Joined the Legion! Sig Sauer P229 Legion RXP 

I've got one, too. Also the P229 Legion in .40/.357 Legion models have incredible triggers. Neither are safe queens

I think people spend way to much time talking about high bore axis. If the gun is accurate and reliable it's fine. The P229 and my AXG Scorpion are very accurate pistols

I have never liked a DA/SA combo gun. I skipped that version and went directly to the SAO 9mm. I’m also in the initial process of making some changes to it before I send the 1st rnd. downrange with it. Installing Ambidextrous “gas” pedals. Doesn’t make sense to install only one. If it hangs on the holster I’ll cut the holster to confirm or I’ll just make one that works with 2 pedals. This is going to be my “lifetime” gun. Much more but too much for here. Email me if you’d like to know more. BUY ONE WHILE YOU STILL CAN!! Their screwing us on the mag size and they are starting to dry up alreardy!!! New model coming out soon!!!

I saved forever for one. I regret nothing

Isn't the m11a1 a sig 228 or atleast when it was first adopted by the military it was a 228 but then again since the 228 is discontinued and replaced by the 229 cus they're the exact same pistol just when first introduced 228 was in 9 and 229 was 40 and 357 sig and instead of the stamped slide like the 228 the 229 is milled slide I guess they're all a 229 now and makes what I said irrelevant

Do you have a holster you can recommend? I have one 2 from sig. The leather one doesn’t seem to accommodate optic or light. And the kydex hybrid IWB doesn’t accommodate the foxtrot light. i’m looking for some thing that can accommodate the romeo1 pro, with the shroud, as well as the foxtrot light on its Picatinny rail

That bore axis complaint is garbage. I shoot better with my 226 legion than my shadow systems MR920 and my beretta 92x. The way the weight of the gun works with the smooth action and trigger of these guns is well worth the price. Im getting the 229 legion as soon as I am able to distract the wife.

@@liggerstuxin1 Look at the safariland holsters for OTW and for inside, look at the Alien holsters. Outstanding options

What kind of holster did you find for it? I’m looking for owb with level 2 retention but can’t find anything. Thanks

@@dillonlittle1992 I was only looking for IWB. The pistol is too big to comfortably conceal IWB. I bought a P365 SAS and use that with a Philster Enigma Express IWB. That P365 SAS is slick and I was instantly familiar with the bullseye sighting. At some point I’ll look for a OWB for my P229. Let me know if you find one you like.

@@Automotive-Velocity yeah I carry a 365 as well but I wanted to try this guy since it’s winter now and also a “duty” type holster as well for range drills and what not.

I have an OWB concealed carry holster from Upper Hand for my P320 RXP X Compact that fits the P229 perfectly

I am considering doing the same thing when I purchase it. Please post here when you get it back to compare how it feels. Thanks.

@@richardj3715 I recently took the pistol to a three day training class in Arizona. I was using blemished Sig Sauer 365 practice ammo. On the second day, I started to experience soft hammer strikes on the primers. As part of the trigger job with the Sig Armor, in order to reduce the amount of tension required to pull the trigger back in DA action, the factory 24 pound hammer spring was replaced with an 18 pound hammer spring. I took the gun in to the on-site armorer at the training center he replaced the 18 pound with a factory 24 pound hammer spring. This seems to have alleviated the problem and I believe that due to the other work that the Sig armorer did in the trigger job, there was no noticeable difference in the way that that trigger pull functioned after that 24 pound spring was re-introduced to the hammer strut. The fact that I was using blemished ammunition may have contributed to the problem. Even though this hiccup occurred, I still stand behind the work that the Sig Armor performed on all three of my pistols, all Sig Sauer legions, one P229, one P220 in 45 and another P220 in 10 mm.

Thanks for the feedback.

Weird that I see them for sale everywhere

The Humble Marksman just reviewed a new Sig Sauer model that doesn’t come with iron sights. It’s shipped with a red dot only, and he speculates that it’s the way guns will be sold in the coming years. My first red dot was this summer when I bought a new P226 SAO Legion with Romeo. I also bought a Nighthawk Shadowhawk with Trijicon RMR last summer. I don’t even look at the sights on either of those guns, and at the range my round hits exactly where I aim the red dot. I don’t see why a red dot would be a liability. And at least with the Romeo sights, the dot comes on when the gun detects movement. So while I have little experience with red dots, I like them, and have one on my 229 carry gun. I’m very accurate at 7-10 yards. Anyway, best Regards

That bulletproof suit of his is worth a hundred of these atleast lol. He even uses vickers weapons which I think are 1k+ a piece

1500.00 gets you 15 shots.

Lol

@@keness4768they go for $800 second hand. With the 18rnd or 20rnd extended barrel it's a beast!

Have you had any issues with the thumb safety being too easy to get lowered by itself while carrying?

@@rudrashakti108 no issues at all with the 229

@@pete3486 thanks!

They sell one.

It comes with it

That changed many months ago.

@@lbcadden3 not a fan lol. Great gun but the 5.11 range bag to me seems cheap

I much prefer the soft range bag, except that my Springfield TRP and Nighthawk soft bags are made of heavier fabric, and the zippers seem sturdier.

i am going to get a P229 RXP. i have a P320 now. i just dont like the feel of striker fired polymer guns. i use to carry a P226 but i now only carry it in the cooler months (easier to conceal), i live in the Northern US. SA/DA metal is just the best way to go if you ask me.

@@jonthompson8807 yeah I am leaning the same way. Appreciate your take on it

How do u like it? I just paid for mine.. I'll pick it up in a couple weeks

@@kevo875k I absolutely LOVE it!! I thought my other SIGS and HKs were smooth! Nothing compared to the trigger on this baby!

@@jackwebb5917 is the RX version worth it?

@@kevo875k Absolutely! The Romeo was just a little bit off, but once it was zeroed it was awesome. I would definitely get it as an RX, worth every penny

@@jackwebb5917 cool.. I'm gonna look into that.. does the legion case come with a extra set of mags or u still just get the 3?

Sound like you got the military /police version.

Meaning it's obviously missing or fell out, or that the g10 grips cover that whole area like they were never there?

What a nonsensical comment.

What are you talking about man? You are seriously saying that 9mm is for “sheeple”? The fking Navy Seals use 9mm. I’ve never heard of someone having beef with a CALIBER hahaha. You mad, bro?

@@hankowitz you have never heard of caliber debates/fights? wow! either you're lying or live under a rock! and your precious navy squeels, aka order following rights violating evil serving/protecting SPINELESS MORAL COWARD TRAITOR force arms, and mercenaries, do not choose their caliber, gear or missions, they do as they are told and take what they are given, and they aren't the end all be all gods of knowing everything, even if it is their arena, and they use it as a sidearm back-up secondary weapon, also like i said, they do not choose their cartridge caliber, gov does, and their criteria is different than yours as a civilian for self-defense/preservation/protection, and some of those criteria points are overall weight, weight of gear, weight to capacity, wounding over lethality and especially cost! so grow up and stop worshipping traitor force arm order followers and get some morals!

This man has obviously never seen what a bullet does to flesh.. move on, little meat

Internet troll nonsense
