Hello Everyone,

Just wanted to put this out there - the Sig Sauer Legion P226 is exceptional (at least for me). I picked one up and I've used it in a USPSA match and an IDPA match and the pistol was great! I did okay as well :). Well, not so much in the USPSA match (I had one great stage). But I did do very well with the Legion last Saturday at an IDPA Match.

Here are some videos from my GoPro of that Legion in each match (and yes, I picked my best stages to post here :)):

Anybody else have a chance to try one out?

Haven't tried one but really tempted to hunt down the 229 Legion.

I have a 229 legion and it is by far the best pistol I've shot. I thought I liked my 229 scorpion, but it doesn't even compare to the legion.

drift_g35 - I can see why you feel that way, the trigger is so much better than a non-Legion. I also have an M11A1, and after shooting the Legion, I bought and installed the Gray Guns P-Series Master Spring Kit and a black all steel fat guide rod. Now the M11A1 feels almost as good, just doesn't have the undercut frame. I did replace the M11A1 grips with E2 grips, that helped quite a bit. Those upgrades were less than $115. I also have an orange AmeriGlo Tritium front sight (#8) on the front with the SIGLITE rear - highly recommended unless you want to buy the X-Ray sights, or Trijicon HDs (which I think are both exceptional).

Ray, I bought my Legion used, but I was told that if you are an NRA Instructor (I am), you can get them at the IOP price (friends don't let friends pay full price :) ).
