Please do not include me in your Karma.
I have already purchased multiple sets of that exact P226 SAO walnut grip.
It's very good of you to offer up a Karma like that!

The same grips seller was blowing out the "official" Texas DPS grips for this one. I bought a pair for enhancing potential future resale value.
(has the TXDPS logo engraved in the walnut grip panels)
It is a "leftover" Special Configuration Model chambered in .357 SIG, sold out of the SIG Pro shop in NH, and built on a leftover frame with the TXDPS serial number after the contract was fulfilled for the special TXDPS Anniversary contract run.

I purchased the TXDPS .357 SIG SAO and the Mastershop X5 Short & Smart SAO 9mm here on this Forum.

I did buy several sets of the grips you are offering as a Karma for this one. The laminated beech grips are somewhat rare, and I have removed them and installed the walnut
version in place of the dyed/laminated beech, to minimize usage wear & tear.
With legislation passed here in my location since the photo was taken, my overlords say I am not allowed to possess the pictured 20 round "SWAT" magazines any longer.
I still own a pretty good quantity of those somewhat rare 20 round SWAT magazines, I just store them outside my state border. Razz

A SIG Forum Member many years ago (if I recall, out in Colorado) sold custom wound magazine springs, custom magazine followers, and custom aluminum magazine base plates/pads.
If you milled out the pressed in "dimples" and slightly modified the magazine over insertion tab on those factory 20 round SWAT magazines, and added the custom parts from the Colorado Forum member,
the magazine capacity was 29 rounds. Great for gun games, and home defense. With gaping holes in the sides of the lower magazine tube, not so good out on the streets.

I'm sorry, I don't know the answer for that question.
Send an email to Member 12131, he's likely the most knowledgeable about what fits what.
Ask him to post in this thread with the fitment answer.

I could use the grips. A very generous Karma. I currently own an X5 exactly like yours. The only problem is…..I have no idea how to put a picture of it on this post. Sorry!
