Fixed your opening post for you:

I have a problem. I have a p227 carry and a p220 carry. The 220 is no problem. The 227, I have trouble holding it in my hands but I can shoot it ok. I really like both Guns. Should I keep the 227 or get rid of it for another Sig that I can be more confident in shooting? Any input will be helpful. Thank you.


On to your question: If you're having issues holding the P227 grip wise, you'd be better off getting a firearm that'll fit your hand better. It'll help with your shooting skill in the long run.
 
What is the problem with your P227 grip? Is it too big, too slippery, or??

I believe you can change grips on your P227 if you have not tried that. Some Hogue G10 grips may work better.

Since you like the P220 grip check out the P225A in 9MM as you may like that too. Otherwise maybe the P320 series, if you don't mind a striker fired pistol, as you can change the frames to suit your grip size. I understand that the P227 grip is very similar to the P226 so not sure a P226 or P229 would suit you but maybe. In any case make an effort to try out what you are considering before you buy it and good luck.
 
I was dying for a p227 until I held the first one....I now own a p220.


2 more rounds isn't worth the bulk in the grip.
 
The Model 227 has the same "E2" grip as newer Model 226 pistols have. They fit my hand perfectly and, in the case of the Model 227, the two extra rounds are icing on the cake (when compared to the Model 220).

But, as Siggy-06 advised, no amount of "adapting" to a grip that doesn't fit you is worth the time or effort. Get a grip that fits!
 
Yes, ergonomics is obviously a very individual specific thing, so if you feel pretty confident that the gun doesn’t fit you hand you may need to move on. I held the P227 and really liked it, but since I already own a nice P220 not sure it’s worth the investment for me.
