P229/e2 for me. One of the best feeling and shooting pistol I own. The P226/e2 40sw is next for me. I gotta have both.

Sweet P229 Sport Morgo.

The P220 Sport looks like a winner . How did you fare with the weather ?

The floods and storms were not a problem for me being quite a bit further down the coast. Up north certainly had a beating though.

Glad to hear you made it ok. Hope the North get back on their feet soon.

I actually prefer the plain stock ones, of course that being said, that is one very nice looking sport.

1st choice:226 Elite two tone (stainless lower and black upper) in 9mm. Got one

2nd choice: 229 SAS. Want one

DLebowski · 02-12-2011, 21:42

226 SCT for me. Nothing like being able to blast through nearly half a box of ammo without reloading.

JK-linux · 02-12-2011, 21:49

Original P226 scent circa late 1980's/early 1990's. Stout ugly guns that weren't heavy and didn't jam. Awesome DA/SA triggers; super accurate and reliable. The Cadillac of the wonder-nines of the day.

8th SPS USAF · 02-13-2011, 10:34

Mine is 220 SAS DAK Carry

backbore · 02-13-2011, 13:56

Plain Jane, railed 229/9 DA/SA. I'd trade my 228 for one of those right this minute.

I'd keep the P228 , great pistol.

P229 Stainless Elite. It looks like a work of art

Cobra64 · 02-13-2011, 20:03

Since I don't care for bling, the P226ST was the better option seven years ago.

I'm glad they made these mags. Always nice to have the extra rounds

What grips are those. I'm picking up my 229 Elite stainless this week. ( Its in I'm waiting on my permit to pick it up) I read that some change out the wood grips to make it smaller.

Stock 229 in 40 with SIGLites, DA/SA. Just plain works well. Bill
