Sig Sauer Legion series

Weight-wise I didn't notice any difference, and besides the ergo difference in grip nothing really stood out to me as being unbalanced. I'm pretty used to them, so it's going to be a personal preference/feel thing - definitely recommend putting your paws on one to see how it feels for you.

I've got some nice guns, but the other day I picked up a smith 9mm shield. That sucker felt awesome, and it's cheap.

I shot mine on Sunday.

As much as i like my 1911 Sig i should probably just buy more ammo and not check these out.

Thanks a lot.

I got the email from NW Armory with their "sale" flyer. I couldn't believe what they were charging for it. I got one for one of my customers and sold it for under $1100. It's a great gun though.

$1100???? I did see that price on a site...sold out. I called two other store they didn't have any yet, oh well. At least I didn't pay over $1400. THE PISTOL IS VERY NICE....

After I got my hands on it I was wishing I had ordered two and kept one. I don't typically keep inventory, just get people what they want without ridiculous mark-up.

I sorta been in the market for a p226 after I sold my MK25.. I may have to look harder at one of these.

Want one... though I still need a MK25. Considering cost, that'll probably happen first.

Until then, I'll happily take my old West German P226 to the range...

Yeah, I got a few p228s, one goes tot he range, the other is a safe queen.

I fondled bzltyr's P226 Legion.

It is a really nice well made pistol. I have two P226s already so I can't justify another one. I will live vicariously through him.

Friends with benefits: with your gun buddy lets you grope his new firearm.

So, I've been a SIG Sauer guy for decades. I have too many of them :O although recently I've been mainly carrying a most delightful little Springfield Armory Mod.2 in .40 caliber.

Anyway, I bought a Legion Series P229 in .40 a week or so ago - I already have a .40 P229, but the Evil People at SIG got to me - and I have to say that it's seriously nice.

BUT -

The trigger pull was heavier than expected - I'd guess around 12-13 lbs double action.

So today my #17 spring from Wolff arrived, I installed it, and OMG - now the pull weight is pretty much equal to my older P229s (I actually have a couple). Anybody else run into a too-heavy double action trigger on a P229 Legion Series pistola?

FWIW, the Gray Guns trigger that comes on the Legion P229 is excellent, as is the fact that it's a SRT (short reset trigger). All in all, not a big deal to spend an extra few bucks on a non-factory spring, but surprising nonetheless.

Also, the single action pull on the Gray Guns trigger with the Wolff spring is spectacular! So maybe it was worth it

VERY nice break, not too light, not too heavy, juuuuuuuuust right. And sharp.
