Hi
I have a *FEW of questions regarding my P226. While I ask my two questions I would like to hear more about Sigs from you all as well. Any positive as well as negative experiences with your Sigs please share them. Even if you have any fixes or any techniques that are particular to improving performance of your Sig pistols.
My two issues are: 1) I have owned a few Sigs and now finally settled with a 9mm P226 Elite. I like the way it shoots. I like the package which included 3 magazines and night sights. I like the SRT trigger, and decocking is great. It has the rail so I can use it as nightstand weapon with laser/light. Even a bit heavy but very reliable to say the least. However, after a few magazines through it, I start feeling a slight bite on the tip of my trigger finger. It feels like as if there is vibration of some sort that starts taking its toll after a while- leaving the tip of the finger slightly numb. What am I doing wrong, and how can I fix it?
2) I am concerned about the overall finish. It just wears off every time its used in a holster. Seems like the finish is not made to last. I am not saying that everything comes off just that new gun glare that comes off of Sigs very easily compared to other pistols. Any thoughts?
*3) I came across these two videos. They show SigP226 malfunctioning in sand and mud. So some this may not be an issue as they keep their guns squeaky clean, but to some of who use the handguns as survival tools it may mean a lot. Please comment on this as well:
Thank you
