Ha! Nice catch. I had to go down and look to see if you're ID skills were accurate….and indeed they are! I'll notify their owner they've been located.
Noted re the finish wear. The Elite only has about 8K though it, but it usually only sees holster use on match days. The X5 is new to me and still under 1K total. I'm a pretty recent convert to the all stainless guns but initial reports are good. Once you get em sprung right, they sure do shoot flat.

My GGI duty tweaked 226.
I always thought Todd's comments on that were interesting. They don't seem to apply to me and how I grip the pistol though. That is to say that on a non-beavertailed Sig, the web of my hand doesn't protrude up to where it "rolls over the top", if that makes sense. My hand sits in the exact same place on both types; the beavertail doesn't limit *my* ability to get as high as *I* need to. I could see perhaps it doing so with someone who has meatier hands though. I wear XL sized gloves, but my hands are on the slimmer side. I haven't observed any shootability difference between the two frame types.
