Her 50 rpund test target had 6 rounds that were not in. The ease of operation of the slide was VERY important to her, and she handles it with amazing precission. The wepon performs flawlesly and with an extended mag fit her very well. When it came time gor my Wife to take her CHL test we looked at numerous brands and calibers of simi-autos. One thing remained consistant– they ALL did what they were designed for. Some were easier to use, sone more pleasant to use, some heavier, some lighter, and so on and so on. Like others on here I have owned and or used ( Military service ) numerous hand guns.
Have you ever shot a SIG? Were you an immediate convert like our guest blogger? Share your thoughts or experiences in the comment section. After experiencing the SIG P226, I was hooked and have since added a SIG P938 to the collection.
Sure, you may pay more for this weapon compared to some of the others on the market, but the quality is unmatched. Whether you’re an avid shooter or someone who wants a pistol that will fire every time you pull the trigger, without worry and hit the target, the Scorpion is a great choice. Overall, in my opinion, the SIG Sauer P226 Scorpion is a fantastic pistol. I have primarily used Winchester 9mm FMJ or Remington FMJ target as well as home defense rounds. I have yet to have a round not eject smoothly from this pistol. It almost seems to be self-cleaning after each round is fired. I will also add that this pistol will take hundreds of rounds before even beginning to look dirty. Another feature that made the decision easier was the ability to easily fieldstrip the SIG whether you’re at home or the range. The trigger pull is around 4.4 pounds single action or 10 pounds double action. SIG Sauer’s P226 Scorpion has an overall length of 7.7 inches with a 4.4-inch barrel and 5.5-inch height. Overall, in the author’s opinion, the SIG Sauer P226 Scorpion is a fantastic pistol. The SIG P226 also features a short-reset trigger, and a decocking lever that allow the user to safely decock the hammer without risking actuation of the firing pin. The controls are easily accessible by either the thumb or index finger on each side. SIG’s Scorpion also features a 15+1 magazine, stainless steel slide, machined high-grade aluminum alloy frame, with integrated Picatinny accessory rail and a woven durable recoil spring. In the end, I decided the Scorpion had set itself apart with its flat dark earth finish and SIGLITE night sights, which are very bright even if you have left it locked in the safe or under a bed for months. Too many choices and so little money, but I had to chose just one. I must admit, shopping online for a new SIG was a blast. SIG’s P226 is offered in several different variations such as the MK25 used by the Navy Seals, Tac Ops, Equinox, Combat, the interchangeable caliber Dak model and Scorpion. My task was to decide which version of the SIG P226 I would be interested in owning. After sending more rounds down range, I left the field thinking I better do some research. The G-10 Hogue grips gave it a well-balanced and tight grip. The pistol was comfortable in my hand with the unique beavertail design.
Until I had the opportunity to find out what a SIG Sauer was all about, I really had no idea what made it different than the others aside from the fact that they were very expensive by comparison-especially for a blue collar worker such as myself at a retail price of $1285.00 ( $1,179.99 at Cheaper Than Dirt!). At least that’s what I thought given the wealth of advertisements, and the package deals I always received with Springfield’s pistols. Previously, I have owned several Springfield Armory pistols and thought Springfield’s designs were some of the best in the business. However, that aside, I am speaking from personal knowledge and my own use of this fine weapon. However, I was raised in a law enforcement family, so I have definitely had some influence on safety and proper shooting technique, as well as an extensive knowledge of different types of guns. Let me start by saying, I am no gun expert by any means. Written by Be a Blogger for a Day Contest Winner, Justin Poynter.
