Hey Big Red.. thanks
Quote:How do you like your P229 compared to your P226?
I've been thinking about getting a P228/P229 and was wondered what your thoughts on it were.
That hogue handall grip feels awesome on the P226 doesn't it?! I have yet to find another pistol that feels as good as my P226 with that grip.

The P229R CT 9mm on the right is a great shooter and is my nightstand and night home gun. The CT Laser grips are great for keeping both eyes open for maximum SA and point shooting is on-the-money with them. I chose the P229 over the P226 simply for CCW purposes and at 2000 rounds, with no failures, just 100%, it is one of Sigs Carry models that shine in my book.
The center gun with the Hogue grips, which really finish the grip for me, is actually a P220R 45cal. I almost went P220 Carry, but I saw it at the last moment and had my Beretta Px4 40cal, also with Houge grips, with me and, comparing the two, they are almost the same size. Both are much narrower than the thicker slides of the smaller Carry P220's and is just a tad-less than 1/2" longer than my Px4, which is also a CCW gun for me. The P220 has performed flawlessly, shooting wise, and has never failed once thru 750 rounds of pure 45 cal bliss..
I'm sure that up the road, another Sig will find a good home here.. lol
My best to ya,
