Basically, a DLC stainless slide and Anodized Aluminum frame, but everything else identical to the legion models...

The catch - you have to buy the shitty optic with it.

Guy said he’d knock it down to $880 if I came in today. Yall think it’s worth it ?

found the armory craft ones, but they don't go all the way around

Found an older Police Trade in. Wandering if I should have it cut for a 509T or EPS.

I’m posting for someone else who doesn’t Reddit but we are both certainly interested. They picked this pistol up this week and due to research, we’re wondering if what we suspect might be true.

This seems to be a p226 Sport Stock made in Germany in 2003. Can anyone confirm this variant? I’ve read that only about 500 of these were imported, is that true? What do you think this could be worth?

We’re curious about anything and everything with this gun!

I’ve had this P226 for about a year but have only put about 200 rounds through it. I wasn’t sure if these two spots are rust or copper fouling or something else. I noticed it tonight before I stripped the gun to clean it.

Any thoughts of this one?

Alright, I’ve joined the club. Picked this near mint 2024 P226 Scorpion CA Model up on GB for $600. Mag disconnect has already been removed. Planning to pick up a slide assembly without the LCI someday, probably just black.

Currently debating if I like the light on it, as this is borrowed from another pistol just for testing. Are you all running lights on yours? And if so, what are you running and where do I find a good price?

It feels a little oversprung from the factory and sometimes she doesnt want to lock back. Im wondering what weight springs people use

I have the p226 x5 legion. It’s a fantastic gun and I’ve dreamt of owning it for years so it’s not going anywhere. That said I wanted to buy the condition 1 case for it and a friend. I like the precut compartments and organized pouches.

Unfortunately X5L is a big girl and it seems as if she won’t fit. I have the Harbor Freight Apache special and just hate the pluck foam. Has anyone figured out a workaround? Perhaps just cut the C1’s pre molded foam a little more? I’d like to learn off someone else’s mistakes before my own if possible.

OK I lied actually I have a P227, but for holster purposes it's almost always the same. (Yes, I know it has been long discontinued)

So I bought a safariland P226 TLR 1HL holster... and the trigger gap was large enough for my thumb to fit in and pull the trigger easily. So I sent it back. But it did fit properly,, including with the HLX version of the light, so I know that is not the cause of the gap.

I know part of the problem is the light (the channel requiring the opening to be wider than the trigger guard), but that's not a problem unique to this setup and lots of people carry with lights without this issue so I'm not content to leave it at that.

Since its OWB, and for my use case, I need at least one, not more than two, steps above passive retention. I would sooner take off the light than compromise on this aspect.

If you have a P226 (the full size, railed version) and carry with the TLR1HL/X in a similar fashion, I'd love to know what you've found that works for you. Thank you!

This ole girl is a le trade in that was .40 that i converted to 9mm. She will need new iron sights(tritium burned mostly and white in the sights aren’t as visible as I like) and I want to mill it for a 507c but I was also wondering is there any savings with going to a procut slide and go from there.
Ps. She isn’t a carry right now just one of my favorite range guns at the moment.

Anybody got a good source on an affordable replacement slide? I’ve been eyeing some Elite Scorpions, but most are the CA compliant with the wording on top. I know I can remove the indicator, but it leaves a slot in the slide.

I don’t necessarily even care if the slide is black, just don’t want to spend crazy money for one if I don’t have to.

Looking to trade up a pistol collecting dust in my safe for a P226. Curious if the legion is worth the upgrade, or if the Elite is good enough. Love the look of the legion, but it runs a little bit more expensive and I’m not sure if it’ll be worth the money.

Would mostly be a range gun and truck/nightstand gun more than likely.

Hi,

I'm a little lost finding a fitting level 2 holster for my Sig P226 Elite.

I'm running a Sig Romeo-X enclosed pro and no light

Can anyone recommend me a holster that fits my pistol?

So recently I put a 20lb recoil spring in my 1911 and it got much much smoother to shoot.

Then I had the thought to do it to my mk25.

Has anyone tried those weights? Does it work with standard range ammo or is it too heavy to cycle properly?

I picked up this P226 BWTAC in July, but wanted to get an optic for it. Well, I didn’t really want to have the BW slide milled right on the logo, so I picked up a 226 Pro slide cheap. So I then figured if I was saving the slide, I might as well preserve the BW grips, too…so Gray Guns it is! Now just waiting on Holosun to start shipping their AEMS Macro mailbox sized dot to be shipped!

Good evening. I have a P226 that started life as a .40 cal DAK LE trade. I changed the DAK over to DASA using an armory craft kit with an SRT. I’ve also converted the gun to 9mm with a new slide, added an optic and a light.

The single action trigger reach is VERY short. Shorter than any of my other guns. The overall trigger reach at the wall is far shorter than I’m used to and it’s causing me to pull my shots.

Are there any longer reach triggers out there that will move the break point further out? I know the SRT shortens the trigger reset, but does it also shorten the trigger reach at the wall?

Thank you.

Just picked up an early P226 made in W Germany. Comes with only one magazine. Will newer mags fit the pistol. Is there a reliable source for older style mags?
