My GF picked up her P229 E2 today. Brand new, manufacture date of September 2010.

 

Took it to RTSP and put about 300 rounds through it. She shot very well and loves the gun. It fits her hand very well. 3 mags, reduced reach trigger, ergonomic grips and SRT all combine to make this an excellent fit.

 

I shot it and the night sights make target acquisition very easy. Super Sig. I might have to look at one like it soon.

I didn't see it mentioned, but is it 9mm? A friend of mine got one not too long ago and he loves it. Congrats!

I have a P229 SAS Gen1. Had the DAK trigger converted to DA/SA with SRT trigger. I love it. It's a great shooter. Mine is a .40 cal.

 

Next step is sig night sights.

congrats. The 228/ 229 line are my favorite sigs. Very well balanced.

Just change the front sight. Sigs bar dot sights are the best imo. Put some luminescent (spelling) paint on the rear and a night sight up front and you will be gtg.

Sorry. Typed this out on the phone last night,

 

Yes, it is a 9MM.

 

The night sites are AMAZING. SO easy to acquire and hold a target.

 

Overall, thsi is really a very nice little gun, and I did not like the 2 P226s I had shot prior, but this one might have convinced me otherwise re: Sigs.

I have a P229 im thinking about selling if you wanted one for yourself

e2?

No its an older one, without a rail... I think it is a german made one, ill have to check, not exactly sure how to find out..

 

I have 2 barrels for it, 357sig and .40, it has night sites as well, SA/DA.

e2?

 

The e2 is really only a grip change. So if its not, just get the e2 grips and whola

actually i may have the e2 grips...

 

i bought it used and he included 2 sets...

Triple aerial numbered ? Does it have German proof marks?

 

Non rails are awesome.

Ill have to check when i get home.. what exactly are german proof marks?

I jump on the bandwagon, P229s (as well as P228s) are excellent Sigs! E2s don't work for my hands, but that's what is great about Sigs - many options for perfect fit to the shooter!

 

Cannot tell you how many folks want to acquire my all-stainless, no rail P229s (not happening guys/gals).

In 40 or. 9? That gas to be worth a small fortune right now.

Lol. I have that. You talked me out of the night sights when you did the trigger job. I like the rear bar / front night sight, but like the 3 night sight dots better.

 

I have to shoot it more to see what I want to do.

If its all stainless it is. The sports fetch a good amount of $$ in a normal market. Now they have to be through the roof.

Ill have to take a better look when i get home tonight. I really may have to put it up for sale, esp if i can get a good amt for it...

 

I need to fix our fence and get some dental work done

Well if it has a black ifalon finish or a black nitron finish, the frame will be alloy and not stainless.

 

I think it was about a year ago sig started offering black all stainless steel guns.

What if I told you I had both .40 and 9, and neither are any sort of recent production? Given what's over your picture, you likely know what that means about mine and my .40 has it's unfired, consecutive serial number twin!

Nice. I'll admit I'm officially jealous. Good for you.

LOL! Thanks. Sigs have been my choice of pistol for a long time...
