Sig Sauer P226 / P229 Legion 9mm Overview and Comparison

Спорт

See detailed information on Sig Sauer's new P226 Legion and P229 Legion pistols.
See photos and ordering information on our site at www.osagecountyguns.com/blog/n...
The Legion series is basically an enhanced / upgraded version of Sig's existing P226 and P229 platforms. The P226 and P229 are coated in gray PVD (physical vapor deposition) which is the same as Sig's black Nitron coat.
In this video we detail the features of the P226 and P229 Legion and compare the P226 Legion to two of Sig's most similar pistols, the P226 Stainless Elite and P226 Enhanced Elite.
The Legion has enhancements to the frame including more aggressive front strap checkering along with checkering on the front and underside of the magazine well. The frame also has an X-5 undercut making the reach to the trigger slightly reduced.
The Legion uses a Bruce Gray Grayguns Intermediate Adjustable Trigger which allows for changing the over travel.
The grips are two piece G-10 and have the Legion logo along with a texture that allows for a solid grip but hopefully won't overly aggressive.
The Legion pistols are shipping with Sig's new X-Ray3 sights which allow for better day time visibility than Sig's standard SIGLite night sights. They also have tritium inserts like Sig's other night sights.
Other modifications include modified slide stop / release and decocker levers. The ones on these pistols have a reduced profile compared to the standard Sig P226 / P229 models.
Finally, the Legion pistols include after purchase incentives. You will want to register the pistol with Sig Sauer because they will send you a free custom molded case and challenge coin. You'll also receive inside information about new Legion series releases and you'll qualify to buy other Legion logo gear only offered to Legion members. These include holsters, lights / lasers, knives, and lifestyle apparel.

    First Class Pistols from Sig, we have learned to expect no less. I believe I will end up with one of each. Been a fan since Mid 80's!

    I love how glock makes its own bb guns and how they make them look so real kzread.infoUgkxnX9wE_Q8zvF75Y5iWzTU3Q4FlrtyGApQ , the only thing is that the slide doesn't move back. The sights and the body structure is so similar to a real handgun, fits in my hand perfectly but I actually ordered it with the 40 pack of Co2 tanks and they never arrived even though it said that they handed It to me. Was not able to test the accuracy since I didn't get everything I purchased which is frustrating and that's the whole reason why I got the bundle so it arrives together. So the Co2 tank happens to be a third party so it makes no sense to put it in the bundle if it doesn't get shipped at the same time, the BB gun arrived first then the Co2 tanks were supposed to arrive someday later but didn't, which doesn't make sense. I recommend just ordering the gun itself so you don't get the same issue I ran into plus there's no option for a refund. How stupid.

    Awesome! I'm glad Sig did something about the slide release, that's actually a problem I've encountered far too many times when shooting my P226. I seriously hope they start to offer some of these enhancements as upgrades for the regular line of P226's! Wish you had the SAO version to see the reset with the new flat trigger! Great review! Thanks for giving us a first look into the new Legion line!

    Great video and comparison to models already on the market. I'm a huge fan of Sig products and I think they really nailed it with this updated series of firearms. I just recently started shooting firearms at the range in my late 20s. Shot a wide variety of other manufacturers' guns, but there is something special about having a Sig in the hand - it just felt right when I first shot it. Looking forward to see what other models get the legion treatment.

    1st of all thank you for a thorough video - very informative. 2 years ago I purchased a SIG P226 Extreme for $1200 and it has similar features to the Legion (SRT trigger, frontend rail and slide serrations, nitron finish, unique pattern on the Hogue G10 grips). Its a fantastic gun and the SRT is awesome. I didn't get it for looks, I got it because I wanted an SRT SIG, but didn't want the "enhanced" beavertail and didn't need the short reach for my hands. And ultimately, at the time (post Sandyhook) it was one of the few SIGs that didn't have an enormous leadtime or wasn't constantly sold out. I question why SIG is going after yet another SKU for their guns because it will confuse a lot of people, but I don't question their marketing machine since I'm sure this will make them a lot of money. I agree that having access to unique items is cool, but will these unique items be priced appropriately or will they be overpriced versions of the same "standard" items by Emerson, Hinderer, Surefire, etc? I'm not hating on SIG as they make awesome guns, but just want other gun lovers to do a reality check on whether or not this is worth the extra cost of entry regardless of whether or not this is their 1st or 5th SIG.

The items are up at the sig store and there are definitely some "lifestyle" items in there which are pretty cool - cigar related, glasses etc. prediction: these will be very popular for sig and the 1911 and MCX legions will follow quickly. At least I hope so :)

    HK really should take notes on the adjustment on the slide catch. I got rid of my VP9 b/c of that problem, locking the slide back inadvertently. I bought this gun yesterday and love it. Over 200 yards down range with multiple ammo, and it has been absolutely flawless. Of note, the trigger is adjustable with a hex screw on the top of the trigger, so beware of that if you need to adjust. WRT the price of the gun, it is a great deal! I enhanced my old German model P226 that I bought used, and once I got through, I would have been able to buy one of these with, which has more enhancements than I could have done. This is a great deal just for the gun alone. Don't care too much about the access to the gear, but the gun is nice.

    I have the Legion 226,229, the MK II and the Legion P220. All are outrageously accurate and easy to operate. My advise is to get the model you can afford and slowly build from there. it took me almost 10 years but it made all my other pistols obsolete. They are expensive but you can bet your life on them time after time. If I only had a choice of two handguns to carry I would carry the Legion P226 or the Mk II. The P229 if I wanted 40 cal or 357 sig. You and I will never be able to shoot them out.
