Of the group, I think the P225 is a best fit for most folks. Of course it isn't really part of the exact same family group, more like a grandfather than a sibling.
The grip, at one time, was considered to be very good for most people. Of course it was a single stack, basically a cut down P220 (M75 in the Swiss Army). It was developed for the German Police contract, which ended up creating 3 different pistols -- P5 from Walther, P6 from Sig-Sauer (later commercially designated P225), and the P7 (the "Squeeze Cocker") from H&K.

For reference, the above message is a reply to a message where: I agree that the "Silver Medal" idea is quite likely, though no one in gummint will ever admit it.  And you mention something else I tend to ignore--changing to the short trigger makes the line emminently more shootable--and this is actually great for the P228/P229, as they are shrunk down to reasonable size. The P226 is still too big all around. I added a short trigger to my P226 and that helped a lot, but I still disliked the overall size. Of the group, I think the P225 is a best fit for most folks. Of course it isn't really part of the exact same family group, more like a grandfather than a sibling.
