But this isn’t a Glock and we don’t live in a perfect world. Do I wish it had the same functionality as my G19’s extended slide stop? You betcha. Locking the slide to the rear is mostly an administrative action so it’s not a critical fault. I CAN do it, but there is a great deal of breaking my firing grip to press my finger in and up hard enough to activate the lock. While I can usually operate slide stops with the flat of my trigger finger between the first and second knuckle, that isn’t a trick I can easily pull off with the P290. If you’re wrong-handed like me, it’s a chore. Shooting it right handed your thumb can readily lock back and drop the slide. It is artfully blended into the lines of the gun and really doesn’t increase the functional width of the gun. With the P290 being a DAO there is only the slide stop lever to worry about. As such Sig pistols in general are a bit of a chore to manipulate the controls on. I will have to blame this last problem on my parents, my upbringing, that I was homeschooled and that we rooted for the Cubs – I’m left handed. Another thing to mention is that in 500 rounds I haven’t had a single malfunction, with either ball or Speer Gold Dots. I can’t say the same about 100 rounds out of my J-Frame or my old PM40. At the end I was still fresh and could have shot another 100. The longest shooting session I’ve had was a 100 round string. Even with its snappiness I never found the recoil to be uncomfortable. The pistol is snappy but that’s a function of its size. The pistol weighs in at 20 oz and compared to other lighter subcompact 9mms the extra couple of ounces helps with recoil and followup. The P290 is available in double action only (DAO). Even shooting some of my hotter handloads, recoil was very manageable. OctoSIG Sauer has introduced its P290 Sub-Compact 9mm pistol as an additional concealed carry option that 'puts all the power of a full-size 9mm in a lightweight and versatile polymer pistol design,' according to SIG. Shooting the 290 isn’t as unpleasant as some of the other subcompacts that I have shot. I chose the latter and Sig got the front sight to me later that week.

One was to have the slide shipped back to them for their gunsmiths to install a new front sight.

To Sig’s credit when I brought this to their attention they were quick to offer me two solutions. That is to say the tritium either wasn’t present or had been damaged so the front sight wasn’t visible in low light. I discovered that the front sight was dead from the factory. The sights are also one of my gripes with the gun. The rear sight has a flat front which assists in performing single hand malfunction clearances. The pistol is equipped with the three dot Sig Lite night sights. I was comparing the new models out there and discovered that Sig Sauer now offers a very reasonably priced (< $500) 9mm single stack subcompact in the P290RS. I know 9mm subcompacts are a dime a dozen and I’ve cycled through my fair share of carry guns over the years.
