not a fan of the 226/229 but to each is own. they are quite popular. but i do own two sigs and enjoy shooting both



I have a P365 and love it. It’s my favorite ccw so far. I really dig your P320 too. I’d like to get my hands on a thumb safety model like that.

It's a P226 Legion SAO, and I will take my SP-01, P-01 Omega, and 75 B Omega over it any day of the week!
The "Legion" thing is pure marketing hype.

 ;D OMG... I'm blind... yeah.. I was focused on P229... because that's the one I shot... anyway... the difference is only 3 (229-226)  ;)
I love my CZs.. but somehow P229SAO worked better for me...
and yes, "Legion" is a great marketing... however in this particular model I found it more than just marketing... it was much better firearm than regular P229.

Actually while I think the price of the Legion line  is higher than it should be it is simply incorrect to call it "pure marketing hype". There are specific differences in the line. The base model guns generally have either plain white dot sights or the Sig-Lite sights both of which are lousy. The legions have the much better X-Ray3 sights. The base model guns do not have the short reset trigger parts and the Legions do. The base guns do not have the P-SAIT adjustable trigger and the Legions do except for the SA models. The frame is cut higher on the Legions with a pronounced beavertail where the base guns are not even close in this regard. The otb trigger on the Legions is generally much better than the base guns and while the early Legion gray finish was not good the later Cera coted models are much nice.
So there are definite differences in the Legions.

Now that's a very decent piece you got there, this is a must have among the SIGs.
