Picked up a looker

Oh yeah, nice! This must be the one from 2010 or 2011 imported. Stainless slide, railed, triple numbered, German proofed.

Sweet. Although losing that 'Eek2' grip would make it markedly better for me. Not a fan of the look or the feel in-hand of that grip on the full size frame.

I hear you about the E2 grips. But that is factory correct with this release from 2009-2010. It was one of the first Sigs with it. I personally like this, but it is not better than the Hogue G10 grips. I am saving pennies for a set of those next.

Q,

Didn't they come with the Carbon Steel slide? I have one of these somewhere, but remember them as being the last of the old Carbon Steel slide/alloy frame 226.

Yes, there was another batch from Germany that had the folded slides, with rail, 2010.

That is what I understand from internet reading. I read somewhere that 500 of each came in to the USA

I misread the title. Nice find. I got nothing else... Razz


Beware of a man whose only pistol is a 1911, he's probably very good with it.

Nice gun, but I still like them better without a rail.
