Why does /k/ fucking hate the Sig P226 so much?

Why?

Is it because you have a subconcious hatred for SEALs and they remind you of them and every normalfag that worships them after watching movies about them?

Is it because you can't afford it or because a certain someone shitposts about it?

Why?

Have you ever shot it?

You don't like DA/SA?

Do you actually think the Mk25 or Legion is overpriced despite not knowing what features are put into each respective gun?

You think the bore axis (which isn't really high to begin with) actually contributed to your poor shooting skills when you used it at the local range for 32 minutes?

Why?

Point me to any other gun like the M9 or CZ75 and you won't get a bunch of buttflustered memery about them.
>>
Because it's an overpriced piece of shit meme gun.

Get a Glock

>>31839925
because they are too poor to buy one

I would love a P226, too bad they're made by Sig Sauer. I'll get one when Ron Cohen dies.

I'm a sig fan boy but I understand why. Most major pistols don't have any real significant features nowadays to make the price be that much different, and sigs offer nothing that much better for the price. I still think they're comfy though. Also it doesn't feel comfy for a lot of people.

this is also why, alot of us are fags

While we are on Sigs, why should I not buy a Stainless P229? They are so sexy.
>>
>>31840025
Get the Legion 229 for the undercut on the trigger guard and reduced beavertail.
>>
>>31840027
Fuck that, I want it all stainless. its pure sex.
>>
I don't like the trigger, recoil feel, bore axis. Even with the axis trigger.
>>
I like heavy steel pistols but sigs doublestacks are always so bulky.

>>31839925
I just think they're really boring to look at.
>>
Quality is shit thanks to the current CEO
>>
>>31839925
It's a meme. /k/ hates all things SIG.
>>
I like them more than I like Glock but I've never really liked Glock a ton so that's not saying much.
>>
People ridicule Sig because of how they've become as a company in recent years. The combination of declining quality and obnoxious marketing that comes off as though it's trying to appeal to boys in middle school makes them and easy and justifiable target for everyone who's been let down by the American gun industry as of late.
>>
>>31840893
I like the P210 and P230
>>
>>31839925
I hate it and all new Sigs because the stainless slides start beating up the frame rails within the first 200 rounds and Sig is aware of this but refuses to come up with a solution. West German Sigs never had this problem, but Exeter shit has problems at every turn.

But for the price I'd rather get this.

I will forever despise Sig for inventing the DAK and then convincing some fudd Captain in my department that "its safe like a revolver."
>>
Functionally, it doesn't provide any advantage over many other pistols for sometimes more than half the price of a Sig.

different gun but whatever, get yourself a gun that shoots
>>
>>31839925
The trigger is wholly inferior to what it should be for a pistol of its price point (this extends to the mk25, Legion series, X-Five, and X-Six as well). Too long in both modes, and too heavy in SA.

Other than that it's a fine gun.
>>
>>31839925
Quality is bad
Bore axis is high
Controls are weirdly located
Gun is heavy for size

Nearly bought a Sig legion but saw how shit the quality control was that I decided not to and I'm happy I didn't. The magwell was also not even flared or beveled despite checkering being placed everywhere. The slide release and decocker also were extremely difficult to use in that they only engaged at the extreme end of travel. Mag release was too small.

I did think it shot nicely though
>>
>>31843153
The legion trigger is actually nice but the adjustable screw is stupid since it isn't really adjustable and can come out and lock the gun up

Another reason why I did not get it...>>31843228
>>
I had a p226 in 40S&W

I loved it
>>
>>31845436
Does having a shit gun in a shit caliber cancel it out into a good gun? like a double negative?
>>
>>31839925
I've owned 3 P226's, and I want to like them, but I just don't. I had a W. German 9mm, a German .40 and an exetershit 9mm (my favorite of the bunch).
Here are some reasons I don't like them.
The older models with the removable breach are better looking, but the finish is garbage and at the machining is rough. They are uncomfortable in the hand, they would be greatly improved if they didn't have that fucking goiter in the grip for the decocker. They are expensive, which I don't mind so much, but the Mk25 should be $700 and the Legion should be $800. The trigger on the standard model is not great, the E2 grips are fucking awful (but cool looking). Also, they tend to not work that well unless they are wet with oil, the dirtier they get the more erratic the ejection.
>>
>>31839925
>Do you actually think the Mk25 or Legion is overpriced despite not knowing what features are put into each respective gun?
Like the ability to choke on the same shit that other firearms don't choke on? The average design that doesn't offer anything over everyone else? The cute little boat anchor? Tell us what a sig p226 actually brings to the table faglord
>>
>>31845809
Haha, what? The MK25 is notorious for handling hotter than average loads that would make a Glock or mid-range 1911 explode.

The Legion is a piece of garbage safe queen.

it's because /k/ likes yo be a hipster with guns. they think that the more obscure and cheap a gun is the better.

come on think about it, /k/s favorite gun is a 5 foot long, wooden, piece of shit from the turn of last century. they like poorfag guns and gimmick shit.

no, the P226 is just too good, too refined.

i have an idea. take the P226, give it a shitty finish, wood everything, and tell stories about how some commie faggot died in the freezing snow in some old as fuck war clutching it as he uttered hit last lamentations about the capitalist pigs, and they might warm up to it.

The DAK has a nice trigger pull for double action only. I just wish it didn't have two reset points.
>>
>>31846191
??? It's cheaper than a decent rifle. Why do Sig fanboys pretend it's so expensive to be exclusive, rather than merely overpriced? It's a behavior that reminds me of Apple fanatics.
