Are Sigs worth the extra money over Glocks?

Now I know first off that the most important thing is how they feel when I shoot them so I have to go to the range and try them both out, but I am looking at the Glock 23 or the Sig P226. Now I can get a glock 23 used with 3 13 rd mags for 345 or a used sig P226R with trijcon night sights and 3 mags for 525 in .40 cal Thanks for input.

That's a hell of a deal on the Glock if there's nothing wrong with it. 2 extra factory mags alone are worth $40. Then again the sig magazines are about $30 apiece so it's a tough call. I got my P229 with 2 for $425 so I feel i stumbled onto a bargain as well. My personal preference is for Sig b/c it fits me well though you really can't go wrong with the Glock at that price.

I need a new carry unit... looking at either the Glock 26 or the CZ 2075 RAMI.

Rather than start a new thread I'll ask here if anybody has any experience using Sellier & Bellot ammo. Cheaper than dirt has it in .357 SIG for ~$12/box and .40 for under $10. Reliability? Dirtiness? Any opinions would be appreciated.

Not personally but I would also recommend sportsmansguide.com for ammo deals. I've ordered lots of stuff from them and never had a problem but they do get backlogged sometimes on the deals.

Sportsman's guide has been my usual standby. I was a shareholder of the company until they went private a couple of months ago. I got a great deal on 7.69 from them before the shortage but then got burned on 1000 rounds of bunk Wolf 9mm from them recently. http://www.ammoman.com/index.htm has some bargains if he has what you're looking for b/c of the free shipping, which can add up on bulk ammo, due to the weight. I'm tempted to stock up on this S&B .357 sig b/c of the price, but I'm wary trying discount ammo since the Wolf fiasco.
