Default The New Sig

I know, we tend to be a rifle/shotgun type of crowd here, and I do love them. But I'm also a big pistol/revolver guy. I recently traded a S&W 627 PC for a Sig P229 SS Elite in 9mm. Love those Sigs....but I don't love those fat slippery rosewood grips. Sig should market them as "Kardashian grips....."



Anyway, I got my set of Hogue G10 Piranhas in the mail today, and they just feel so right. Looking forward to taking her out for a whirl this weekend! It even looks better in my eyes!

Possibly. I actually just sold off the rosewood grips from my P229 Dark Elite after I put Hogue Aluminum checkered grips on it.....if you really want them shoot me a PM. I won't be selling either of my P229s so I guess the Rosewoods are dust collectors otherwise.

Figured I'd do an updated Sig family photo, with the newest P229 SSE on the bottom right. P220s top, P226s bottom left, P229s bottom right.
