/k/ if I'm going to get a p229 in 9mm and want a SRT anyways, should I just get the M11a1?
>>28721652
Why not. It even comes with a sticker!
>>28721681
What's the story on the UID stickers? Is Sig shilling for the ATF?
>>28721652
Do you want a rail?
Yes? 229.
No? M11.
The Surefire XC1 fits flush with the 229 if that matters to you. Although apparently the fit is super tight. If you are never going to put a light on it then I would go M11 all day.
Anyone carry a m11 or p229?
>>28721776
They're a gimmick to sell "operator" pistols. I just peeled mine off as soon as I got it.
>>28721776
Just a gimmick, like the little anchor on the Navy an Mk25, or the whole "Legion" brand.
Just get the P229 Ehanced Elite, rails, srt trigger, night sights, beaver tail, and E2 grips. By far the best handgun I own.
>not getting a german p228
smfh
>>28722720
Beaver tail on a DA/SA Sig is as useless as Anne Frank's drumset.
>>28722786
Why does DA/SA have anything to do with beaver tails? 1911's have beaver tails, does DA magically make it easier to grip higher on the gun and have more control? No. Go shoot a regular 229 and one with a beaver tail and the get back to me

>>28722818
You're response was so retarded I don't even know where to begin.
>>28722851
The comment I was replying to was retarded. Why does DA/SA have anything to do with not needing a beaver tail?
>>28722872
Because the Sig already has enough of a cutout to rest on top of your hand to get a high enough grip and to prevent hammer bite. If you don't know why a DA/SA doesn't need a beaver tail but a SA semi-auto does then I cannot help because fixing stupid isn't my job.
>>28721652
The phosphate coating is worth it alone.
>>28722908
I understand why a SA SHOULD have one but even original 1911's had a pathetic little one and even Sig's p238/239's barely have one even though they're SA. A beaver tail makes the sig p229 very controllable. I have shot both with and without and you can not get as good of a grip on one without. Also the SAO sigs that aren't elites don't have a beaver tail so you don't need one for SA either. You sure know a lot for not knowing much.
>>28722970
>I have shot both with and without and you can not get as good of a grip on one without.
Bullshit. And with E2 grips you are just blowing smoke up my ass.
>Also the SAO sigs that aren't elites don't have a beaver tail so you don't need one for SA either.
Maybe, you should re-read what I said in my previous reply:
>Because the Sig already has enough of a cutout to rest on top of your hand to get a high enough grip and to prevent hammer bite.
>You sure know a lot for not knowing much.
You sure do talk a lot of bullshit with your anecdotal "evidence".
>>28723025
I have shot both, obviously you haven't because you don't know that they make it easier to control. If it was so "useless" then why would sig put them on their top of the line models and race guns? You don't need a beaver tail for a thin, obviously sit designed them to be able to shoot without them but improved certain models with them. You don't need beaver tails for SA semi autos either like I clearly said. But they're an improvement so 99% of new make 1911's have beaver tails for a reason. Dumbass.
>>28721652
sig m11a1 all the way
I found a p229 dark elite on armslist for $850 I'm going to check it out, if it's not nominal I'll buy a new m11.
>>28723124
From what I gather you do not even own a Sig and are probably a manlet. You offer no evidence of better performance and insist that Sig only adds fancy shit to their guns to improve performance when clearly its just to make that model a special snow flake so they can charge more for it.
Stay mad, friend.
>>28723288
Hahaha I do own a Sig, I actually own two. It does help controllability a great deal. Clearly you have never shot a Sig or held one. Keep trying to hold back those tears, poorfag.
>>28722417
>Anyone carry a m11 or p229?
I carry a P228
>>28723344
>Hahaha I do own a Sig
No, you don't. See when you said:
>I have shot both
What you meant was I rented/borrowed someone elses. If you actually owned them you would have said:
>I shoot both
Stay even madder, tryhard.
>>28721652
After fondling the P229 Legion I would go that route. Second choice would be the M11-A1
>>28722908
my Sig is beaver tail free but the P229's that have them feel better if I'm honest
>>28723600
A M&P feels great in my hand but I don't shoot it any better then my G19 Gen 4.
>>28723615
so... (?)
>>28723639
I thought the point was pretty obvious. Just because it feels nicer in the hand doesn't always translate to better performance when you actually pull the trigger at the range.
>>28723564
I own one Sig p229 Ehananced Elite and have shot the regular p229. I also own a p238. Keeping saving your pennies for that Hi Point.
Pic Related, my Sig's.
>>28723698
Cool story, bro. Glad you know how to google images on the internet!
>>28723657
all things being equal only a masochist would choose less comfy
>>28723734
I don't find a beaver tail digging into my side to be all that comfy when the normal frame shoots just fine.
>>28723728
Yeah cause that's my photo, probably come off Instagram. Post your source hahaha
>>28723764
Either take a new pic with a time stamp or stay mad, noguns.
>>28723760
less burgers senpai
>>28723728
Post source, probably pulled it off Instagram or Facebook since I've posted that photo there before.
>>28723698
>Long Extractor P229
>Thinking you're not a piece of shit
wew lad.
>>28723786
My source was the same as yours: google
>>28721652
do yourself a favor OP, fondle the Legion P229 before you make your decision.
>>28723824
>>28723824
But from where? I've posted that picture before. I'd time stamp it but I'm at work but my gun as at home in my safe. That photo has been on Facebook and Instagram too. You can't type in p229 enhanced elite and p238 and get that image. You reversed searched it and pulled it from a site it's been posted to. Dumbass.
Are the legion digs really that comfy? I really want one
>>28723898
I've considered it, I really have. I can't find one locally, and I can't find anywhere with 9mm in stock. So I started looking to the elite or m11. I'll use the money saved to stock up some more ammo and a holster, maybe a lockbox for my car.
>>28723928
I only suggest it because I have a very nice P228 and until the Legion P229 I've never wanted a new one but damn, the legion feels so good in hand I am a bit envious. If you don't at least fondle one you may regret your choice later.
anyway, the biggest difference between the choices you are suggesting would be the light rail. I personally prefer the looks of a non railed pistol, ymmv
>>28723911
>You reversed searched it and pulled it from a site it's been posted to. Dumbass.
I like all your excuses as to why you cannot take a new pic but you can photoshop someone else's guns and call them your own.
lol fucking noguns
>>28723992
I am at work, and that was a hash tagged used on Instagram moron.
If this shit as thread is up in the morning I'll take a photo once I get off work.
>>28724025
shh bby no more tears k?
>>28724056
So there's a pic of me?
>>28724087
I can see why you need a beaver tail now. If I was that a boy I'd need all the help I could get to shoot a man sized gun too.
>>28724161
You literally just proved those guns are mine, the fact you found a public social media account is astonishing I mean you must be a 1337 haxzor.
>>28724177
No, I proved you stole the images off the internet since you have yet to timestamp a pic that they are actually yours.
lol dumbass
>>28724087
I'd love to see you, single, 30 year old virgin, 450 pounds, neck beard, probably owns 2 mosins and thinks he's elite. I'm 21 and have about $8,000 in guns. Hahaha.
>>28724202
Because those are pictures of me and I'm at work. The picture I posted was also posted on that account dipshit.
>>28724217
>>28724233
lol stay mad, noguns
>>28724251
Haha you have yet to post pictures of any guns you own, I'm assuming I'm right about you. Like I said if this shitty thread is still up when I get off work at 6am I'll post a picture for you. You're obviously a no guns idiot trying to save face.
>>28724264
You haven't posted any pics of guns you own either lol. You have to steal them off fucking google to make yourself seem like you have a glimmer of knowing what the fuck you are talking about kek
#wrecked
>come for advice
>two spergs turn thread into pissing match
/k/ never changes.
>>28724296
Ok try finding this one on google you stupid fuck. #wrecked
>>28724332
Those don't look like sigs to me.
>>28724357
Couldn't find it in google huh? Like I said, the other photo has been posted before so I'll post photos that haven't been on the Internet to show you I'm not a no guns like you. When I get home I'll time stamp a pic of my sigs, both are new and I don't have a ton of photos of them like my other guns. Proved you wrong I'm not a no guns.
Try finding this one too.
>>28724332
>>28724390
still not seeing a time stamp nor sigs, noguns.
stay mad
>>28724406
These are old pics, you haven't found them on google I see, go ahead and suck my dick. I only have one photo of my sigs. Keep trying to find these photos I'm waiting you no guns fag haha
>>28724431
>fag
Jokes on you friend, I don't live in CA. :^)
>>28724482
Still waiting for you to prove I'm no guns, CA guns or not I still have them unlike you. You find those on google yet?
>>28724502
>still no time stamp
>thinks posting pics that cannot be found in a simple google reverse search proves he is hasguns
lol fucking stupid kid isn't it a school night?
>>28724547
No time stamp because I'm at WORK, it's like you regards can't into reading. Earlier I was no guns because my pic was found in an image search but all of a sudden since you can't find them that's a moot point. You're a fucking idiot, let's see your guns then dumbass. Post 1 gun with a time stamp and you win. But you can't cause you're a poor fag no
Guns.
>>28724569
lol stay mad, noguns
>>28724573
Still don't see yours. Find them on Google, it's easy right? Hahahahaha
>>28721652
Get the 10mm P220
>>28724836
Still waiting.
>>28724573
Like I said, wait til I get home. Fucking no guns, poorfag.
>>28726587
>Flawless Victory
>>28726587
shop as fuck
>>28726810
Hahahaha how is that shopped? Fucking retard
>>28726848
Why do you keep feeding them?
It's probably time to get back OT
>>28726857
Feeding who? I'm just passing through I'm not who posted the pic, I'm just amused by the trolls lol
>>28722417
I used to, but after I got my G26 I realized how thick Sigs are, so I started carrying the 26
>>28722956
This is such bullshit and I used to own a MK25. The trigger also sucks.
