Not the 226.....but I do have the 220 Dark Elite...love that gun, will be my CC gun when I get my non-res permits.......Maryland sucks

Curiously whats the significance of the dark elite? I havent handled a 220 in over a decade but the beavertail, trigger guard and rails are the first thing I notice (or I think I notice).

There are actually a few different Elites, but the Dark Elite mainly differs because its all black, including the black aluminum grip......the beavertail is a great addition, for me atleast.....the trigger was made slightly larger to accomadate shooting with gloves on if its cold or any other condition in which the shooter might use gloves, the DE also has a Short Reset Trigger which is also very nice....and you noticed the rails, basically if you wanna put one of the accessories there

Also, when you order it...if its not in stock, you have to option to order it with or without a threaded barrel  <thumbsup>

I used to have a Sig P226.  I let it go in the caliber consolidation effort when I got out of the .40S&W game, along with my H&K USPf and XD-40.

Great gun, but the grip was pretty fat.
