    Sig p229 e2 grip kit

    who's got them? I love my non-railed p229 9mm but it is a bit fat in my hand. I would love to try the e2 grip kit but alsa, non to be found.

    Any ideas?

    Did it, recommend it. My incoming P228 will also have it. It really changes the whole dynamic of the pistol. The conversion make the P series - perfect. I also recommend SRT & Short Trigger. I don't have to change my firing grip during mag changes. Everyone who has shot it has asked me, 'how much for it?' This is DA/SA perfection.

    Sent my SAS P229 for the conversion. If you are ever in LA/OC, let me know and I will let you shoot it.

      looks nice, great pics. I have the short trigger, no srt yet. I went on sig and didn't see the work order for this?

        You can call it in and have it done. I can give you the contact info if you want through pm. Turn around time is about 10 working days.

          You have to send the pistol to them. I am a Sig trained armorer, but they would not sell the parts to me, unless I order with LEA department letterhead. They said their corporate attorneys put a restriction on it. I don't understand the policy.

            So the grips themselves are not just slimmer the pistol has to be modified?

            I take it that also means if you don't like it you have to resend it back just to use any other grip on the market, correct?

            Thanks.

              You can switch it back fairly easily. My guess is you probably won't.

                The new E2 grip is like a sleeve that fits over the rear of the pistol. It snaps into place and removes the need for screws. It points better and give the user better control over the pistol during recoil.

                  There its no frame modification. The hammer link and main spring need to be changed out, not just the grip. The grip is held in place by friction and pins that extend into where the grip screws would normally go.

                    For $100 sounds like a decent deal. 2 week turnaround sounds pretty good too. Too bad it won't work for DAK models.
