6132expert Posted June 20, 2012 Report Share Posted June 20, 2012 I walked in the coolest shop today. It is about 40 miles from my house. I was looking to see what they had in 1911 and as I was looking I come across a Sig 226 now Im not nor have I ever really been huge on hand guns so I really don't know what is and what aint. I am thinking of going back after a little reading. What I did know when I seen it is that it is a respected firearm. The price on it is 559 out the door it is used but very little wear on the end of the barrel. If I could get it for 500 otd would I be doing good? The guy is a dealer for sure and he would probably come down to that. Tell what does everyone think. Here is my thing I would be buying it to resale with that said could I make money on it? Or I am ready to go tomorrow and drop the cash on a new sig scorpion 45 to keep for my self. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edgecrusher Posted June 20, 2012 Report Share Posted June 20, 2012 I'd buy the scorpion in a heart beat if it was masshole compliant. My 2¢ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6132expert Posted June 20, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2012 HAHA I bet you would. Why do fine Americans stay in states such as the one your in? I need to know what to look at on this sig to be sure it is good to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Team Helotes Posted June 20, 2012 Report Share Posted June 20, 2012 If it is in good shape that is not a bad price. What is it 40, 357Sig or 9mm? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6132expert Posted June 20, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2012 It is in 9mm, and I can't recall seeing an anchor on the slide. So after taking a look at sig's site there are many models of the 226. I think I am going to at the least look at it agine. Then there is that scorpion 1911 in the back of my head.

Team Helotes Posted June 20, 2012 Report Share Posted June 20, 2012 The anchor is the new Navy version. I think it has the inside parts coated so they can be used around sea water with less rusting.Here is a photo of mine. I had the frame painted tan and added set of grips from Sig. I think the camo grips made the gun.I am thinking of having the black painted dark brown like on the grips. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
