I went to my local fun shop today and to my surprise there was this Sig 226 Elite in the used section for $600 with 4 mags. I believe it has the SRT trigger. It definitely has aluminum grips (my favorite). This is the first Sig I bought with the newer style extractor. Most of my Sigs are from the 1990’s and early 2000’s and have the small style extractor. I cannot wait to get some range time in with my new Sig!    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The price of liberty and even of common humanity is eternal vigilance | ||

Great deal! Never had an extractor issue with any Sig, internal, external long or short. | |||

Yeah I’ll echo the above regarding the extractor. I’m sure you’ll love it. I certainly would. Enjoy. | |||

Very nice! I've got a couple of long extractor Sigs, and never had a problem. And if you do, it'll be MUCH easier to source a replacement that an older internal extractor from the folded slide guns. That's gonna be a good shooter, and was a steal at what you paid! ----------------------------------------------------------- Any comments made by this poster are my own and do not reflect the views or opinions of my employer. | |||

I got to shoot it today out in the country along with my AR15 pistol. Oh man I screwed up not bringing ear plugs. My ears are still ringing. I should have doubled up on hearing protection. Short barrel AR15s are LOUD as hell. The AR was 100% reliable and quite fun to shoot once it was sighted in. My P226 Elite was AWESOME!!!!! and provided exceptional accuracy and 100% reliability. I burned through 100 rounds of Winchester 124gr ball ammo today. The 229 is/was my favorite Sig but this 226 really surprised me today. I’d post up a video but I forgot how to imbed YouTube videos so a screen shot from a video will have to suffice for now. Damn need to loose weight.  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The price of liberty and even of common humanity is eternal vigilance | |||

That’s a great find, stick! At that price, I’d have snapped it up, too! Politicians seem to have forgotten that they work for us, not the other way around. — — — — — — — — — — — — God bless America. | |||

Such a great find for $600! Glad it worked out well for you. After all these years I still enjoy people posting pics of their P226’s. I’d argue it’s one of the finest looking pistols ever, plus it’s a fucking awesome gun to shoot. For me at least, it defines SIG Perfection  ETA: I still want it on my CCW, if I could only have one gun, it’d be my P226. ...Then it comes to be that the soothing light at the end of your tunnel, was just a freight train coming your way... | |||
