How does the trigger compare to either a 1911 or a DA/SA Sig in SA mode? Also, how does the safety work? Can the safety be used with the hammer uncocked? Can the slide be racked with the safety engaged?
Thanks.
Thanks.

Does anyone have any experience with SAO Sigs?

Safety? On a Sig? What is this safety you speak of? Didn't think any Sigs had a safety.
I guess you learn something new every other day.
If the others are anything like my X-Five is, the trigger is best described as "f**king awesome". Reset is short, pull is light... pull is probably less than 4 pounds, easily, probably lower than that even. The reset is easily a fifth of the distance it would be on a regular DA/SA sig in SA mode... its very short.
If you are going to carry one it basically works like a 1911, there is no decocker. The safety has a positive detent to it of sorts, that's inside the gun. At least on the X-Five, the slide also locks when the safety is on, similar to a 1911.
Dunno if the P220 SAO etc, are like this, but on the X-Five you have to watch the grip panels. If you haphazardly remove the grip panels, you will be greeted to flying springs. This really isn't a big deal, you just have to be careful/gentle after you unscrew the panels.

The answers to your questions are -Yes & Yes. The slide will lock back with the safety on and the hammer can be forward with the safety on. I worked on the range at SIG for 2 years and shot may of these. Nice pistol. However I personally prefer DA/SA. But thats a matter of preferance.
