I've had both, myself, and have neither, now.

Both are unique guns.

Ive never seen the 210.  I kind if like it.  It has a classy 1930's kind of look to it.  How is it in the performance and reliability department?

The SIG P210 (I had a P-210-6) is considered by many to be the best, most accurate and most reliable service pistol in 9mm ever made.  Period.

Mine came with a proof target showing a sub-2" group at 50 meters (roughly 55 yards), shot from a machine rest.

They are basically hand-fitted custom guns.  New ones start about about $2500 and go up from there.  SIG has begun producing them again after a several year gap.  The newest model, the 210-8, has the US-style mag release and an enlarged beavertail. (These guns will bite some chunky hands.)

I bought mine in 1997.  It was new in box, and made in 1976.

Great guns, but mags hold only 8 rounds, and they aren't the easiest guns to reload quickly -- due to the european-style mag releases.
