About the Gun

Designed for the U.S. Army and carried by U.S. Navy SEALs, Texas Rangers and many other elite military and law enforcement professionals, the SIG Sauer P226 is a full-sized service-type pistol chambered for the 9mm Luger, .40 S&W, and .357 SIG. Its design is based on the P220. Originally, the P226 slide was comprised of three different pieces of steel that were bent into shape using a mandrel. Beginning in 1996, production was shifted to CNC machining, and the slide was made from a single piece of stainless steel. This resulted in a stronger slide, which was necessary to chamber the more powerful .40 S&W and .357 SIG cartridges.

Production

Production of this specific model began in 2010 and continued through 2016. It was crafted during this period to meet high standards of precision and performance, catering to enthusiasts seeking exceptional quality in their equipment.

Analysis

This 9mm pistol is a noteworthy option for competitive and recreational shooters, offering exceptional accuracy thanks to its well-balanced design and precision-engineered barrel. The ergonomics are a clear strength, with a grip that accommodates a wide range of hand sizes, promoting a secure hold during extended shooting sessions. Reliability is another key asset, as it consistently performs under various conditions with minimal malfunctions when properly maintained. The trigger pull is smooth and crisp, averaging around 4.5 pounds in single action, which aids in maintaining control. Felt recoil is moderate for the caliber, making follow-up shots manageable even for less experienced users. However, maintenance can be somewhat demanding, requiring regular attention to keep it in optimal condition. Additionally, sourcing replacement parts may pose a challenge in certain regions, and the weight might feel cumbersome for some carrying it daily.
