Hi guys having a snow day today in NY so went to my local places and came across a like new MK25 . Being what I consider a sig person I have 6 all p series mostly , I really don't see one I don't like lol just thought I would check who has one and if it's anything above my west german 226 ? I'm sure the anchor on the slide has me drawn in . They are asking 950 looking for your input thanks in advance

Well theoretically it has extra nice stuff and some modest differences. 1913 rail, corrosion stuff and a few others that may or may not excite you. But I mostly think of it as a very nice 226. I don't know about NY but if there was one around here at 950 I would buy it in a heartbeat.

In today's market, buy it. If you have sellers remorse, you can likely sell it for more. Win either way.

Probably a good price for New York State..
used or new?

personally I think they put the anchor on the wrong side.... But just like with the Legions it's mostly marketing... but I have to admit they got me on both the MK-25 and the Legion train.

They got me on the legion train also but that has some nice upgrades . I know there is a chrome lined barrel and a phosphate coating on the parts and the anchor of course but other than that it's a really cool 226 .

If you really like the 226 lineup, you should have one of them in the family. Smile

I've been salivating for a MK25 226 for years. But with an Exetor 226 and an early 80's 226 already sitting in the safe, it's been a bit difficult to ... Pull the Trigger (pun intended) on one. But, knowing me as I do, I probably will soon.

Got one in un-fired condition a few years back for $850 and it is in the safe in the condition I bought it.

I had to sell my MK25 recently, as my hvac and fridge died at the same time. It really is a nice gun and the standard rail makes it even better. I added an E2 grip kit to mine and I much preferred it over the standard grips. For $950, that is not a bad deal right now. I had the Cali. model and only $900.00.

I've owned various 226s since the '80s, carried a 226 every working day for several years. I've had a MK25 for several years now. The MK25 has the features mentioned, but I don't consider it better than the WG 226s I've owned, just different. Mine hasn't been shot a lot, but has been literally 100% reliable with any and all of the several types of ammunition I've tried. I do like the fact it has a regular 1913 type rail, rather than SIG's proprietary rail. I don't know current prices.

I always wondered why the UID label was reversed on the German framed mk25. It's a great pistol.

My UID sticker fell off so it’s just sitting in the box. I could probably reverse mine as well with a little stick glue. Lol I’m kind of amazed anyone’s stays on at all. I have a Legion and a Mk25. They both are very nice. As a Navy guy though I have to give the nod to the Mk25.

The MK25 seems to be the nicest 226 on the CA roster. Given that off-roster guns are commanding huge markups in CA, the MK25 with GGI trigger enhancement might be a nice ticket here in Kommiefornia.
