    Suppressors Sig P220 Match

    Re: Sig P220 Match I would try a P220 SAO if you do not want to come up with the cash for the P220 Match, from what I hear the standard P220 is pretty accurate also. The standard SAO has a pretty nice tigger pull from the factory plus you will not have to deal with the fat wood grips.
