After checking out a few newfangled Sig crunchentickers at the LGS last night, I have come to the following conclusions:
1) Sig makes some pretty nice pistols
2) DA/SA has some advantages and the DA first shot takes some getting used to but can be dealt with
3) I greatly prefer the size, heft, and handling characteristics of the P226 over the P229 (personal preference)
4) I like the Short Action Trigger
5) I hate, loathe, and despise the short trigger because of its extreme curvature
I was developing a blister on my trigger finger after just 100 rounds through a P229 with the short trigger. So my question is this: can the short trigger found on the majority of the P series guns be swapped out for the normal more traditional Sig trigger without losing the SRT? Is this something I could attempt or is it best left to a gunsmith or Sig to do?
The shop had a P226 Extreme and a P226 MK25 in stock. I liked the grip profile on both of these vs. the E2 grip. The Extreme has the SRT and a short trigger with the normal P226 rail, whereas the MK25 has the more traditional trigger but a different rail. I am thinking I would like a pistol with the standard grip profile, standard P226 rail (or no rail), SRT, and normal trigger but I'm not sure this combination is available out of the box. Am I missing something?
Thanks!
