Sig P229 Elite
I always liked Sig's but with all the new guns out lately I have been buying XD's. Glocks. Kel-tecs. taurus. This year for my birthday I decided to treat myself to something special so I went to Ace sporting goods and bought a Sigp229Elite in 40 S&W. It is put out by Sigs custom gun shops. I already own a 225.226.239' and a Sig Pro 2340 so I am used to the quality of the Sigs but I am really impressed with the difference of this gun. It is like the difference between a Porsche and a Ford. It takes a lot for a gun to impress me but this thing is just about perfect. I took 300 rounds with me to the range, shot them all, then came home to get 400 more rounds and shot them all and I am going to the range again today.

Re: Sig P229 Elite
I thought the Elite's looked great but I thought the beavertail was kind of stupid when I first saw it but after holding the 220R Carry Elite I really liked it.
BTW Where are the pics?

Sorry there are no pictures. I have a digital camera but I don't know how to put them on the computer.

Re: Sig P229 Elite
+1 For being a big fan of the custom shop stuff. I bought a 229 equinox not long ago and it is my favorite pistol.
However.... Did you notice that the finish on the frame is Super easy to chip?

Re: Sig P229 Elite
Hi Folks-I have a question regarding my P229 Elite. I just purchased my P229 Elite form a local dealer here in AZ. I took it out on the range today and it shot exceptionaly well. But the Rosewood Grips are too thick and If I replace them with Factory grips, I feel the gun would loose some of it's character...Any Suggestions?

Re: Sig P229 Elite
Check your hold, more than once I've heard of shooters inadvertently keeping the slide lock from setting by they way they hold with the recoil.
