Sig Sauer P226 & P229 Back From Custom Shop

Just got my Sig Sauer P226 and P229 back from the Sig Sauer Custom Shop in Exeter, New Hampshire. This video provides a brief overview of the work I had performed on my weapons by the Sig Sauer Custom Shop Gunsmiths. Those folks do fine work, and it is reflected in the price paid yet worth every penny.

Nice. Like the new grips?

[weaponocd]

@austinguy23 Thank you. I did too, at first, but after working with the weapon, it feels a little too narrow, but I'll keep trying to make them work.

Didn’t know they made 18 round mags. Is it wider? Bought 2 - 226's, (police turn-ins). Took em apart, cleaned w/ Hoppys, blew em out with air. Did that twice, used spray gun oil, got pretty saturated everywhere, & blew out. Put drops of oil on the rails. They looked nearly new. I love em both they are so accurate. I like everything about the 226 especially the de-cock, instead of a conventional. In panic mode will you remember? First pull, you’ll know. Where can I buy the maintenance pad shown?

@onewhocares2010 To the best of my knowledge, Sig Sauer doesn't make an 18 round magazine, and if I said that, I am dead wrong. My apologies. My P226 magazines are 15 round. My personal opinion, if I may offer, is if you even so much as question whether or not you will remember to use the de-cock lever, you would do well to purchase same weapon in DAK. I own several DAKs across the Classic line, and they are quite nice. I found the bench mat on eBay. Thanks.

You're making me nerves with you're shaky hands . You'll make the gun go off by accident .

@JR12345111 It is what it is. You can always simply...not watch if that will make you feel better. I've managed well all these years.

@airsoft787 Appreciate it.

@ldgrey1963 Hi, and thank you very much for your questions. The Armorer's Course for Sig Sauer Classic Pistols, which is oriented toward P220, P226, P229, and P239 costs $395.00. I'm certain learned skill sets cross to other platforms such as P6/P225, P11/P228, and P245, but I'm not sure if the same holds true for SP2022. Unless the SP2022 slide is marked "STAINLESS," it is a safe bet it is a carbon steel slide, but please, ask an Armorer who has dealt with that weapon system to verify. Thx.

@weaponocd

I was wondering, how much did it cost you to take the SIG Armorer course. I would like to learn the detail strip for the SP2022 (9mm) and the P226 (40 S&W). I have fired 1000's of rnds in the 2022 and I would like to check out the firing pin channel for carbon buildup. I am not having any issues with either, just want to do some PM on both weapons. The nitron is wearing off of the 2022 do you know is that is a Stainless or carbon slide? Thanks for all of your help.
