SIG SAUER P250
SIG have just launched the new SIG SAUER P250 pistol. What makes this pistol interesting is its ability to change calibers!
The frame and fire control groups are available for calibers 9mm, .45, .40 S&W and .357SIG can be changed into three different families of grips: Subcompact, Compact and Full (each available in three sizes). Two types of triggers, standard and short. Very cool!
Overall there are (including left/right hand configuration) 144 different combinations, not bad straight out of the factory.

The P250, a modular pistol that allows the shooter to change caliber and size at will.
The SIG SAUER P250 was designed specifically to address the future needs of the military, law enforcement, and civilian shooters around the world. The P250 will be available in the most popular calibers;(9mm, .357SIG, .40S&W and .45ACP). The P250’s innovative design enables the shooter to quickly remove the functional mechanism and place it into the polymer grip of his choice. This allows an immediate change in caliber and size;(subcompact, compact and full). And after any change the pistol delivers both outstanding accuracy and reliable functionality.
It’s modularity not only provides incredible ease of maintenance, but also provides a solution for accommodating different hand sizes - there are 6 different ergonomic combinations for each size, accomplished by changes in grip circumference and trigger style. Now you can own the world’s only modular shooting system globally engineered to deliver the “to hell and back” reliability you’ve come to expect from Sig Sauer.

Hi, welcome to my blog! This blog is dedicated to all things firearms related. I hope you enjoy it.
The iconic IMI Desert Eagle also allows caliber changes. From .357 Magnum, to .41 Remington Magnum, to .44 Magnum and to .50AE.
Swap the bolt, barrel and magazine and you’re good to go!
(I don’t see the .41 Remingtons offered anymore at the Magnum Research site, so I’m glad I got one when I did!)
A couple nother caliber swapping guns I like are the Micro-Uzi (9mm and .45 Auto); and my AR-17 (.22 LR, .223 Rem, and .50 BMG)
Sweetness.
I had forgotten about the Desert Eagle!
SIG should have offered a .22LR conversion, even if it was more expensive than the other calibers it would have been popular.
I saw a photo of your AR-17 .50 BMG

I got to handle one tonight, and was so disappointed. The trigger doesn’t reset until it’s completely let up, and there’s no click to help you find it. That’s forever going to handicap this pistol when it comes to fast shooting. Even the DAK trigger resets about halfway back through its travel, and offers a noticeable click. I’m sure it’s very reliable and accurate - it’s a SIG - but if this is the direction they’re moving, I’m glad I got the P239 DAKs when I did.
Just got mine the other day and have fired 550rds so far. Very accurate and very quick to shoot. changed from a glock/xd carry and don’t feel like I gained more than I may have lost. Very quick follow up shots. Very easy to clean. Gun is very light, made my xd9 feel like a brick.
Made a typo, I DO feel like I gained more than I may have lost. Good price for a good gun
Hi Robert, thanks for the info. What caliber and configuration where you using? Are you planning on purchasing other configurations?
Do you agree with Jason’s above comment about the trigger?
I’ve put about 1500 rounds through mine and I gotta say, for a DAO, it’s pretty nice. I agree it doesnt have the reset my G23 and G19 has, but the light as a feather trigger more than makes up for that. I wholeheartidly disagree with anyone who says you can’t fire this weapon fast. Believe me, you can. You just have to pull your old revolver finger out, thats all. In April when SIG releases the short trigger (not the short reset, but rather a trigger geared for those with shorter fingers) this gun will be damn near perfect, for a DAO. And all this coming from a guy whose so in love with his SIG P226Navy that I named her jennifer and refuse to date any girl who isn’t names Jennifer also…mostly so I don’t have to remember whose name I’m calling out in the sack…hee hee hee.
I bought the P250 two-tone and am very happy with its accuracy, reliability and lightness. I also like the 16 round capacity (9mm) in a compact gun.
We bought our sig p250 a week ago, we put 100rds through. Very nice, very smooth and easy to operate. Did have one jam though,it faied to eject the old casing.
Had a friend with us who has a springfield hd 9mm, compared the two, and now wants to buy the Sig. Very Nice peice!
