About 6 months ago in San Francisco, I saw a P226 with 3 15 round magazines for $499.99 (9 mm model), a belt holster and case.
"LEO sale", said the proprietor. I took a good look. A little holser wear on the slide, a bit of copper in the rifling. Nice Hogue grips. Unsure how old, but it did have the wider diameter grip screws, so it is at least 5 years old, I think.
I came back a week later, it was still there.
I bought it.
My first Sig-Sauer. And thus did I put off a vacation I had planned for later in the month. But now, with three 6-7 foot tall tomato plants in the garden, perhaps that gardening I was 'forced' into is paying off.
