rhenson1P226 Blackwater Tactical
I picked one of these up the other day. Nice gun, came with four 20 round magazines. Is there much up value over a standard 226? With the features it has, what model would be comparable. It has TFO front sight, foward cocking serrations and grips that extend to form a magwell.

soggy_spinoutTo anyone who thinks Blackwater was cool, maybe. Anyone else...not really. Just another step in the seemingly endless stream of variants out of the braintrust of SIG NH.

AmbushI asked the same question, mine is the original, not the "Tactical". Based on the answer at the time, I turned mine into a shooter. Installed a GG's straight trigger and Trijicon HD sights. It is a great shooter.

xanthEh, some of the limited production models tend to fetch a premium (maybe small premium) like the Navy (not the MK25). I'd wager it is worth a bit more than a standard TacOPS, might take a bit to find the right person, but yea, I'd say there is a small increase in value.
And the comparable model is the TacOps, which replaced the Blackwater Tactical. Has the same features minus the Blackwater logo.

CQB60I’ve seen the BW grips fetch stupid money on eBay.
