The SIG SAUER P226 is the pistol that set the standard by which all other combat handguns are measured. Designed as SIGs entrant in the military trials to replace the 1911, today the P226 is in use by the U.S. Navy SEALs, Federal agents, and numerous law enforcement agencies including the Texas Rangers, Ohio State Highway Patrol and the Michigan State Police to name a few. The exceptional ergonomics and balance make this full-size pistol easy to handle.   Trigger Pull DA 10.0

Sig Sauer P226 Feature

The SIG Sauer P226 is regarded as one of the best of the “wonder-nines” thanks to its advantages.  Chambered in 9x19mm, the P226 has a standard capacity of 15 rounds and uses a double-action/single-action trigger.  Other features include a windage-adjustable rear sight and an accessory rail for lights and lasers.

Sig Sauer P226 Ergonomics

The SIG Sauer P226 is a full-size pistol with a considerably wide grip.  Its slide serrations assist the user in manually cycling the action with sweaty hands.  Its double-action trigger is somewhat heavy but is very smooth, and its single-action trigger pull has a decent amount of take-up with a smooth break.

Sig Sauer P226 Concealability

The SIG Sauer P226 measures 7.6 inches long and 5.5 inches tall, and with a width of 1.5 inches, this gun would be difficult to properly conceal without the use of heavy or flowing clothing.  The sharper geometry of the gun’s hammer and grip tang could cause clothing to catch on the draw.  This gun is more appropriately carried in an open-carry setup.

Sig Sauer P226 Fit-N-Finish

The SIG Sauer P226 has an anodized alloy frame and a Nitron coated stainless steel slide and are both incredibly resistant to rust and wear.  The only oversight in the design is possibly the placement of the slide release, as it sits close to the user’s thumb and is easy to engage unintentionally.
