I've owned both and sold both.
Beretta inox 92 and a West German Sig P226 9mm.
I've dabbled in replacing the Sig if I could ever find a decent deal like I did when I purchased it (around 500 bucks with 5 mags).
They're both over sized for the caliber, which is both good and bad. Both are good guns, well made, reliable.
The sig, in rapid fire, handled itself better- EG, on target quicker, faster on reload, more accurate. I'm not sure why. I think the Beretta, especially italian inox like mine was, is much prettier. The sig 226 is my favorite 'fightin' nine.
For my realistic needs I couldn't see NEEDING anything more than a glock 26...I'm not military or police.
Anyway, like I said I've sought to replace the Sig, and I really only miss the Beretta sometimes because boy howdy was it purty!
I would say sig unless having a safety is important to you.
