    I've always wondered how good my luck was. At the time I had not bothered to learn how to properly care for my weapons, and I'm certain that I fired dozens, probably over 100rds, before I realized what had happened. I kinda had a "shoot it until it don't work no more" attitude back then. It functioned 100% for God knows how long before I saw that one side had the pins sliding/drifting out, but the other end of the pins strangely did not move inward simultaneously.Hmmmmm......

    Live & learn, I figure.

    A Sig P226 is a world class combat pistol. If you grease the rails and oil parts that turn, you will be fine.

    I always laugh at comments anyone says about wearing out most modern pistols. Fact is far more twits on the errornet talk about shooting than those that actually do. If you have $20K to spend on ammo to wear out a $800 pistol who gives a shit. You got your monies worth out of it, don't be such a twit.

    If I were looking for one it would be one made 20 years ago or if you could afford one a German Mastershop X5 L1 made 10 years or so ago.

    It is painful to stand near a gun counter in most big box stores. And you feel bad when some poor bastard is trying to learn something and commando Bob is just putting on a ignorance clinic.

    I have owned multiple SiG's in my life, the only one I kept is a P226 "NSW" serialized pistol. It is Spooky Accurate, and for years I only used TW-25B on it, now it gets Slip 2000 EWL.

    I've shot a p226 that an associate has owned for ten years, when we bring several pistols to the range to practice with, an it's been as accurate as any of my newer pistols.
