    Considering NP3 coating- advice?

    Check out CCR. They have a package that includes the CPII/cera-hide that a lot of SIG guys seem really happy with. They are great to work with as well. http://www.ccrrefinishing.com/

    Info on West German Sig

    @dondavis3, The factory black on the frame is in great shape. It should look similar to yours when it's complete. To bad it's a two month process... In the meantime ill just use your photo for inspiration. :)

    Info on West German Sig

    Nice. I'll be going that route. Mary is very nice! The trigger and barrel on this pistol are finished in hard chrome. Does that give any indication of the particular variation?

    Dondavis3 - is that the CPII or just the nickle finish? Looks very nice.

    Info on West German Sig

    Wow. Total turn of events. 226 gone and in its place a 220 W German w/ triple match numbers. Frame and internals are great, slide has some spots, but no pitting. Traded my G17 for it and 50 rounds. Broke it down - new springs, etc... I'd heard the old style trigger spring could wear on the...

    Info on West German Sig

    Numbers match. The slide is a natural color, no bluing or finish. There is some pitting and the rust is there in patches, not just a dusting. I'll probably pass and save for something in better condition.

    Info on West German Sig

    A west German P226 recently appeared at the local shop. It has a few rust spots on the slide, but looks to otherwise be in good condition. $500 and I'm sure there is room to move on the price. What's the story with these guns? Are they worth a look at that price in sub par condition? What...

    9mm or .40?

    +1 moss 500 for HD. IMHO 9mm seems more fun to shoot at the range.

    NP3 finish on P226 ST

    The 226 is on its way. CCR was on it and they are still offering a discount to THR members. Thanks for the recommendation.

    My first true Glock experience

    LOL, I love the passion! Like I said, his story is worthy of a whole new thread. The ability to actually aim was simply meant to illustrate he wasn't completely incompetent. The only things I'll vouch for are how dirty the firearm was, the obvious wear and the function. DOD could have meant...

    My first true Glock experience

    This guy is pretty full of bull poo, so I doubt he knows. I think he was trying to say department of defense? He also said it had night sights and a "trigger job." The gun had standard plastic sights and the standard trigger connector. If he hadn't shot. 3" groups at 7 yards I would have...

    Glocks and Federal Champion ammo

    I've put a few thousand 9mm rounds through a G17 and P226. However, I have experienced one issue in a friends dirty gun. Definitely light.

    My first true Glock experience

    I did have one question. The serial number plate was bowed out a bit. I told him it was probably from the frame flexing. With no rail it was pretty soft and bent easily with figure pressure.

    My first true Glock experience

    Hey all. I thought I'd share my first experience the "legendary" Glock persistence. I've owned a glock for a while now, but being a recreational shooter the poor thing gets a basic clean every 100-200 rounds - I keep it HD ready. My friends and I are more surfer dude than anything else, so...

    NP3 finish on P226 ST

    Thanks 9. You're right, CPII. Discount to THR members would be a decision maker. It's good to see that type of support.

    Giving advice to someone looking for a first semi-auto pistol

    My brother was the same guy, but a lawyer. We both got into pistols as a bonding thing. He ended up with an XD9 and I now have a G17 and a P226. The breakdown... we both really appreciate the Sig, I LOVE the Glock, he owns an XD9 :D We've put at least a thousand rounds through each at this...

    NP3 finish on P226 ST

    Found it on my own. Here is is for anyone else looking. http://www.ccrrefinishing.com/pricing.html Pricing less expensive.. $275 NPII (CCR) vs. $315 NP3 (Robar) Does anyone know the difference between the NP2, NP3 and NP3 Plus? Even the websites don't seem to offer much detail. It...

    NP3 finish on P226 ST

    "You might take a look at CCR as an alternative source. Their CS and QC is outstanding and I believe a little less spendy" Does anyone have a contact for them?
