Dear Santa........

[TheJohn10992]

look at his thumb he musta got it caught in tha gun {gun thumb}

[Sunburn2007]

I just switched from a Glock 23 in .40 S&W over to a SIG P229 in 9mm. Absolutely love the gun. I will never go back to a Glock.

[Silent14389]

Personally I find the Springfield XD's easier to field strip

[Phatphatyo]

@ kaninji: try pulling the slide back instead of it resting against the stop. It's hard to do almost like you need 3 hands but some guns do that. My millennium 111 9mm Taurus does. Hope that helps.

Sick vid man. Try better lighting but that gave me an idea of what I needed. Thx.

[Angelsweep]

Hah! And here I thought field stripping a CZ 858 was the easiest thing. Thanks for the vid man.

[kaninji1]

ok i am having trouble my sig sauer p229 i cant get the lever to go straight down like its stuck or something wat could i be doing wrong?

[EJR914]

Once you field strip a Sig such as the p229, you will never want to go back to any other gun. Its just too easy.

[dougwg]

Not true at all. MANY guns field strip the same way as the Sig.

BTW: I sold both my 229s and purchased a S&W M&P, great gun too.

There was NOTHING wrong with the Sigs, it's just that they didn't fit my hand very well.

[ibanezkid07]

@EJR914 lol glocks are way easier

[gtiapr3]

Whats the difference between the P229R and P229?

[dougwg]

I believe the "R" denoted the gun has an "accessory rail"

[militerpatriot]

is there a big difirense btwen this  and the p226

soory for bad english

[dougwg]

nope

[SaginawGS]

Yes, the 229 has a shorter barrel and grip than the 226

[samo642]

@militerpatriot

barrel length

[jjmckenna]

No muss, no fuss. I'm picking up one of these tomorrow in a trade, and I wanted to know how to quickly take it apart for examination before I consummate the deal. Thanks!

[rodeo5017R]

i like you vid fast and shows you how to get the job done

[dougwg]

I have 2 Sig 229's. Both have Hogue grips. :)

[DarkheartTheHeritic]

are the stock grips really that bad?

[dougwg]

Nope, just personal preference.

[DarkheartTheHeritic]

ok thanks for the vid nice time by the way

[elsamuraiguapo]

Damn, I want to get one in DAK, because that's what most law enforcement agencies are using.

How do you like those Hogue rubber grips?

[ecko344]

thanks for the vid. i'm a new sig p229 owner and this is a great video.

[dougwg]

Yet I want a Kimber soooo bad, go figure :)

The Kimber is based on a hundred year old design but it's still one of the best.

[Yakko77]

Yeah, that was one of my primary motivators for going with the 1911 design. Time tested and battlefield proven. Both SIG and Kimber are a bit pricey (my Kimber Custom I was $700 when I got it about 8-9 years ago) but still affordable plus their reliability and accuracy right out of the box is pretty much legendary. When it comes to my self defense, I definitely wanted quality and was not going to cheap out. Hopefully Uncle Sam is good to me this year and I can add a Sig to the collection.

[Yakko77]

Much easier than my Kimber 1911. It's not hard to take apart a 1911 but damn that was so MUCH faster and simpler by comparison!

[TTT808killa]

well done, o yea btw.....sig OWN

[c4sandiego]

hell ya!!! go shoot it now!!!!

[jake23masters]
