how many shoot sigs?

[bufit323]

I shoot a P226ST. It was set up by Bruce Gray, the trigger is awesome, the only problem is my lack of good practice!

I sometimes use my 9mm 226 Elite stainless to shoot my club's practice match. No mods at all, except for changing the fancy wood grips for the more hand-friendly plastic grips. It's great once you get used to the long first shot pull, and then a short second shot. The stainless frame makes for a real soft shooting gun. BTW, is the 226 Elite stainless legal for USPSA production? I'm worried it is too heavy. Thanks.

I shoot a two tone 220 in 38super, no mods at all.

As long as it's not over 2 oz heavier than a stock Elite, you are fine with it in USPSA Production. My SIG All Around is heavier than the Elite and it's legal. It's IDPA that won't let either of us play with our SIGs.

I sometimes use a Sig P226 in Production. The only mod is TruGlo sights and those are about to go. The front sight broke while my wife was shooting it. She saw it fly over her shoulder when the slide recoiled.... I want to find a thinner fiber sight for it.

I hope the 226 ST Elites are approved in Production, but this links says otherwise ... what gives?

Chris,

Did you ever get a SIG?

The long trigger pull will definitely mess with you if you're used to something with a short reset.

Otherwise the Sig is a great pistol.

I shoot a P220ST in L-10. I ground the grooves off the front of the trigger with my dremel tool , installed an extended mag release button, and bought some 10 round mags. It works great for me.

One of these days I'm going to start shooting L-10 and I've got the perfect pistol all ready to go:

P226 Elite Stainless 9mm (42.4 oz.),

This was on the approved list to the link in your post.

I used to shoot sigs all the time at the range, but once I started competing, the double action started getting to me. One of these days I'll pick up a 220 SAO and give that one a shot.

..pun intended!
