Friend bought one used, I don't know much about Sig's, other than the 226 is pretty darn well regarded. 
Trigger is pulled, the round only goes off once per 5 or 6 trigger pulls. Slight dimple after the pull on the primer, so its like its getting light primer strikes. Local gunsmith didn't have any answers.

Local gunsmith didn't have any answers. When that happened to me, I had soaked the slide assembly and the pin channel eventually got clogged (cheap ammo). Not having skills, I called Sig and they fixed it, pronto. But there are more experts @ P250Sig Forum who can help |
| Are you using steel case ammo? This same thing happened with my new p290. I switched to brass case and I haven't had a problem since. Apparently the primers in steel case ammo aren't set flush like they are with brass case. I have shot dozens of boxes of the stuff through all kinds of pistols, including my 229 without issue. However, my 290 simply won't shoot the stuff. |
