The "Sig"ness- vol 1.

That makes two unfired P226s this week for under $1800 total. I'm happy with that . Both got cleaned, lubed and shot today. Both are fantastic shooters.

I skipped a chance at a 227 Equinox today, hope I don't regret it.

I've been carrying my original P226 in .40 lately. It sure doesn't feel like a big gun when carried in the right holster

I've been searching for the right holster for my 229. What are you using for your 226?

My go to holsters for the last decade has been Kramer OWB in horsehide. Lately though, they have been making them larger than they did in the past and the larger one’s don’t carry as well for me. For instance, I have a G21 holster from them that by chance, fits my P226 perfectly. I’ve had it a couple of years and it’s mid-sized. Last spring, I ordered a holster specific to my P229 and it is larger than the G21 holster and does not carry as well as the P226 does in the G21 holster.

I also ordered a P226 non railed holster and it arrived in August and is another large holster. It carries well but the P226 in the P226 specific holster does not carry as well as the railed P226 does in the G21 holster.

All that said, I still find that the Kramer holsters work best for me but maybe I just got used to them. I do like horsehide as a holster material. It’s hard molded like Kydex but easy on the guns finish like leather

I took the pair of new P226s back to the range today to get each of them over the 200 round mark. I don't think either needs a thing other that to be shot a bunch

Picked up my p220 parts from AllenM. Looks so much better. Frame is black. Can't remember the exact silver he used but it contrasts real nice.

That looks really good. Was that done locally?

Thank you. I'll have to keep him in mind for my next project.

Looks great, my friend ! .... have you chosen your grips ? Some stabilized mammoth tooth would make it totally unique.

Allen in Avon at his bodyshop. He's a great guy and does great work.

I've been on the hunt for some rosewood grips, having a hard time finding them for an Elite(SAO). Most I find are for DA with decocker. Mammoth tooth would be cool as well...

I would highly recommend. He did the Cerakote on these slides and other bits for me.
Youll have to excuse the glocks in a sig thread. My AXG and slide was misplaced by USPS or i would have a really sweet piece to showcase his talent.

I prefer leather pancake holsters: Nice tight carry, easy on the gun's finish, and on the occasion that it gets exposed, leather just looks right. IMO

I saw that USDS has a used Sig P239 Scorpion in .357 Sig in their case right now. It’s very cool but bigger than I thought it would be. That would make it an excellent shooter though.

I shudder to think about the price.

Mine isn’t a Scorpion but the 239 in 357 is a hoot to shoot. i think the fireball is better than the 229 But that might be in my head. it is a bit heavy and big for the capacity.
