So I put the $$ down to order a Sig P226 Tactical Operation .40 yesterday.

 

I'm doing the happy dance in anticipation of my first .40 pistol. She has the short reset trigger, 4 15 round mags, siglite rear sights and try glow tritium fiber optic front sight.

 

Does anyone have one of these? Just curious if you had any pointers for this soon to be first time Sig owner.

Good god. I have been checking out that pistol too.

 

So sweet. Please post pics when you pick her up!

I definitely will! Going to be mid April being I just made a purchase in the past two weeks.

I have a P226 Equinox in .40 S&W with 2600 failure free rounds through it. It has the same night sights as the Tac Ops. These are the best night sights that I have seen. It's also a sweet shooter in .40 S&W. You won't be disappointed.

Sounds real sweet...you better post pics when she arrives

3rd for pics!!

How muchie?

The beast arrived at PK90's shop so I went to visit it today. She is beautiful! I can't wait to get her home, clean her up, then take her out!

 

Unfortunately, I can't buy till April 21 to be OGAM compliant.

I am a big fan of my .226 9mm. Congrats!

+1 on the 226, though mine is 9mm in German Steel

I have a TacOps in .40 and I would recommend that you keep it generously lubed (I have had good luck with Slide Glide) from the first shot. I had some minor issues initially with uneven wear on the frame from the slide.The only modification I made was upgrading the polymer guide rod with an all metal one from Grayguns. I have not had any other issues and I am very pleased with how well it fires.

Thanks for the tip. Do you use the slide glide lite or medium?

I noticed on my 229 that it likes to run wet also.

I have been using the medium since the temp range most closely represents the temps I shoot in (mostly outdoors). Havent had any issues with it so far and the small tub has lasted me a long time. I just brush on after every cleaning.
