Yesterday got to handle the new Sig 226 E2.
If blindfolded and handed the E2 and then the 226, you'd not think them the same weapon.
Understand from Sigforum that this was accomplished with same frame but 3-4 different internal parts (Mainspring & boot). Also understand older models may be converted by installing these parts, but such part kits may not be available for some time (year +/-).
Anyone heard anything more?
Wonder if the 220 will ever get this improvement?
