I am kinda done with this issue OK, so I called Sig about my P229 Dark Elite (and I was nice despite how I felt). Here's how it went: Me: My sight came loose after 200 rounds Sig:Oh yea, the sight will come loose unless you loctite it Me: When did you tell me that? Sig: We didn't Me...

Funny story Ok, just got back from the range and put about 200 rounds through the P229 Elite. Accuracy was superb. The range was empty and I was getting 1" to 2" groups from just about every distance and shooting stance (except one handed and I am going to take some lessons for that). Function...

Gun is back from Sig OK, just received my P229 back from Sig. Here it is by the numbers: First, if you put a note on top of the gun before you ship it, they don't read it. The armorer only cares about what the Customer Service rep wrote in the notes. The totally disregard any other info...

I appreciate the feedback and yes, I understand the P229 Elite is not a match pistol. But I have three other Sigs that behave really well no matter what I feed them. The Elite is brand new and had two minor trigger issues as well as the barrel change issue. If Sig sends it back and says it's...

Pay for what you get I would understand a large discrepancy if this were a $500 gun but when you pay over a $1k for a pistol called the "Elite" you expect the best of the lot. All aspects being the same you should be able to switch stock barrels at will, otherwise what's the point? You have to...

The gun is on the way to Sig for answers. Not sure if anyone here actually want's to know what it was....

I recently purchased a Sig P229 Dark Elite in 9mm. The gun shoots very well and POI is right on with the sights. I also purchased a threaded barrel for the same gun directly from Sig. The new threaded barrel has tighter groups for some reason at 7 yards but all shots are 1-1.5 inches left of the...

Issue Resolved The answer is YES, you can get a stiffer trigger if you leave the spring out for a few weeks. Reassembled the gun and after a few days took it to the range and it worked fine. Not positive that the numerous times the gun was reassembled didn't help move something into place but...

One more for Smith BG or Ruger LCP Both the smith and Ruger are very nice guns in 380. The Smith kicks a bit less due to design and weight but both have enough recoil to require a firm grip. If you go with the SW Bodyguard you must get the Galloway Precision Short Trigger Bar. It makes a big...

I recently completely disassembled my SW Bodyguard 380. I had the gun disassembled for about a month. Does leaving the hammer spring out for a month increase the trigger pull??? When I reassembled the gun the trigger pull had doubled. I did polish some of the internals with Flitz and a cloth (no...
