Sig P-226 SCT with 4, 20 round magazines.

Being a dyed in the wool .45 ACP shooter for over 3 decades now, I've been debating on a 9MM purchase for some time. Yesterday I went shopping, and after much discussion I was no closer to making up my mind then when I walked through the door. So I bought all 3.

I've never purchased 4 guns in one day before, (I also bought another AK-47), but with the political climate changing for the worse, and interest on annuity investments paying squat, I decided there were worse things in life to spend money on than quality, high capacity, semi auto firearms.

I really like the Sig P-226. It fits in your hand like your feet fit into fleece lined slippers. The SCT model of the P-226 ships with 4, 20 round factory Sig magazines. It has the Nitron finish, and Sig Night Sights as well. Both the Glock 17 and the 19 are standard daylight fixed sights. I was going to go with a 17 and a 26, but after handling the 19 the choice was obvious. The 19 fit my hands much better. Because I bought all 3 from a shop that I frequent quite often I got a smoking deal on all 3 of them.

As soon as I returned home I promptly ordered another 4 magazines for each gun from Midway, along with 4, 33 round 9MM Glock mags. Amazingly they had all of them in stock. Now all I need is some 9MM ammo. Every gun shop, as well as Cabela's and Sportsman's Warehouse is picked clean. Not a round to be had, with no telling when there will be. We've got a big Crossroads Gun Show coming next week, so I'll get up early and get in line with the rest of the cattle and try and pick up a few thousand rounds there. I doubt there will be any bargains, but at this point I just want ammo without wearing out a set of tires to find it. Hopefully then in a few weeks I'll be able to light these babies up! Bill T.

As a convert from .45 to a g19, you made some good purchases. Now, buying four in one day must get you on some crazy liberal watch list. Have fun with them. I really want the sig.

I just dumped my Glock 23 for a Sig P226 Combat. Its gonna be a few weeks before i am able to pick it up, but i cant wait. I've been shooting my buddy's .40 P226 for far too long, and i just fell in love with the feel of the 226's. I got the Combat version because of the extra durability factor, although its kinda pointless, Sigs are tanks to begin with. But this is supposed to take that durability up a notch. Plus i dig the gold and black combo and it comes with night sights.

Congrats on your Sig P226 purchase, they are, in my opinion some of the most durable and reliable guns available anywhere in the world. And very accurate as well. Good stuff.

I guess mine count. Dammit I KNOW they do. They're just a silly millimeter shorter.

Wow BillT that's impressive 4 guns in a day! I also really enjoy shooting the 9mm, due to price and improved performance of some of the new loads. I have the G17 with one of the 33 shot mags and am a waiting the Viridian X5L. I like having the extra firepower, and the price of ammo allows for a lot of training. Congrats on the new purchase.

Have you found the 33 round Glock 9 MM mags to be reliable out of the Glock 17 and 19? Bill T.
