    The SAS version is very smooth and slick sided. Nothing sticks out anywhere. She thinks its for her:innocent0, but it looks like it will be my carry gun when I get my permit:cool:.


    You'll pry it out of my cold, dead hands :mad54:



    I'll be sure to post back with a range report. That sight is just so easy to acquire quickly. It's not meant to be a target pistol; it's meant to be a concealed carry pistol. Nothing to snag and an easy to acquire sight? Bonus.

    Love the SAS sight. Need a range report on how you like actually shooting it.

    I'll carry it to the range for you, yeah, that's the ticket, yeah!

    Anyone remember these boxes?

    1991 model P220 complete with box. papers and factory test target. I wasn't about to let another one of these get away.


    I do! Here's mine from 1991 as well. I found the MSP transfer form dated March 12, 1991. Unfortunately all I can find is the bag it was packaged in along with the manual. I may have put the other stuff in a file somewhere. The P226 is from 1988 and has everything it originally came with. The two Legions are 226 and 10mm. I had a some trigger work done to the 10mm and it's super smooth so I tested the older P220 .45 slide on the Legion frame and it worked no problem.

    Forgot to post the range report last weekend on the P365.

    It's a bit snappy, not really a surprise on such a small gun shooting 9mm. Stand One low power reload 9mm isn't as snappy. Swedish training ammo with a plastic bullet apparently felt like just a primer strike. We had one bullet that refused to fire and it wasn't from a light primer strike. I'm assuming it was a dud, but we didn't verify.

    I shoot way right with it, no matter how I put my finger on the trigger (barely touching, on the first knuckle and everything in between). By way right, I mean in the heart/left lung of a silhouette instead of in the circle. From somewhere around 18-21 feet (we didn't measure).
    Oh - I'm lefty. So I'm not pulling the gun with the trigger.

    Acquiring the sight at the range is just as easy as in my living room, whether it was light out or really dark (when it started actually raining, we moved so we could fire from under cover and there was no light). I had on safety glasses with reader inserts at the bottom, but I didn't need them to acquire the sight. Trigger pull isn't short, but it's consistent, smooth, not heavy and has a really fast reset. If you hold the trigger back after firing, it is possible the gun won't go into battery.


    It's not the gun I want to shoot every day, but it's also not the gun I refuse to pick up and fire. With that and a small size plus nothing to snag, it's a good concealed carry piece. The flush mag conceals just a little bit better than the finger-extension mag. Just a little bit, because the finger extension isn't big.

    It's your grip and pretty much never trigger finger. And you're shooting too fast. :D

    What do you mean the slide doesn't go into battery when you don't reset the trigger? Makes no sense. hmmmm

    Yeah, yeah. I don't shoot any other gun to the right.

    I dunno. It didn't happen to me. Mark75H took it to shoot with his brother and cousin the weekend I was in bed with a migraine after my 2nd shot.

    If you hold the trigger tight as part of your follow thru, the slide stops just out of battery and hangs there even after you release the trigger and the trigger resets. Its so close to in battery that most people would not recognize why it won't fire the next round. Sig claims it will wear in after 500 rounds.

    My new Sig P320 AXG Pro, swapped out the stock black grips with Sig “Blue Lava” G10 panels, added a Sig Foxtrot1X weapon light and a Holosun HE508T green dot. Just got it all setup, hoping to make it to the range tomorrow if I can shake this 3 day migraine I’ve been working on. Got a thumb rest/gas pedal too, but haven’t installed that yet. Can’t wait to get busy with this one.

    Where they send me.
    Not smart enough to post a pic. However, I have one of the Japanese Police pistol 32acp 230's for sale now in the classifieds. Would like it to go to a SIG collector who would appreciate it.

    I bought a refurbished (by Sig) 226 some years ago. It came in a standard plastic case with a fancy red band around it. Supposedly reworked so as to operate as a new gun. It shot way off target. Other shooters did no better with it. Call Sig and a rather nasty rep told be there was no way they would accept the pistol back for sight alignment. I took it to the shop it came from, and they were more than happy to drift the sight, but had no shooting range to check the change out. So I drove home, tested the gun, and it was still off. Repeated process three or four times. No progress. The pistol is a safe queen, never to be taken to the range again. Not at all impressed with Sig service.

    The way I do this is using a 9mm laser boresight cartridge. I find the longest distance in my house (which is not huge, lol), put up a target, put in the boresighter, and then drift my sights to how I want them. There are obviously some limitations to this strategy, but it generally works quite well for me, and it's how I get all my guns sorted out windage-wise before I hit the range.

    So you’re pissed at Sig Sauer for not sighting in your firearm? That seems like a pretty lame reason to be upset with a company. Sight in your own firearm. It's not rocket surgery.

    Truth.
    What an absurd complaint.
