Wish we had on roster P226 optics ready

Yes fancy models ask for higher price. But why is the base model 226 over 1k. Reputation?

Beretta has almost as great a reputation but half the cost.

Just saying I think it’s time they sell them for 799 or something unless COGS are truly that high.

I like my M9 but the P226 is better all around and more fun to shoot

Cutting a slide for an optic is one of the few mods that you will never lose money on or regret. Just don't get it cut with a holosun K cut or something silly for a full size gun.

I’m thinking about a DPP cut just like they do from the factory and throw an Eotech EFLX on it. I’m a fan of using 6 MOA on defensive pistols

LA trip soon

Isn’t it risky to cut a P226 slide? Because of the spring thing on top

I haven’t looked into that yet
Maybe buying one is easier
Now lemme look for that slide…

Just buy a optic slide.

NO. I want SAO P226. Its hawt.

Agree with this 100%

I agree it would be nice. At least you can buy them.

They do occasionally show up on the used market; not cheap. Depends on how bad you want them.

Agree, like right now. There are a couple of SAO 226 XFive Legions in the marketplace for just over $3K...think there is a Reserve for $4K+ too.

(the 2011 crowd just all in unison rolled their eyes).
