What would you buy? Just ordered a CZ shadow 2 and have a bit more to spend. I have 4 sigs already (2 p220's in 10mm and 45, and p229 sse in 40, and a 716 DMR) I was thinking of buying a p226 stainless elite in 9mm, a 226 legion in 357 sig, or possibly a p320 x-5 (not a big fan of polymer), but was thinking about giving it a chance. ANY suggestions would be great. It does not have to be a Sig. this will just be a range gun and possible night stand gun.

Thanks

I'd be looking to buy two used SIGs--that's $750 each. That's a good budget per gun. Maybe a P226 and P239 (or P225/P6). You'd have all sizes covered then

I would take that plus a little extra and get an MCX.
Or a nice 1911.

Buy something used.

What would I buy? If I had $1500 that was designated for a gun purchase, no question that it would be a S&W Model 41, .22 rimfire pistol. You couldn't ask for a better range/target pistol. Super accurate, ammo is cheap but it wouldn't qualify for nightstand duty.

I recently had $1,500 to spend on guns.

I chose two....both in 9mm. They arrived at my ffl on the same day....got a little discount for transferring two at once, lol.

The two that I went with covered range fun and carry:

*Springfield Range Officer in 9mm ($695)
*Sig P226 Custom Carry ($857)

Two magazines came with the RO + 4 more in the mail from their current promotional offering. Three 15-round magazines came with the P226, plus I already had four 20-rounders from my TacOps and a pair of 18-round MecGars I bought.

Well covered with 9mm range, carry and hd guns now.

I would choose the Stainless Elite over the Legion just based on the finishes.

Definitely a P226...in any flavor.
The SSEs are nice.
So are the MK25s.

Good luck with your search.

LWRC 5.56. I shoot rifle left handed and they have AWESOME ambi controls standard on their lower.

I say get a 229 in .40, and then get a .357 barrel for it.
Then get a 239 in .40, and get both 357 and 9MM for it.
You will probably have bout 1500 in all of this.

the 226 feels "heavy" to me and there are really no other SIG's I like.

 

[GoneBallisticInAlabama]

BTW, if you just want to get rid of that $1,500, you can just give me that money and I'll buy a gun for me!

This flies in the face, of those mentioning getting "2" pistols for $1500... it's just that you don't see to many of these used... E 26R-9-BSE-SAO-RX

 

[aceman4]

P226 SSE to match your P229 SSE. Can't go wrong with a P228 West German.

 

[asdfzxcv]

With 1500, forget the P226 SSE, go straight for a used P226 X5! Also, get a 357 sig barrel for your p229.

M11A1 or P229SAS 9mm and a Glock 17.

P227 tax ops.

Based on your choices, go for the P226 Legion and spend the rest on ammo.
You already have the stainless, go for something different.

 

[yellowlt7]

With $1500 I'd have 3 options.
1. CZ Shadow 2 (you got it)
2. Stainless framed classic P series (you got it)
3. Dan Wesson 1911.

CDNN Sports has on Gunbroker P220 45ACP Super Match for $999.99! Spend the other 500 bux on a P6 or ammo. Done!

Everyone needs at least 1 1911
