I've mentioned before how the SP2022 has become my #1 favorite Sig over all others, much to my own surprise as well as others. The ONLY possible thing I would change about it after daily carry for 12+ months is if it came without the Picatinny (sp?) rail. While a lot of folks like and use them, I personally have never had use for one, and much prefer the sleeker front-end of a Sig that doesn't have a rail.
So, thinking along those lines, and the fact that the SP2022 is not available in a rail-less version, I am seriously considering the careful removal of the rail on mine. Since the pistol is fairly inexpensive to begin with, and I have ZERO interest in parting with it, I'm not the least bit concerned with any decrease in resale value by doing this. I only want to slick it up for my own personal satisfaction.
Anybody have any GOOD reason(s) I shouldn't do this? Please feel free to try to talk me out of it if you wish before I begin working on it, because obviously once I start, it cannot be undone. Obviously care will need to be taken since the S/N plate is located under the rail, and I wouldn't want to cut into that. Other than that precaution.... anybody got any reason to not proceed?
