It only took 24 years....

I upgraded my P226 I bought new in 1989 the only way that made sense to me... adding an X5.

Congrats!
I got a 229 Elite Dark a few years ago and it runs like a sewing machine.
One day I'll pick up the 226 Elite Dark to compliment it.

I dearly love Sigs, but I hate the fact that they're so heavy to carry around all day and the fact that a moist glance will cause them to rust.

Grats on your purchase. SRT?

Believe me I looked it over a time or two but I'm a .40 guy.

All Around.

I've owned quite a few different sigs over the years and never had a rust issue. The P226 pictured was a regular CCW for much of its first 10 years, most of that time in Seattle, Mississippi and Texas -- not exactly dry climates.

This is X5 is only the 2nd P226 I've owned, but I've had a few others over the years. Sig's remain one of my most favorites. Here's a pre-divorce family picture (the P226 is at 9o'clock)...

You should look harder.... they come in .40 as well as 9mm and .357 Sig.

Sorry I should have quoted the previous post but I was referring to the pistol Speedracer has for sale it's a 226 Elite Dark in 9mm.

The pre-divorce pic is heart wrenching.
