it as personal protection, so taking a bit of extra time when loading magazines is not a problem.

 

Not looking for either as usual personal protection, I have other options for that. However, I am often in rural and forested areas with varmint and predator opportunities and a .22 fits the bill for most of the small stuff encountered.

 

The FN is a good option to consider also.

 

I’m no expert but my grandson and I run across these guys quite often while out trout fishing. He thinks it’s a Water Moccasin. I think it’s an I don’t know but I’m not interested in it. Ran across him last season about this same time on the way back to the truck.

Looks like diagonal instead of round pupils…usually a sign to beware. Get in a little closer for a better picture. 😆

 

That was close enough. Was using some zoom on my phone that day for sure. I was close enough. Crazy all the odd stuff you run across while out.
The other morning is was out in the middle of the stream. No one around but me and the man upstairs. The next thing I start to hear is this gravely gargely type noise, it was this pretty big skunk 🦨, easily bigger than a house cat eating along the stream edge. Probably eating scuds or crawfish. Most people picture a skunk as a shiney black with a brilliant white strip like Pepe Le Poo but this guy was dirtier than heck. No mange look to it. Just dirty. White stripe had a dirty yellow silvery white stripe look. Wish I took a pic.

 

Skunks and venomous snakes…not sure if I’d want to fish your river. 😮

 

im partial to the sig ,

 

The Sig over the Glock. No question.

But my Taurus is better than my Sig. It took a while for my 322 to become reliable. The Taurus has been 100% reliable.

And my S&W Victory is better than all the rest. Except limited to 10 rounds.

 

You're joking, right? The Sig? With all the hammer spring problems we read about? Come on, man...and the Sig is hammer-fired, not the vastly superior striker-fired system found in the Glock 44.

 

i dont dislike my S&W victory , its always in the bag , but i prefer the sig 3222 , i dont own a glock - they never fit my hand correctly , im a 1911 fan , my kimber conversion unit sees a lot of range time

 

Interesting. Glocks and Sigs both work for me in the semi-auto category, just haven’t shot the Glock .22 version. I have now shot an Sig 322, with a suppressor. The threaded barrel option may be my tipping point Ironically I still favor my Buckmark.

 

I kinda mirror those thoughts.
I have an older Buckmark 5.5 Bullseye that is IMHO a top notch pistol. My newest Sig P 322 C is also a great piece.
The 5.5 is a touch more accurate and has a better trigger (not by much though).
What the Sig ( to me) excells at is speed in target acquisition and ability to stay on target in rapid fire strings with the bonus of higher capacity magazines. The compensator helps a lot in this part as does the dot sight in acquiring the targets.

 

I have quite a bit of rounds thru my P322 now. As of lately I’ve been cycling a bunch of stuff that I’ve had stashed away and partial boxes of. My shell of choice is the CCI MiniMag and the Remmy Ranch Hands. But this older cheaper Remmy stuff has been cycling very well. I have no regrets buying my SIG. Very fun. But I’m not even going to compare it to my BuckMark, whole different animal from the way it feel to the overall accuracy.
I’m not a shooter that would normally grab a .22 lr handgun for home or personal protection. But I do realize it is very capable and efficiently will do so.
Sometime in the future I’d like to cycle some .22 lr personal protection loads or .22 lr hyper velocity 40 gr. Loads thru it. The PP loads seem light ~30 gr. But have the velocity. Where as the hyper velocity have the hollow point bullet weight. I’m not a ballistic guy.
