The "Sig"ness- vol 1.

Do your homework on these guys... googlefu sigsauerarmory scam.

thanks for the heads up.

I think that is a scam site. There are a bunch of those popping up. They have products that nobody else can source for prices below what others sell for and they don’t accept credit cards. Zelle or bitcoin only, so once the money is gone, it’s gone.

i hadn't even gotten to the payment page. i was just "excited" to see so many sigs for sell.

i would do a dos attack to shut em down....if i knew what that is...

Their prices are way too cheap!!!! Scam for sure!!!!

Plus they’re listing “new” 22 caliber conversion kits, and I don’t know how long it’s been since sig made those but it’s been a while!

i did a quick whois & ddomain search. that site is showing as owned by an online store called gillio firearms out of texas.

the last 2 places from texas i dealt with were shady af.

The .22lr kits were the big red flag for me too. Anyone that has unobtanium in stock and for a reasonable price but only with unprotected cash can't be legit in an age of overpriced primers disappearing within minutes of being posted.

A P320 AXG Equinox from the Custom Works…….

A couple more new ones…..

I added a couple of new Sigs to the family this week. This is a 2000 vintage German P220. The other is a new production P220 Legion SAO that I have not taken a picture of yet

I'd like to fondle an XTen at some point. Hopefully when I have money to spend, in case I like it.

Picked up one of these 9mm DAK P226s from GT Distributing for $380 last week; these days, that's a pretty killer price! I had most of the parts to convert it to DA/SA, and I did, but I'm not one of those that hates the DAK trigger. Wouldn't be my favorite on the range (where you are hyper focused on pull and reset), but it makes sense for a duty gun. Mine was in great shape, and came with 2 15-round MecGar mags, as well as the case and original paperwork.

You just have to love an honest, simple P226. Many of the latest, greatest guns can be a bit on the fragile side. God forbid, you get oil into the striker channel on a Glock.

What kind of parts cost is involved in converting a Sig from DAK to DA/SA ?

i priced the parts a few months ago. about $150.

there are kits out there but i have yet to see them in stock anywhere.

check out sigtalk. there are multi posts with parts lists. one of the guys that hangs out there is greg cotte(sp?)...the sig guru

i've been perving on that website all day.

now's my chance to replace the p226 that i stupidly sold years ago. and i like both my dak's. a p220 and a p229.

I added a set of Hogue G10 grips to the German P220 tonight, as well as giving it a good cleaning and lube. I still have not had it out to the range yet. Sadly, I won’t be getting it to the range any time soon as I have another run to Quincy, IL this weekend. Maybe I’ll take it out over Labor Day.

It does feels quite good with the G10 grips on it though.

Picked up my first P226 this week….. a dark elite. Beautiful pistol and look forward to shooting it. The aluminum grips are nice but I think they may give way to a nice set of G10’s.

Typically $150-200ish. You end up replacing quite a few parts, and it's nothing unmanageable, but it is kinda time-consuming. If you don't want to do it yourself, I think Sig will do it for you for $200, plus about $50 in shipping. In the past, I would have thought that was too expensive, but in this climate, getting a railed DA/SA P226 in 9mm for a little over $600 doesn't seem so bad.
