Hello, All! Not anything unseen around here, just a very clean P226R with case & two factory magazines. I’ve observed for a while now, (more than a couple of years) that there seems to be a glut on good deals to be had. Either that, or I’m just having some great luck finding deals... I picked this up for less than $430, cash deal at a pawn shop. Say what you will about pawn shops, my experience has been that some will come down, significantly. Of course, it helps to be a regular customer for many years.     Former US Army, Sgt., 82nd Abn. Div. Paratrooper, Infantryman, (81mm Mortars) Certified Armorer Love God, Country, & Family | ||

Real nice score for $430. I probably would have jumped too. | |||

Thanks, guys! This is my first in .357 SIG, although I plan on buying a barrel in that caliber for my recently-acquired P229 (.40 S&W). I’ve heard from a shooting buddy that it’s a great caliber. Anyone else have a similar experience, regarding prices on used (or new) handguns? Maybe, it’s my specific area. Former US Army, Sgt., 82nd Abn. Div.

In short, helluva deal. My own P226R .40 is one of my favorites. Pic #3 is very interesting. Didn't realize Texas had UFO's. I thought Arizona had a corner on the market.  ______________________ An expert is one who knows more and more about less and less until he knows absolutely everything about nothing. --Nicholas Murray Butler | |||

Nice, I would have jumped all over that. I have a 229 in .357 that I would like even better if ammo was a bit cheaper. .40 is easier for me to find locally so that's what I mainly shoot out of it. Gotta bring some though and zap the gong at 75 yds. Take that 9mm, LOL | |||

I’d like to get a .40 S&W bbl. for this one, as well as the .357 SIG bbl. for my P229.

Picked up a P226 in 357 for about the same recently and have not looked back. I did acquire .40 and 9mm hardware for it along with an SRT kit. You're in for a lot of fun from one, nice pistol. Congrats! ________________________ "Red hair and black leather, my favorite color scheme" | |||

Nice deal! That is very similar to my carry gun. ________________________________________ -- Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear.
