Sig Sauer P290, P290RS

The Sig P290 was introduced by Sig in 2011, and was advertised as a “sub-compact 9mm”. The “sub-compact” moniker is open to debate, especially compared to the more popular Sig P938, which is only slightly larger. From a technical specs perspective, the P290 is the smallest 9mm that Sig currently offers.

While the P290 had a successful launch, there were a number of reported issues with light primer strikes and FTF issues. Many of the first generation models ended up being sent back to Sig for work.

In May of 2012, Sig introduced the 2nd generation of the Sig P290, called the P290RS. The P290RS featured a slightly redesigned trigger system that addressed the issues commonly found on the 1st generation guns. Other than the newer trigger system and a few cosmetic changes, the RS model has the same dimensions as the 1st generation.

Both generations are designed on a Browning type tilting barrel system with a double action only firing system. The P290 and P290Rs come with a 6 round magazine and an aftermarket 8 round magazine.
