Confused over an half an inch

About the only rail less Sig's you can find now are the SAS models or the X series guns.

P220 SAS Gen II Bi-Tone...
Now that is a great suggestion..
My P229 is a Gen II but I special ordered it with a DAK trigger.
The main reason I bought the Gen II SAS was to get a new Sig without a rail.
But since getting the P226, I have a new appreciation of the DA/SA so I'm converting the P229.
Besides my 15 year old daughter (my main range partner) likes the DA/SA better.
But the P239 being my EDC, will remain a DAK pistol.

Yes. I just spent close to $200 for parts to convert my P229 SAS from DAK to DA/SA.
There will be no gunsmithing charges, I'll do it myself.
I would have made you a deal on the DAK parts Tard.
I'll probably put the DAK parts up for sale on Sigforum..

....I may have to flip a coin!!!! .

I was iffy on my P226 purchase because the gun is longer than both my P229 and P239.
I would have bought a rail-less P226 but couldn't find one in 9mm.
But once I got her home and to the range, the rail doesn't bother me at all.
But I wouldn't want a rail on my carry Sigs..
But that full size P226 is quickly becoming my favorite shooter..

For range and HD I'd go for the longer barrel and better balance.
Besides the full size is cooler and you're a cool dude..

I don't do my own gunsmithing, even parts swap-outs, except on my S&W revolvers which I know pretty well. Pretty much my safe isn't going to miss one gun but my wrists are going to thank me for decades for getting a nearly automatic press.

I understand, I should probably get into reloading..
My inventory is small, one gun out of my safe would be quite a loss.

Looks like the Full Size has finally taken the lead in the poll...

Full Size - 50.60%

Carry - 49.40%

I voted full size because you said you don't carry it.

Update:


well,


-I've paid my my money......




Filled out the forms......




Waited 10 days.........




and made room in the safe......





So now your asking yourself "Did he get the Full size or the Carry?"












Niether!!!!




Guns here in California can be disgustingly overpriced, and I almost had a seizure when I saw what the local shops wanted for a SIG!!!


Screw that!!!!



So, for less than half the price of a SIG SAUER....


I just picked up a SAIGA 7.62x39 w/ 16" barrel


-AND-


A Double Star AR-15 Lower!!!!!!!!!!


(I guess I've finally caught the EBR Disease)

I'll post picks when I get a chance......

Heres a quick pic from the Cell Phone:

[sewerman]

the title reminds me of my ex-girl friend
"confused over 1/2 inch!"
i'd go with the shorty. carry and range use at 15-25yds.
1/2" isn't gonna affect accuracy unless you plain on shooting matches.
