Is the Sig P229 Legion worth the extra money?

That’s kind of my take. If buying new and I liked the offering I’d get the Legion. But if I had a good sig already I don’t think I’d trade it in.

Agreed. I had the same decision when I was debating on upgrading my 229 nitron to a Legion. Though the Legion beavertail felt much better, ultimately I didnt shoot it any better.

Until I tried the 226 Legion SAO. Then it was over, so much better in my hands it's not funny. Haven't seen a 229 SAO in the wild yet, but I'd bet I'll like it fine just fine

I went no on a Legion, but yes on an older 229 and then applied this 10 step upgrade:

The gun runs like a fat boy after an ice cream truck.
