I've heard that sig alloy frames tend to crack from the takedown lever hole because it absorbs most of the recoil energy. I have inspected mine and on the left hole where the takedown lever is located, is a small scratch, most likely a tool mark from the factory because it's anodized. I haven't...

What is the difference between the small, medium, and large frames? My plan is to swap my subcompact 3.6” slide on to an X-compact coyote frame. I have purchased the 15 round mags for this swap, but I can’t figure out which size frame I’m supposed to buy... Any help is greatly appreciated!

Anyone know where I can find a P229 Legion frame? And, what’s a fair price?

Hi everybody, I'm new to the forum. Just picked up a police trade-in P226 40s&w DAK the other day. The gun looked solid with expected holster wear, plus someone switched the mag release to the right side. When I was cleaning it, I noticed it had no grease and very little if any oil, also it...

This thread is related to another thread I started regarding what seems to be excessive wear on my new P238, however it isn't a duplicate post (at least, I don't consider it to be) because this one has a different purpose. I'm extremely interested in seeing other P238 owner's barrel and frame...

Hi, I purchased a sig p226 sao a week ago and have 260 rounds through it. First 110 frame was lubed with an ample amount of frog lube. Second 150 frame was lubed with a lot of brianenos regular slide glide applied every 50 rounds. Should this lip be here on both the left and right of the...

I just picked up my 229 brand new in it's case. I've got a couple quick questions. This is my first all metal gun. I assume the protocol here is to give the frame a nice oil rub down along with the slide, correct? Hoppes Elite OK? I hope, because I already used it. :D Next question...and...
