It's pretty funny. But the police in my country singed this weapon as dangerous and unreliable. They wanted to make this pistol as police officers standard gun. Is it true that this gun is dangerous and unreliable?
@xxweaponsxx123 The US Navy SEALs use it, and I don't want to sound like "the SEALs use it therefore it's the best" BUT, there has to be a reason they picked this gun over the beretta
you will be amazed how much your accuracy will improve if you will squeeze the trigger smoothly instead of jerking it. the gun should "suprise you" when it goes off
@Wilson1592 Isn't that the point? If the bullet goes through someone it'll rupture and break more internal organs and bones. Imagine shooting someone in the stomach, and then also having the bullet pierce their spine as well. Just a theory though, I'm not saying you're wrong.
@SuperSaiyan4Broly HP's tumble and expand, causing more damage. Standard FMJ's just leave a 9mm hole in some one, and a 9mm HP will become much larger than 9mm. I mean this bullet can kill, but a hollow point will do a better job.
@SuperSaiyan4Broly well you also gotta think about fact of a normal round goin right through them because the easier its goes in and slices the organs the easier it'll come out and then possibly hit another innocent by-stander
@dito2942 Well, of course. There is that possiblity. Although, it would be nice if it goes through your enemy and hits their friend. Ideally, of course. I have respect for both Hollow Point and Ball Point.
@drslooper Maybe, maybe not. Honestly? I doubt it. I know if I was raiding his home I'd use my rifle the entire time and not my back up weapon unless I deemed it necessary. Also, Seal Team 6's gear depended on the mission. SIG Sauer P226 E2 would be a sidearm for that mission. Or maybe it wasn't..They also have 1911's. Though again, I doubt they even used their sidearms.
caliber debates are stupid. Both are good for different reasons, and no matter what you still are putting HOLES in a person, I think a .22 would get somebody's attention, and a 9mm has killed a lot of people.
@ThePurpleNinja4209 Dont think so since it was a special forces that killed him. They usually dont run around with a handgun but more likely an assault rifle.
A 9mm is still a good caliber, it will get the job done, in the right hands, with proper load and shot placement. In any case, if some scum bag on the street, walks up to you and shoots you, 45 or 9mm, it won't be joke. FYI, that was the point. A lot of guys who say they're big boys, haven't been in a combat situation.
@MrBladeDude Well Im positive it is both DA/SA. Check out gunwebsites youtube channel they explain it well. This sig as most do can be fired with the hammer decocked and down which is Double action or with the hammer back or "cocked" single action.
The funny thing is that I'm watching this thinking "this looks like Cecil Webb outdoor range in FL" I'm guessing I'm right being that your profiles says you're a FL cracker. What are the chances of seeing your local range on youtube? lol
@danebake I've seen people who let their weapons dictate their demeanor and actions... from a Ruger .22 to a M82/107 .50 BMG, it doesn't matter... If you arent educated enough to know what you're firing and still maintain absolute control as if it were a part of you, then you shouldnt be firing it. It's like people who go out and buy a Ferrari and never learn how to drive that car, they just bought it because its a Sociological Statement... If they didnt learn how to drive it, they're an idiot-
a sig p226 in 9mm is more than enough to take someone down. especially with the right training. lets face it a lot of the people that talk trash are educated through lots and lots of TV, bochures, manuals, youtube and google. no disrespect to a .45 but im trained to put a controlled pair into someones chest and follow up with a failure shot to the head or reverse failure with a pair in the hip.
@Marine17inlove have no problem with modern HP +P loads in 9mm. ive seen them achieve ft. lbs. of energy equal to some 40 cal loads and much less snappy recoil signature
I love this gun, Have u had any problems finding good mags for this model? I heard the pro-mag ones are junk & the used SIG mags are like 60 bucks plus...
Hey I just bought a 9mm sig sauer P226. And please don't talk shit to me because I bought a 9mm not a .45 I don't like one more than the other but the 9mm is cheaper to shoot. Anyway my question is, is it ok to press the slide release lever/button without a bullet or snap cap in the magazine?
@Daynknight1001 Oh yeah? Let me put a few hot rounds through you? Do you have the balls for that? Shot placement is everything. $20 bucks says your a civilian with no training. Trained officers have a 85% miss ratio under stress in a gun fight. Imagine you "big boy"? What would yours be? 110% miss ratio I'm sure. Let's see if you can even flip the safety or don't put a nice old 230gr in yourself by accident. What you don't know can fill a book.
@lifelessmatter put a few hot rounds throught me? whoops must've struck a nerve you tempermental pathetic man and by the way officers for the most part can hit their targets in a gunfight fairly easily. Your comment about 110% miss ratio just shows how ignorant you are did you not pay attention to fractions in the fourth grade 110% would mean a whole and a tenth which doesn't make sense that would mean I fire ten shots and miss eleven DOIH DOIGH DOIGH DA DA DOIGH DOIGH!
@lifelessmatter You lost me...You're still with that? lol Shut up man. No one cares what you think. And the 110% was just me saying that you suck that much that you defy common sense and everything logical. I think I'm the one that struck a nerve here. You have to remove the tampon from your vagina. It's just simple gun talk.
The ending of that "come back" was that the language of retards you know so well?
@togakure1973 It's typical most people don't realize first things first is shot placement .22cal .22mag to the chest it's done. .38spl and 9mm are more than sufficient.
I dont care what anybody says about the 9mm, Its NOT a puny round as long as you group your shots, if you do that, its a definite takedown. besides, I think the .40 S&W is much too snappy which can disrupt accuracy. its not much bigger than a 9 really, its a 9mm on steroids. I own an H&K USP-9, glock 17 and a beretta 92fs all in 9mm.
@adrianrubi P226 is my military side arm. It is, by far, the toughest handgun ever. Far superior to a block. Previous sidearm was a Browning Hi-Power 9mm..
As for the idiot who suggests the 45. keep in mind, 45 is much harder for follow up rounds, and 9 out of 10 times.. the 9MM has more than enough knock down down..
@MADHater01 ...I know what you mean about follow up shots witha .45ACP it really is hard though not impossible. I've seen slow motion shots of ballistc gelatin shot with 9mm and .45ACP and I think the 9mm has the same effect and the .45 just shakes the gelatin a bit more but the wound effect is equal. Thanks:)
@adrianrubi My problem with a .45 is, more often than not, firing this weapon requires 2 hands. Whereas, the 9MM is much easier for being handled single handed.
Also, I do believe the 9MM has sufficient knock down power and trust my life with said 9MM. I've got nothing against the 45. but I would much rather have a 9MM.
I recently bought a P226ES in .40S&W. In the 500+ rounds (mostly cheap Federal 180 gr. FMJ target ammo) I've put through it I have yet to have a single malfunction of any kind. At all, period. The thing has run absolutely flawlessly from the very first mag brand new out of the box. Factory mags or the Mec-Gar 15 rounders, doesn't matter. It just works, each and every time you squeeze the trigger. YMMV I guess, but this pistol seems to be as reliable as the tides so far.
Yeah 9mm is a joke, is that why half the law enforcement agencies in the WORLD use it??....It ain't a joke when a 9mm JHP hits you're chest. It's a death sentence
@hnksnw When the shooter does his job, target won't know the difference between a .45 or a .22. Don't rely on ammunition to make your kills. There is no one shot stop, and quite frankly, I prefer having the firepower of a 15+1 magazine. And no, its not because it can't hit anything, its because I like having more rounds to hit targets with.
@danebake I agree in some aspects excluding the .5o cal. I don't care where that thing hits, you target is done. (If you hit a limb and they keep shooting that's your fault anyway.)
@BeyondtheChaos1 Well which .50 are we talking about? Because if it .50 BMG, I doubt that it would make a difference as long as it hits major body tissue. But then again, I also don't think I'm likely to see many guys walking down the street with AS50s or M82s as their carry guns.
If we're talking .50 AE, then same story goes, but it's damn unwieldy.
@hnksnw lol if you ever get hit by one like my friend did (long story) you will not be saying it is a joke my friend was shot by a 9mm glock in the arm and was taken by a ambulance.
I have this pistol. It's one of the best shooting pistols I've ever had the pleasure of shooting recently I've purchased 2 gen 4 glock 17 pistols and believe it or not they shoot as well as my sig. They are very simple and very accurate
maybe beginners who are a bit concerned with the possibility of getting slide bite....and the person who was shooting with the gloves kept adjusting their grip so I'm just assuming that they were a beginner.
@2VP Anyone who does either alot of shooting or shoots in unfriendly climates. Also alot of military personnel, like myself, are deployed with gloves so getting used to shooting with them is vital.
@ dnbaddict Help me out here please. I was looking at the 2022 9mm but I can get a used P226 with 10 shots fired through it for 590. Where as a new 2022 is 600 with tax 640? I am not sure what to do. Some one must help me here
Well Autovomatic, It comes down to specs and of course cash. You can't go wrong with either. I would go for the 226 because thats a hell of a deal! The 2022 a little lighter pistol 30.oz and the 226 @ 34.oz Both have night sights and can hold up to 15 rounds.....I bought my 2022 for $499 plus tax here in Texas....I hope this help you out a little!
At 1:26, the guy needs to get his left hand thumb out of the way and move to the left of the gun. I'd hate to see that slide come back and take a piece of flesh out of his hand.
It shoots very smooth very little recoil I have beretta PX4 Storm very little recoil because rotating barrel that sig you have is a quality handgun I can see as you shoot. You have a great day
Everybody talking about Beretta without mentioning the PX4 9mm. I have one, you'll be hard pressed to find a nicer shooting gun. I love Sig, especially the 226, but if looking for a 9mm, check out the PX4 Storm also.
@nkio37 I'll help you decide. I own both the sig and the beretta, also two copies of the baretta, Tarus made on the old beretta factory machinery in Brazil......
I would go for the Sig 226. It's a much better feel in the hand, better balance. Better design. Other then that, Beretta is a very fine 9mm as well. Beretta is slightly more sexy, but the Sig is one of the combat special operation guns of choice. The FBI and lots of other Federal agents have been on SIGs, the seals, etc. Go SIG.
that second guys going to get his thumb bit. He's shooting that Sig like a revolver. Thats a semi-auto no-no when it comes to hand guns....you learn that :REAL" quick.
@Alexn1067 If the Beretta turns you on more, then go for it. Or better yet, buy one of both. Then you'll be really happy. Even a bigger smile. I have them both and wouldn't want to give either of them up. Buf if I was forced, I would give up the Beretta's, keeping the SIG P226. Out of all my pistols, if I could have only one, it would trash my glocks, revolvers, beretta, tarus, etc. I would keep only my P226 Sig, if forced!
Yea, I imagine they do have competitions somewhere where the "weak" hand is used. I understand that shooting a handgun with one hand is a good practice to get familiar with, but you are missing the subject completely. The thing was a guy commented that a handgun should be shot with one hand, because it was called a HANDgun, not a HANDSgun.
Well, it is a form of shooting, my father in law shot with one arm behind the back, he was an amazing shot, it IS the purest's way of shooting. But you are both correct.
I do believe the old Army field manual showed this method for shooting in the day as well...
I often shoot my pistols one handed and to be honest I can easily shoot just as good if not better one handed because my other hand doesn't interfere and drag the gun off center line during recoil... I usually use my eye opposite of the arm I'm firing with and place my arm along my side for balance, if you have good grip, arm strength and breathing control you'll hit dead on every time. People honestly sped far to much time being "Tacticool" rather than just becoming comfortable and adept.
The HK is a fine weapon, but for me the Sig works much better, and I feel that paying $800+ for a polymer gun is excessive. Try out both before you buy and see what works for you, your local range may have some rentals, and if they don't have exactly what you are looking for, get to know some of the regulars and I am willing to bet someone will have one for you to try out.
ahh the 226, iv owned about 3 of these and i gotta say its the BEST gun to have, all mine were illegal tho lol anyway did someone say saftey? maybe they was talkin about another gun or something but the p226 doesnt have a safety
My favorite 9 mm... also Glock 19 and a p 229

Yeah 9mm is a joke, is that why half the law enforcement agencies in the WORLD use it??....It ain't a joke when a 9mm JHP hits you're chest. It's a death sentence

@hnksnw a wise Navy SEAL once said "if i put two bullets in your heart and one in your head, will you know if it was a 9mm or not?"

@hnksnw hey if i put 2 shots through your hart and one through your head you you wont know the diffrance

@hnksnw When the shooter does his job, target won't know the difference between a .45 or a .22. Don't rely on ammunition to make your kills. There is no one shot stop, and quite frankly, I prefer having the firepower of a 15+1 magazine. And no, its not because it can't hit anything, its because I like having more rounds to hit targets with.

@danebake I agree in some aspects excluding the .5o cal. I don't care where that thing hits, you target is done. (If you hit a limb and they keep shooting that's your fault anyway.)

@BeyondtheChaos1 Well which .50 are we talking about? Because if it .50 BMG, I doubt that it would make a difference as long as it hits major body tissue. But then again, I also don't think I'm likely to see many guys walking down the street with AS50s or M82s as their carry guns.
If we're talking .50 AE, then same story goes, but it's damn unwieldy.

@hnksnw lol if you ever get hit by one like my friend did (long story) you will not be saying it is a joke my friend was shot by a 9mm glock in the arm and was taken by a ambulance.

I have this pistol. It's one of the best shooting pistols I've ever had the pleasure of shooting recently I've purchased 2 gen 4 glock 17 pistols and believe it or not they shoot as well as my sig. They are very simple and very accurate

Who wears gloves while shooting pistols?
2VP 1 year ago
maybe beginners who are a bit concerned with the possibility of getting slide bite....and the person who was shooting with the gloves kept adjusting their grip so I'm just assuming that they were a beginner.
T3FilmStudios 1 year ago
@2VP Anyone who does either alot of shooting or shoots in unfriendly climates. Also alot of military personnel, like myself, are deployed with gloves so getting used to shooting with them is vital.

I heard the 226 was a fine pistol! I own a 2022 9mm and I am very happy with how it feels and shoots.
dnbaddict 2 years ago
@ dnbaddict Help me out here please. I was looking at the 2022 9mm but I can get a used P226 with 10 shots fired through it for 590. Where as a new 2022 is 600 with tax 640? I am not sure what to do. Some one must help me here
Autovomatic 1 year ago
Well Autovomatic, It comes down to specs and of course cash. You can't go wrong with either. I would go for the 226 because thats a hell of a deal! The 2022 a little lighter pistol 30.oz and the 226 @ 34.oz Both have night sights and can hold up to 15 rounds.....I bought my 2022 for $499 plus tax here in Texas....I hope this help you out a little!

At 1:26, the guy needs to get his left hand thumb out of the way and move to the left of the gun. I'd hate to see that slide come back and take a piece of flesh out of his hand.

Everybody talking about Beretta without mentioning the PX4 9mm. I have one, you'll be hard pressed to find a nicer shooting gun. I love Sig, especially the 226, but if looking for a 9mm, check out the PX4 Storm also.

dose it fell big on the slide i cant deside on a sig or bretta
nkio37 2 years ago
@nkio37
Definitely go with a Sig. If you aren't in the US and you have access to norinco guns, those are good cheap copies of sigs

a sig looks better!
zhinch 2 years ago 2
@nkio37 I'll help you decide. I own both the sig and the beretta, also two copies of the baretta, Tarus made on the old beretta factory machinery in Brazil......
I would go for the Sig 226. It's a much better feel in the hand, better balance. Better design. Other then that, Beretta is a very fine 9mm as well. Beretta is slightly more sexy, but the Sig is one of the combat special operation guns of choice. The FBI and lots of other Federal agents have been on SIGs, the seals, etc. Go SIG.

but I still think I am going to buy an M1911

grenadelogan 2 years ago
@Alexn1067 Yeah i really like this pistol. I fired when I went to the shooting range last time. It's really nice.
yesiamawizardjonny 2 years ago
@Alexn1067 If the Beretta turns you on more, then go for it. Or better yet, buy one of both. Then you'll be really happy. Even a bigger smile. I have them both and wouldn't want to give either of them up. Buf if I was forced, I would give up the Beretta's, keeping the SIG P226. Out of all my pistols, if I could have only one, it would trash my glocks, revolvers, beretta, tarus, etc. I would keep only my P226 Sig, if forced!

I have a P226 in 9mm as well. Have fired over 1000 round into it without a single malfunction.

The video is cool and all, but I wish shooters could see the imperative need to master one hand shooting...
That's why handguns are "handguns",not "handsguns".

Firing with one hand isn't as accurate, so there is no "imperative need" to master one hand shooting.
yootubenewb 2 years ago
yes it is in a combat situation. You ain't as fast. Ask any experienced cop or military veteran.
Although,in a shooting range,I agree: accuracy is everything,so 2 hands beats 1 hand :)
glidershower 2 years ago
there is an "imperative need" if you only have one hand......
SmashingJack420 2 years ago
True, but that would be kind of obvious then wouldn't it. There is no benefit in using only one hand...
yootubenewb 2 years ago
Really? Is that why Police, Military and Personal Security details do off hand shooting drills?
Those idiots!
Jethro212 2 years ago
... You realize "offhand' shooting drills are just drills used with the weak hand right? It's still using two hands.
yootubenewb 2 years ago
You mean to tell me, you practice always using 2 hands? You never have a scenario where one hand is unusable?
You do realize that some competitions do require using your "off hand" by itself, right?
Jethro212 2 years ago
Yea, I imagine they do have competitions somewhere where the "weak" hand is used. I understand that shooting a handgun with one hand is a good practice to get familiar with, but you are missing the subject completely. The thing was a guy commented that a handgun should be shot with one hand, because it was called a HANDgun, not a HANDSgun.
yootubenewb 2 years ago
Well, it is a form of shooting, my father in law shot with one arm behind the back, he was an amazing shot, it IS the purest's way of shooting. But you are both correct.
I do believe the old Army field manual showed this method for shooting in the day as well...
Jethro212 2 years ago
I often shoot my pistols one handed and to be honest I can easily shoot just as good if not better one handed because my other hand doesn't interfere and drag the gun off center line during recoil... I usually use my eye opposite of the arm I'm firing with and place my arm along my side for balance, if you have good grip, arm strength and breathing control you'll hit dead on every time. People honestly sped far to much time being "Tacticool" rather than just becoming comfortable and adept.
Prometheus203 2 years ago
Know what is funny? This is the same way people reacted when the Weaver Stance came out... Virtually the same arguments but backwards.
I look to shoot long range with a pistol, same way I shoot my bow, when I do that, I cannot hold the pistol as if I am shooting a target 10 yards.

iodineclip 2 years ago
The HK is a fine weapon, but for me the Sig works much better, and I feel that paying $800+ for a polymer gun is excessive. Try out both before you buy and see what works for you, your local range may have some rentals, and if they don't have exactly what you are looking for, get to know some of the regulars and I am willing to bet someone will have one for you to try out.
