SIG Sauer P290 Features

The SIG Sauer P290 is the sub-compact solution that lives alongside SIG’s P250 in that they are both obsolete now that the P365 and P320 have overshadowed their predecessors.  The P290 is a polymer frame pistol that is fired from a double-action trigger pull and operates on a Browning-style short recoil action with a tilting 2.9 inch barrel.

SIG Sauer P290 Capacity

The SIG P290 is chambered in 9x19mm Parabellum and feeds from single-stack magazines.  The flush-fit magazines hold 6 rounds while 8 round magazines include an extended floor plate.  The P290 is designed to feed any bullet type offered in 9mm, however the thin chamber walls don’t permit the use of +P loads.

SIG Sauer P290 Ergonomics

Ergonomics
The P290 does not have a manual safety and has a very small, short grip that might accommodate two supporting fingers if you have smaller hands.  The slide serrations lack any usable geometry, and the trigger pull is in excess of 10 pounds.  The grip is stippled on all four sides and the recoil is quite snappy.


SIG Sauer P290 Fit & Finish

Aside from the long, heavy trigger pull and the questionable grip size, the P290 is built with the same quality seen in the P250 and the P226.  It is available in all-black, or you can get one with a seemingly endless supply of different color schemes.


Fit and Finish

SIG Sauer P290 Concealability

Concealability
The P290 can easily be tucked away behind the belt or in an ankle holster and essentially go unnoticed, provided your clothes are long enough to keep it covered.  It would be smart to wear an undershirt when concealing this, as the grip texturing can be very abrasive on bare skin.
