P226 Full Stainless Discontinued?

[yegor]

I tried to order one from wolverine today, but they told me that the full stainless steel model has been discontinued.

Is that right? Where would I still be able to get one (in GTA area)?

yes it is , some lucky CGN member managed to get the last one 2 weeks ago . Didnt know there were still some left NIB . I doubt you ll be as lucky as him . I ve been looking for months !!!!

Why would they discontinue them?

If you want a stainless 226 you now need to buy an ELITE, they are now the stainless version!

I talked to Ryan about the Stainless he had....I could have bought it. But I wanted an Elite.

Stainless Elite @ P & D.

Stainless @ Epps 2 weeks ago as well, not sure if it still there.

Elite has the wooden grip, I think it looks horrible.

Grips can be easily replaced.

Just to clarify...

There is the regular P226 ELITE ( alu frame)

and there is the P226 ELITE Stainless ( SS frame), which makes it about 10oz heavier than standard P226

I've never heard of a frame going on a sig. I wouldn't worry too much about getting a steel one. If one's there and availible go for it, if not, don't sweat it.

I love the Elite wood grips - would gladly trade you the stock black ones from my 226.
