| Hope you get it. I believe you'll enjoy the P226 Legion.

addicted to trailing-throttle oversteer
| As much as I dislike the appearance of the elongated extractors on P-SIGs, I'm drawn to the P229 Legion. The trigger can be okay to pretty nice right out the box; it's those 'pretty nice' ones that are tempting me. With each one of those that come into the shop, I feel myself being sucked in. Good thing that I KNOW that I can't be buying any additional guns right now...but it's still calling to me...moth...flame...oh crap...  Hope it goes well for you. Good luck. |

| SPRG,
What pound hammer spring to you use? I have a #17 in my P226 with a SRT
trigger. I've had no issues with light primer strikes. |

I run a Wolff 17lb mainspring as well, in all three of my P226's. No issues either. |

| Can't wait to hear how you like. I'm trying to decide between the Legion and the Wilson Combat Beretta or M9A3. Maybe you could do a comparison for us?

| I bought a 229 Legion .40 in January and shot it for the first time on Saturday and after approx 200 rounds am very pleased with it. It will be in my edc rotation now and am looking forward to putting a few thousand more rounds through it. I did have to send the slide in because the rear sight lost its glow on the left side. No big deal, Sig provided a shipping label and had it back to me in two weeks. Just want to add that I have found Sig customer service to be exceptional.

I went in last week to buy a DA/SA and they only had a 229, ended up ordering a SAO 226 at the recommendation of the guy behind the counter. I should have it this week I'm really excited. Either way I don't think you can make a bad choice. His recommendation came after I said it would be carried extremely rarely, if ever. Having said that he steered me in the SAO direction saying the triggers and action really are that much better. We shall see.
I went with the Legion SAO and couldn't be happier, I had a lot of different handguns over the years but the 226 Legion SAO is one of my favorites. It is an great trigger out of the box and also a really soft shooter and paired with some 20 rdn magazines is one heck of combat handgun. |

Me too, though I'm sad my legion lacks the s at the end of the word. I want the SAO to join her and keep her company while I'm away for work.
