Background: The P229 was my first ever gun when I got my carry license (paid 975 b4 tax). I bought it because 1) at the time I was more comfortable with carrying a hammer fired gun without manual safety, 2) My slave state has 10 round capacity law, but it is fine with having pre-ban mags, 3) I liked the looks and fill of it. The issues I stated noticing with the P229 was 1) the long tigger reset, 2) Night sights were lousy in the day time, 3) high bore axis (too much muzzle flip for my liking). Since noticing these issues I have installed the SRT Trigger kit (trigger rest is now like a slice of heaven), I have also put some trijicon HD night sight on there to make day time shooting better. The only thing I can't fix is that high bore axis. I'm quit sentimental about this gun.
Problem: I want the P320 X Carry but my slave state has a rooster of approved firearms and it's not technically on there. I also don't want to spend additional money. So I am considering trading or selling the P229 for a P320. After doing so I would buy an X Carry frame and install the P320 trigger chassis and slide on the X Carry frame.
Question: would trading or selling a P229 for regular P320 be worth it? Should I just wait to get more money and have both? PS I know the P229 is the superior gun, but that bore axis and its controllability has been bothering me.
