[@GUNSHIPFLEX]

Great review . Picked up my 229 Legion a few months after it came out and I'm still in love. I love that thing..

[@RenaissanceCotons]

I have this beast and I’m just a 5’4” tall woman. New to shooting and this is my 1st firearm. Brand new out of the box shot 300rd and ripped the target up! The weight didn’t kill my arms and I would have stayed longer but only had an hour. I can’t wait to hit the range again. My new love..Oh and it was only the 3rd time shooting

[@mariomunoz7167]

Can you conceal carry it with no issues? Heard its heavy & big.

[@MrSniper1960]

Thanks for a very well done review, on a fantastic pistol. I bought one of these, in .40 caliber, last month (Nov. '16). I'm not married (haha), so I "rewarded" myself with this pistol, for my birthday. I have over 30 handguns, but this one is in a league of its' own. I'd always wanted a SIG, but just hadn't got serious about shelling out the money for one. Man, I'm glad I did! As you say, this is a truly beautiful pistol, both in appearance, and as a shooter. When not at the range, this thing is just nice to look at, hold, dry-fire, and admire. This pistol almost calls out to you, "I'm ready! Let's go throw some lead!". It's top-of-the-line in ergonomics. Every part was designed for use and function. And, it is made to shoot fast! It has quickly become a favorite, for the range, and in my collection. I'd have no problem recommending this pistol to anyone who wants a top-notch pistol. I also feel that it is worth the money. Myself, I paid $1,179 (Nov. '16) for mine, and feel that I got a great deal, and my money's worth, as compared to the $1,359 retail price. This is my first SIG, and I'm in love with it!

A really fine piece of steel right there! I have the Legion P226 and its just fantastic! Nice review brother, best wishes, MIKE.

[@steveroach4895]

I just got one of these this weekend. I looked at the P229E and this one just felt better in my hand. I know what you mean about going through ammo! 45 rounds in no time. I'm a Sig fan now. The trigger is amazing as are the sights! This is the first gun that I didn't feel that I had to change something out of the box.

[@steveroach4895]

I picked up one of these a few months ago. It is amazing right out of the box. All I've ever done to it is shoot, clean and lube. The only thing I may do to it is get the short reach trigger as it is a bit far in DA mode. Single action is as good as my Kimber Pro Carry II. I carry either but it is nice to have 5 more rounds in the mag. I have had zero failures so far with the Sig. I had extractor issues with the Kimber. I did send the Kimber back to get it fixed and it is 100% so far. I still trust the Sig more... Thanks for the vids!

[@piperspalace2461]

it blows my mind how many people are crying about not wanting to scratch their guns. wear marks and scratches let you and others know that toy know how to use your gun. fondling it with white gloves and wiping it down with a Egyptian Cotton cloth every day will not make you a better marksman. I always spend a little more for my guns and I'm never afraid of a scratch, I welcome them.

[@lastmanoffthefield4572]

Brandon Piper agree, but it shouldn't damage easy, heard some people are having issues with the pvd finish.

[@Blakgun]

That was a problem with a specific serial number range when they first came out. Sig outsourced the finish work to a company that did a lousy job. The problem was resolved years ago. But because these guns sometimes sit on shelves for a long time before being sold for the first time it keeps cropping up. And that's why guys sometimes say they just bought a brand new Legion with a bad finish. If they look at the serial number it is always from a few years ago.

[@Tain950]

The Legion shouldn’t have a bad finish especially for the price it retails for. The SIG 226 and 229 are great guns but if I could improve anything on them it would definitely be the finish.

[@jaciel1964]

@@Blakgun do you know what serial number range it was?

[@Blakgun]

@@jaciel1964 No I don't. But I've been asking guys who have had that problem what date their gun was built and there hasn't been anything within the past 2-3 years with a problem. You may be able to get the information from Sig customer service, if you ask the question carefully.

[@CameronRedd]

Nice vid, thanks for sharing. One point about something you said concerning the slide-lock being small. I understand the point and many others agree with you, but..., for me it is GREAT. I have largish hands and with my grip the slide never locks back on other Sigs I have shot. I bought the P226 and without that feature I very may have passed. There are many things I love about the Legion but, for me, the price is steep. I doubt I would have purchased it if I thought the slide wouldn't lock open after last shot. I know many will say or think that I should adjust my grip, but it's my grip and I prefer to own pistols that fit me rather than me adjusting to the particular platform. That being said I want to make clear that the only con of the Sis P226 Legion is the price tag. I love everything about it. This pistol is in my everyday carry rotation and I love it! The P226 ranks up there with my CZ 75B and if money were not an obstacle I would buy the P229 Legion in a heartbeat. Thanks again for the video.

[@lizzapaolia959]

I am falling even more in love with Sig latelly. I had one of their earlier German frame 229's from back in the day, now own 2 - 229's and two of their 1911's. Tacops Carry and Spartan Carry...By far the best firearms I own. I outshoot my red dot super-Glocks with my Sig's all day long with iron sights. The trigger on my Spartan Carry came in at 4.2 lbs and my 229 Elite that's broken in came in at a crisp 3.4 lbs!!! (not double action obviously). Crazy awesome triggers. Love my Sig's!!!

The 229 Legion is an amazing platform. I have the RXP version with the Romeo One Pro rest do and outside of my Staccato C2 DPO, it’s my absolute favorite pistol and I would say I love it just as much as my C2. I also have the 226 Legion SAO which is of course optics ready as well. My next grab will likely be the 229 Legion in the single action only because that flag SAO trigger has no equal in this segment. Thanks for another great review brother, well done.

I bought this gun back in February and carry it almost every day IWB (after saving for quite a long time). I was concerned about it being too big/heavy, but with the right setup, it's really not that bad. I live in an open carry state and anywhere else I go is also pretty gun friendly, so printing isn't really that big of a deal. I freaking love it. Weight has never been that big of a deal for me, and with a decent belt, I don't really notice it.... Just my two cents on it. If they make a legion p227, I'm 100% in.

I have had many sigs over the years, I have liked them but at times I have had up to 80 handguns. I have handled many more. I am a master firearms trainer. I have the sig legion in the 229 and 226, along with what I call the mini legion the P225A1 Every word you speak of the legion is true. It is the best well worth the money. The smaller slide stop works great for me. The problem I had with sigs is that I tend to shoot with my thumbs high, coming from extensive use of 1911's. Keeping my thumbs high has always caused me to depress the slide stop on sigs and never have it actuate on the last round. The legions slide stop has eke jarred this problem. Great guns, great review, keep up the good work, I enjoy your vidios.

[@wraith67]

Looking forward to try out the new Legion, pick it up tomorrow. I've had lots of Sigs and lots of Glocks, my main complaint about Sigs was the high bore axis which always seemed more flippy (A G20 is better on that than even the Sig P220 10mm, which is Heavy) - which I always justified because I can't think of a Sig I've ever had that couldn't put bullets in a 2" group at 25 meters, regardless of the ammo.

[@CheifDegenerate]

I haven't finished watching the video yet, I'm still watching. but wanted to comment about the price you just stated. A lot of people complain about the price of Sig pistols, but I never hear anyone complain about how well they shoot, how they feel in the hand (after a long day at the range) or about their reliability. My only complaint about Sig pistols (other than the P250 and P320) is that I'm left handed so hitting the decocker switch is a bit of a chore, either have to give up my "proper grip" to bring my thumb over and push it, or I gotta give it a reach around with my right hand and still pull back my grip hand to do it. But when it comes to being able to handle rugged use and being dependable through anything (and usually more than) it's "competitors", there is a reason Sig can claim "to hell and back"

[@drumwhacker]

From what I've seen, there are generally two camps when it comes to the Sig Legion series: 1) People who sneer and think they are over-priced and over-hyped. 2) People who've actually shot them. Very few people in the latter camp seem to share the first opinion. I certainly don't. It's an excellent firearm in every way.

Great video! If you think the DA/SA Legion is awesome you should shoot the DAO version, it’s even more awesome! Best firearm I own!

[@antoniom.benjamin3522]

in 1995 i had just started as a Reserve Officer on a small town Police department having just come from working in the city Housing Projects i didn't want an Issued S&W 686 which was still being issued by the department so i purchased a Sig sauer P229 in 9mm the Union had the Chief allow Officers to buy 9mm and the Department provided ammo Golden Saber 147 grain .9mm lugar.

I spent $1200 on a Colt 1911 a few years ago and I hate it. I love shooting it but it rusts every time I carry it and sweat. Will be selling that and getting this.

[@chuckp4710]

I've had a P229 Legion in the 357 version on order from Cabela's for 6 weeks now but "no gun". Hard item to get.

[@Gimmithat491]

I have this and it’s an absolute demon. Best do it all pistol

[@MrHotroddoc]

Saving up to buy one. Hopefully next year I will have one.

[@ironbomb6753]

Did you ever get your SIG?

[@gshock3092]

Its a nice gun but i can't justify the price of it! I bought a German made one years ago and it was good. I got it used for 550 bucks and it was in excellent condition! Had both the 228 and 226 . I just bought the rex zero 1 and its a wonderful firearm ! And its gonna be a keeper!

[@shaneleonard7218]

I paid 900 for my p229 and got a new SRT trigger and spring kit. Just as good as a legion and cheaper.

[@Jaredbar]

Sweet gun

[@mikeO31082]

Would love to get a p226/229 legion at some point. Just can't decide between SA/DA or SAO. Built a p320 AXG to tide me over and it's probability the closest thing to a 226/229. Definitely feels a lot better in the hands than a standard p226 Nitron.

[@KryptonixX]

SAO is incredible. I just wish the safety wasn’t as obtrusive

[@marknrogers]

SAO ;)

[@RobertGarcia-pm1yq]

love it and its pretty got mine for $1,189. at northwest arms las vegas worth every cent.

[@Hegshot87]

Agreed

[@brc1945]

My CZ P-01 and SP-01 with Az. Custom work done up in Mesa, Az. will outshoot the more expensive Legion all day long. My CZ 75B right out of the box is equal to the 226 Legion. Plus they look better!

[@ChrisB-zz8dh]

CZ and Sig are my two favorite manufacturers. Both are awesome.

[@Aieaboy]

If you love the sig legion you'll love the CZ 75s. You'd have purchase a firearm from the custom series like the CZ 75 compact SDP OR shadow custom

[@Hegshot87]

I'm interested for sure

[@sheriffpapa396]

Yes, is the answer you’re looking for.

[@donfarris2465]

First time I've noticed a gun reviewer wrapping there right thumb over there left thumb when there shooting looks like it works!

[@robertlittle2429]

The trigger is Grey Guns, solid back, not hollowed out like factory Sig!

[@rainydays516]

Sig got it almost dead on with this gun. It's as close of a perfect gun for me as it gets, real satisfied with mine! I feel bad for people haven't shot it lol Good vid and enjoy that awesome piece.

[@Hegshot87]

Thanks man. All I had to do was dry fire 1 in the gun shop and I was sold!

[@marshalljones4315]

I own this same gun I do really love it but after a few different trips to the range and servile different people shooting it, it defiantly shoots way left (my specific gun does) at 7 yards aiming center target it hits about 4 inches left. I'm sure it's not just me because I can shoot servile other pistols fine and I have had servile other people shoot my legion also with similar results. amazing gun so far 600rds so far but it is aggravating that I'm going to have to adjust the windage a bit(never adjusted pistol sights before makes me a little nervous)

[@marshalljones4315]

+Bootbox77 will that method ruin my slide? because I hear people say that you need one of those expensive site adjustment tools.

[@Lunabjj]

Nice work. Can you do a side by side comparison of full size guns: Ppq, 229, g19, vp9? I'm being selfish because that's my short list of full size guns I'm planning on getting

[@Hegshot87]

Yeah Id like to do one with the G19 Mos if I can get enough people that would like to see it

[@bpear1600]

I've had the P229 Legion since April but just got a chance to shoot it this week. I love everything about the gun but I wasn't crazy about my accuracy from 7 yards even though my 75 shot group was no bigger than a saucer. I was shooting into the sun and had difficulty centering the front sight. I'm surprised you guys didn't do better. There's no way I'd carry this so a holster isn't that important but for range purposes this gun as well as the P226 Scorpion fits perfectly in the free OWB holster Sig gives you when you buy a P320C. Another thing. The little cardboard carry case is about useless. I mean, really, what are you going to do with this piece of crap? :)

[@kamasutraguy]

That's a vapor deposited finish. Should be extremely tough. I have five different Sigs, and I love them all. P238, 938, 227, Legion 226& 229. Each has a special purpose. In the realm of semi-autos, I consider them as good as you can get. Don'T get me wrong, I love my 1911's, but oh you kid.

[@Wallriss]

Phlster is where it's at
