Police Equipment Reviews is taking a step aside from the Glock pistols and talking today about the Sig Sauer pistols, specifically the Sig Sauer P226. Sig Sauer has been making some of the best police guns for quite some time and popular in the police industry, federal law enforcement, and military. One thing that separates the Sig Sauer pistols from the rest, is their workmanship. They are built to the highest standards and only contain the best materials. A special feature of the Sig Sauer guns is the ability to customize them, mainly putting a custom grip on them. A Captain at our work has a Sig Sauer 1911 with custom logo’d wood grip. This gun looks amazing! No wonder why it is kept in a shadow box.
The Sig Sauer P226 more commonly known as the Sig P226, comes in three different calibers; 9mm, .357, and .40 caliber. Within the Sig P226 family there are several different variations. There is a special tactical version, Navy Seal version, and other versions with slight deviations from the others.
In San Diego, the Sig Sauer P226 is popular for duty issued weapons. It seems everybody that carries them is extremley happy. Police Equipment Reviews has shot the Sig Sauer P226 before and liked it. We felt the gun compared to the Glock 40 that we carry daily. It boils down to a personal prefernce, one that Police Equipment Reviews doesn’t think you can go wrong in.
