SIG P226
Negatives:
Although I have size 8.5 hands, the grip size doesn't bother me that much, but DA trigger is a long reach (short triggers are available, aftermarket and factory).
Standard blue finish on the slide wore with repeated holstering as a duty weapon, but did not rust (K-Kote, nickel and balckened stainless are available).
Positives:
Although it does not match the trigger feel of my P229, the 226 trigger is better than any non-1911 auto-pistol I have shot (Glock, HK, S&W).
So controllable it is scary; raggedy holes galore!
Reliable as hell; out performed the M9 during JSSAP trials. Standard sidearm for SEALs and Secret Service.
No external safety lever to get in the way.
Fit and finish is unlike no other.
I can go one for days...
