    Difference between Grade 1 and Grade 2 "Made in Germany" Sig P226 refurbs?????

    Hey there. I'm curious about your "Made in Germany" P226 refurbs..........

    You advertise yours as Grade 2 for a very competitive price, while a few other dealers seem to have obtained Grade 1 units, but are selling those for a premium.

    Can you guys explain the difference between Grade 1 and Grade 2 refurbs?

    Whoops...........

    Just noticed you're selling Grade 1 units as well. Although your prices, as usual, are competitive.

    I would still like to know the difference between the two price points. Are you able to post a couple of pics showing what causes the +$100 differential?

    With my research before I bought my Sig 226 9mm, every store that was selling them for approx upto $1000, or close to. When you saw an advertised price around $845.00, they were refurbished like new from Sig. But if you go to Cabella's website for Canada, New for $879.00. So why would you buy a refurbished one for a Littlte less, go new.... But that's a Sig made in the States though.

    Just received my Grade 2, and it has minor wear....will post some pics later today. Very slight muzzle wear, most wear I can see is around the magwel, and the front of the grip (like were a ring would be on the hand)

    Other than that, it looks excellent! 10% off, and free shipping can't be beat.
    Crazy......but that's how it goes.
