    New Addition to the Family

    I have the SA 1911 Trophy Match in 45 and love the gun but wanted a 9mm as well. Well after waiting months for a SA1911 in 9mm and still no dates from Springfield when they will be available (my last call to them I was told they were on "production hold" with another 2 month wait) I decided to go a different direction.

    A Sig 226 X-Five in 9mm. I was debating on this gun for a while now over the SA and had decided on the SA due mainly to the cost differential between the two. I picked it up on Saturday and did a strip search to clean and inspect (no rusty springs to be found ) Feel in the hand of the sig is perfect, fit and finish is perfect.

    I shot about 200 mixed rounds through it (factory round nose, My reloads in flat point and XTP) and I have to admit that I am more in love than I have been with any of my handguns. This thing shoots SAAWEEETT! Hardly no recoil and very good groups.

    Here she is.....









    I am looking forward to many, many more rounds.........

          Nice, congrats! I plan on adding the exact same gun to my family in the future. Many who own them say they are their favorite to shoot. And they are known for their great accuracy. Nice buy!

                    Great gun.

                    Do you do any USPSA/IPSC? this gun would totally dominate the competition.

                            Have never done any competing but am going to look into it. Davis Street has a steel shoot Saturday nights that I am going to try first..I Need to find a holster though and was thinking about the Blade Tech

                            The Blade-Tech Classic OWB Holster is made in the US from high-quality materials and can be tailored to fit your shooting style. Shop our Classic OWB Holster.
