So I ordered myself a new Sig today. Now I will be joining the ranks of CGNs Sig owners. I opted for the new Tactical Operations p226R with the srt trigger, night sights, truglo front sight extended beavertail, ergo grip, basically fully loaded model, supposed to come with 4 mags (if it were'nt for our laws they'd be super-capacity) hard case. Very excited about this. I've got to get out sometime soon to EOHC to do the range safety test and get a membership there, that too I am looking forward to. Hope to see some of you guys out at the range in a month or so when it all comes together for me!!!
:D:D:D:D

awesome man - welcome to the club! I really look forward to the day I can buy a second Sig, but there are different styles of guns on my list right now and until I buy those I won't buy another pistol :p
 
congrats and welcome to the SIG club, very good choice for a handgun !
I've to understand from yr description that you ordered a SIG 226 Elite...?

Very similar to the elite but with a few minor differences I believe. The elite was one of the 2 I was debating on but opted for the TAC.OPS. I do like the rosewood grips of the elite models though and will see if I can grab a pair maybe on EE when I get my pistol.

Nice choice! I bet your excited for it! Please post some pics of it when you get it. We all love gun ####. :rockOn:
 
Well done....:D, as a very happy sig sauer p229 elite owner all i can say is.............AWSEOME...........you wont be disappointed, i have over 1000rds down the pipe and not one FTF or FTE.
 
Twistedbrilliance indeed, to get a P226! I love mine.

As an aside, I just picked up a Sig STL-900 Laser/Light for mine. Wholesale Sports sells them for $360 plus the tax.....got mine, new in box out of the US on ebay for $137.50 USD, and didn't even get nicked for duty.

Nice light! and would look just right under your Sig.

if you have held the 226, the rosewood grips make the grip alot bigger/wider

Good to know. I have not seen the rosewood grips in person but they look nice in photos. I have only used the sig p225. Which I never see for sale or even on there website but it is military issue as a fellow I know carries it and I have used his.

An old friend of mine is a privately trained Blackwater dude. And he has something like 30,000 rounds through his and no issues yet.

I was looking at the insight x300, I always see it on spike personal defense tv show ads. It looks good to. I will have to search prices though
 
Sigs never felt good in my hands, but I'm waiting for Target Sports to bring more E2 models, ppl say their grips are a lot slimmer, plus they come with SRT for not too much $$.
 
Just got mine thursday!

I ordered the same model from Questar and it just arrived Thursday. I have not been out to shoot yet (hopefully Sunday or Monday:D), but it looks and feels great.

Congrats on the purchase and enjoy!!!

I was never really "into" Sigs mainly because I couldn't understand why they cost so much.
I just got a P220 Combat via a trade and love it!(thanks Patrick) Shoots real nice and the fit and finish is amazing. Now I'm drinking the Sig Koolaid.
Don't mean to hi-jack this thread but where can I order a Hogue rubber panel grip(minus the finger groves)?
Been checking all the Gunnutz dealers and Hogue USA wants $24.95 +$22 shipping:eek:
