Rented Sig P226

[TATER313]

I went to Tracy Rifle and pistol, took out several different CZs, I also rented a sig p226 in 40,I really liked how it shot, at 20 yards had a nice group. I was really impressed with the recoil, the gun handled the 40 exceptional well. Things I hated about the gun, mostly because I will have to get use to them. First I confuse the decockers with the slide release. Also slide would not lock slide back after last round, it's my fault I'm sure I was hitting it with my thumb. Double action was smooth, and single action was even better with some slight uptake. The alloy frame is light almost reminds me of a polymer feel. I was going to buy one but now I'm losing off, it is to bad they don't have a manual safety model.

They do have SA models with safety, however, not on the CA roster.

EDIT: it is also not possible to convert DA/SA to SAO with safety.

Get a CZ if you want a manual safety.

My first gun was a P226 in 40sw. I never looked back.

I like the cz better but Sigs are nice. Especially if you get an older one.

stick with CZ, but if you want to try something different get a 1911

My first firearm, SP2022, the little bother of P226. One of the main reasons why I sold my SP2022 was because I kept riding my slide lock and prevented it from locking back on the last round. After adjusting how I held it, I just wasn't comfortable shooting it, so I ended up selling it. Don't get me wrong, I had 0 malfunctions with it, drop it in sand and it went bang every time. Super reliable firearm.

Yes, by all means get a CZ..

Leave the Sigs to those who appreciate the finer things in life...

In time you'll get used to holding the pistol firmly without riding the slide stop, I like Sigs alot but they do require a different grip than a Glock or 1911. Buy one... you wont regret it.

[Just-in]

I don't regret buying my P226 9mm. Nothing against .40 I just don't shoot it in my personal guns.

I already have lots of CZ,s, and love the ergonomics and set up, and they are great shooters. I am also looking at a couple CZs in 40 the P06, 75B,and SP01. I will look at the SA sig 226. Domingo I always here people have to rework their 1911s to function right, it is almost like buying a Dodge.

[Bullitt01]

...buying a Dodge, he he.

[Domingo]

Tater could you post a picture of your target

[TATER313]

I dont need a 2 day pistol class, but would like the dillon though. I have lots of factory HP 40 ammo, and only my CZ TS in 40 which I reload for. Yea Domingo I dont shoot at targets 5 feet away.

Give Bruce Gray a call (grayguns.com), he does amazing work with the platform. I really liked my 226 before Bruce worked on it....now i absolutely love it. The improvements in trigger, sights etc really transfored a really nice gun into a great gun.
