Sig P226 MK25 Review | Is Double Action Still Relevant?
Vložit
- čas přidán 7. 04. 2022
- The Sig Sauer P226 MK-25 is one of the most proven handguns in the entire world. The Sig P226 is synonymous with duty proven. Having been carried by Navy SEALs and law enforcement across the country for years, these pistols still have a place in modern society.

They feature phosphated internals and a chrome lined barrel for corrosion resistance. Then the pistol is marked with a laser engraved anchor in the slide and FID tag on the frame. My particular pistol has the E2 grips with are a substantial improvement over standard P226 grips. The pistol has three dot Sig lite night sights and two 15 round magazines.
With a DA/SA pistol they usually have decocker. The one found on this pistol is very easy to use and works extremely well. The first trigger pull is very heavy and deliberate which makes these pistols very safe and then follow up shots will have a much lighter pull. P226 pistols have always been very accurate for myself but they take a lot of practice to be accurate with. The double/ single action is not as user friendly as a striker fired pistol but they can be every bit as accurate with practice.
The Sig P226 MK25 is the perfect pistol for someone’s collection or the duty role. Hardened and proven in ever way. They garner a reputation like the 1911 and have a large following of loyal fans and professional end users.

I love, and carry DA/SA as a responsibly-armed citizen. I think striker-fired has become the trend because it's cheaper to produce, so results in more competitive pricing, and it's easier to learn. In the age of Amazon prime consumers want lower prices and simpler use.
They are cheaper to produce due the polymer frame and the overwhelming majority of DA/SA guns are steel or alloy framed. Definitely easier to shoot a striker fired gun due to the consistent trigger pull. Thank you for watching!
Love your content Graham!
They don’t sell them cheap lol
DA/SA is way better than Striker fire gun.
Just got my first 226. Loving it so far and yes...accurate 👍
I have a 226 MK25 & a 226 Tac Ops, both are awesome pistols! My wife was quite the novice when we got together & was initially afraid of guns, having poor instruction from ex’s. I started her off with a couple .22s until she felt comfortable moving up. When she shot my 226s she fell in love! They’re too big & heavy for her to carry comfortably but when we’re at the range she makes sure I bring them. She likes Sig enough to now carry a P365XL. From scared of guns to carrying her own.
Hell yeah! I love it! Thanks for sharing
Been a Glock guy for decade. Initially I thought Sig's where antiquated. But recently I've been moving towards DA/SA actions and been loving it over striker fires. And just recently started to really want a P226. I'm now of the mindset that the P226 is hands down an awesome pistol. 👍👍 Love Sig!!!
It is an awesome pistol and they shoot great
Video content and quality is on point. This handgun will be my first firearm purchase. A lot of people have tried to convince me to get something cheaper, but I like nice things and this is pretty damn nice.
Great video!
I love my MK 25, it honestly is my favorite over all my Sigs. I also have a huge fondness for the M11 A1, the baby brother to the MK 25, that little beauty has become my EDC and having that first trigger pull being about 10lbs, adds to my comfort level as I carry in the appendix position.
Outstanding job on the video, it’s nice to see someone demonstrating the MK 25’s capabilities.
Best!
John.
Thank you! Much appreciated. It’s a fantastic handgun, as are all 226 pistols!
I have a German made P226 (1992 by the serial number) and I love it, still runs like a champ with no issues, shoots like a dream. It's a fat boy though, generally lives by my bedside, occasionally OWB carried. I love DA/SA, that first trigger pull is my sort of safety for the firearm. When holstering, I place my thumb on the back of the hammer such that if something got hooked on the trigger and pulled it, I'd feel it in the hammer and prevent it.
Been carrying a p365, but considering a Baretta PX4 Storm for an EDC because of the DA/SA.
SIGs are just good guns, I remember I had the M9 as an MP but the MPI and SRT guys all had Sigs and it was so much fun playing going back and forth between both. That DA/SA is awesome. I love the studio look, keep it up!
Thank you Ruben! I enjoy both the M9 and P226, both are great guns 💪
My normal EDC is a Sig P320. However, I still train with my P226. I can't say enough good things about it. Very rarely, when feeling nostalgic, I carry it. I usually do more dry fire drills that morning before leaving with it than normal. But I find the weight difference is a good reminder that I'm carrying the 226 and not my 320 Xcompact. Thank you for the interesting video.
You are welcome! The 320 platform is much more forgiving, but the 226 is timeless. Great choices
My main carry is a p226 legion in 357 SIG , I love the p226 and p229 no safety to mess with , reliable, easy to maintain and it's double strike capable if you have a light primer strike ... I'm a 1911 guy but for self defense I trust the p226 much more .. great video
Glad you liked the video! Thank you for wathing’n
I think the longer we see strikers (which are great), the more the P226/9 and 1911/2011 platforms shine. My P226’s are not my EDC-X9’s but you can get 3 for the price of the Wilson. For what you get, the P226 platform is a steal! Great video!
I think you are right! Thank you!
I have a Sig P226 MK25, and it is my favorite most reliable plus gorgeous gun I own! I loved seeing this and it getting the flowers it deserves, thanks bud!
Much deserved! One of the finest combat and duty pistols ever made.
I love my MK25, and I can't explain why, but I seem to shoot it even better than other P226s I've shot. It's a fantastic, professional-grade pistol that gives you the feeling of a solid, time-tested confidence from the moment you pick it up.
It sure does!
How does that grip feel? I mean, since it holds a LOT of food, my first thought is that the grip is a bit meaty. I have wide hands but short(ish) fingers and while I can handle large grips just fine, I prefer thinner/smaller profiles. I realize this isn't 1911 levels of thin but I am FULLY intending to buy one of these within the next couple of months but I wanted a quick a dirty opinion from someone who owns one.
Love my MK25 P226 in 9mm. It’s my EDC!
My experiences with this pistol. Reliable, quality and very accurate. No wonder it’s a $1,000 plus pistol.
That’s awesome! Wouldn’t expect anything less!
I dont have a 226, but i do have a 220 stainless elite, and a 220 CW nightmare. Love them both. Very similar design.........except for the caliber. Great review , thx. Also, great job on the new studio.
Thank you Dave! Glad you like it and the 220 is a great pistol!
This is a great review; I recently purchased a 226 and I absolutely love it. I have been a big fan of Sig's for quite some time now and I was able to purchase this at a great price. All that you have brought out it true. It is a lot different from my Glock but once you get use to the trigger pull it becomes a piece of cake. Great job and thank you for the review.
Thank you for watching!
The P99 AS is also a nice DA/SA pistol. Never shot the p226, but it looks like a solid pistol. Great video as always.
Very solid pistol, can’t recommend it enough!
That new studio is sick! Nice work
Thank you Joe! Appreciate it, it’s really nice to film in as well!
My favorite semi-auto handgun, because it’s such a pleasure to shoot at the range. And yeah, I could have bought the standard P226, or any of the dozen or so different 226 models, but the Navy seals thing hooked me on the Mark 25.
For sure! Love the 226!
Still relevant Without a doubt.
I have been slowly swapping to da/sa pistols over the last year and a half.
This is still the best go-to-war pistol on the market. I would trust this firearm with my life over all others. I am looking to add this model and the legion series to a collection.
It’s one sweet pistol with a hell of a track record!
The only pistol to beat it in reliability would be the HK USP/MK23 SOCOM family of pistols.
A friend of mine has admitted to owning "over 100 different handguns". How far over is questionable, and on fear that the exact number reaches his wife, he won't say.
He has one each of every S&W model from the post-WWII era, some Colts, every model of Glock, some High Standards, a few other brands of M1911s, a few European brands including Walther, Beretta, CZ, and HK.
One day he showed up unexpectedly, looking rattled.
"Someone made a credible threat against my life, and the State Police suggested I make myself scarce. I'm going to put my car in the barn, and if anyone asks, I'm not here."
I noticed a late production German SIG P-226 on his hip. I asked: New to you, used gun?
"No, I bought this new. This comes out when I'm no longer playing around.
When 'harms way' comes my way, everything else stays in the safe."
I’ve had the E2, the legion, and now own the MK-25. The legion was a race horse, the E2 is a work horse, and the MK-25 is the war horse between all three. I’m sticking with the MK-25 because of our shared history and it’s just a tank between all three.
@@FarmerStatesmandamn, whatever came of this story?
I gifted my Sig to my son as a graduation present in 2020 and have been patiently eyeing jumping back into the Sig market with either a MK25 Sig P226 or a M11 Sig P229 to supplement my Glocks.
Once I make the switch the Sig will be my exclusive everyday carry and trainer.
I have been told that the P-226 is too “big” to carry.
Was told the same about the Glock 17 but I have zero issues carrying the Glock 17 and know I will experience the same with either the P226 or P229 plus the slightly extra weight for the superior frame.
A good carry belt works wonders.
A hood belt can make a world of difference! I know of a couple people who have carried the P226! Thanks for watching!
A P226 was the first firearm I chose to buy for myself. And I've sold and bought more within the last few years learning what I like. And I always go back to the Sig
Can’t help but love the 226!
@@HuntFishShootChannel I foolishly sold my 226. Thinking my old 228 would do. But man I miss it. Going to buy a MK25 and I'm keeping that one!!
I started off my career in 99’ and was issued the S&W 4006 TSW. That firearm was a tank. All metal forged steel. A true heavyweight. Dependable and accurate. It rode by my side for almost 19 years before switching to the M&P .40. If I had a choice of a duty sidearm, it would be a P226 9mm Tac-Ops with 20 round magazines. Regardless of what the trend is, hammer fired guns are still relevant even today.
They are indeed!
My first gun was a Southfield PD 4006 trade in. It was like holding a brick.
@maxfit68906 you must be chippie
@@fkrr5Consider yourself lucky. Prior to Glock, 3rd Gen Smiths rode in more police holsters than any other firearm during the late 70’s all the way up to the early 90’s. There was a specific reason for that.
Good review, Would like to spend some time at the range shooting this gun. Thanks
Thank you! Enjoy it!
I liked it a lot back in the days. I now own a Sig Sauer P320 X Five (not Legion). It came from the factory with four 21 rounds magazines. I am pleased with this striker-fired polymer frame model.
The Legion 320 is one sweet pistol!
@@HuntFishShootChannel mine is the notch below, the X Five only, not the competition type Legion.
Nothing wrong with that! I enjoy the X five models!
@@HuntFishShootChannel 😎
Nice! I need to get one for my collection. I do have the P226 TacOPs version.
Excellent pistol! Really the Tac Ops model offers more to the shooter than the MK25
great vid have the m9 berretta thinking about getting one of these sigs. my first issue leo pistol a model 66 s@w revolver you earned a subscriber
Thank you for the sub! We appreciate your viewership! It’s a great pistol and if you like your M9 you will like this!
I carry a HK 45 quite often. Super accurate DA/SA. I have several Glocks, but love the HK. I never feel under gunned with the 10 round mags. I also carry a G19x. I love training with both. Keeps me sharp.
For sure! Need to train frequently!
Man I just put that e2 grip on my mk25 literally just a couple days ago and I’ll tell you what… that shit was a biiiiitch.
I don’t know if most people struggle as much as I did but it was rough lol.
Definitely wouldn’t do it again but I’m glad it’s on there. Feels much better.
No it’s definitely tough, even for a Sig certified armorer. Glad you figured it out!
Sig P2226 or P229 SAO models are wonderful! That takes care of the DA/SA issue.
I had one and practically gave it to my wife mother. She loves it, now don’t get me wrong I didn’t give it to her because of not like it but the opposite. As you said its a great handgun to have as a novice due to the trigger pull, hence being safe to handle. Most of my handgun are sig sauer’s 226 xtm, 229 40mm and the 45 mm. Love them all. In fact my xtm model in my own opinion fires better than the mk25, both are 226 but the trigger pull is better by a margin. Great video summary to this wonderful handgun. Keep it going. PS love the commercial to the AXil GS cause my wife was complaining to me about something as I was watching it 😂. Cheers
Hahah that’s funny. Glad you liked the little commercial we made up as well as the video!
Well done. Very informative. I own 2 Sigs
Thank you! Thanks for watching!
Bought me a beretta 92fs about 2 years ago, and i love it, my choice was between the 92fs and the p226. Had the money for the 92fs so got that, but i think ima get the p226 next
Heck yeah! You will love it!
I got my P226 MK25 because I already owned a Sig 1911 RCS and the M18. So I thought I would get the generation in-between. Now it's the only thing I carry.
Hell yeah!
I love my Sig MK 25. What a awesome great shooting pistol.👍
It sure is!
Great review. Which one do you prefer between this Sig or your Beretta M9a3?
Great looking side arm but my choice would be the Beretta 40cal open slide but the sig or hk would be next but the Beretta open slide great design
Great review on a classic model, appreciated.
I own it's little brother the P229 Legion model.
It's shootability & robust reliability far outweigh it's actual weight and DA first trigger pull.
It's built for combat period.
In modern times where weight and Gucci Glocks are priorities, not for me.
Admittedly, like anything else, it takes time and practice to perfect. If you are a confident and proficient shooter, it's an absolute dream to shoot.
You are correct! Really is a dream to shoot and just nice to be different sometimes!
I am not a 9mm fan, but if I were to buy a 9mm pistol. I would definitely buy this pistol. Sig P226 MK25 is “Awesome!”
It sure is!
Excellent Video: Out of entire lineup of Sig's, IMO "Sig P 210 & P 226 MK 25 come in at the top, although maybe just me, on some of these other models sig may be taking a step backwards.
Thank you! Those are two excellent options!
Relevant or not…. I love this gun. What’s sad is…. I have virtually every handgun on my bucket list except a 226. Love this video. Renewed my interest…. Gotta have one.
Get you one! They are a must have!
Ive carried a 226 16/7/365 for near a decaded now. To the point there are pics of of Christmas morning my kids opening gifts and its on my hip. If you new to that DA pull, get a red dot capable 226 and it will tell you whats happening thru the trigger press. Also, there are plenty of ways to customize the gun to you. My EDC is 7.5-8# DA & 2.75-3# SA with sub 1/8" reset. Nickle boron nitrate sear and hammer, gray guns ELS dual adjustable trigger. Some springs and you can still have a duty grade dependable DA/SA gun with a couple lbs less pull. One that shoots faster then most striker guns. I shoot many thousands of 9mm a year for years, and own or have owned most major striker guns. I think the only reason striker guns are more common is price and marketing. Striker technology is just as old as DA/SA too. How long have bolt action guns been around? Thats a striker fired gun.
Great! Thanks for sharing your experiences and input!
Get the short reset trigger bar put in. Great gun
I purchased this same SS P226 MK25 pistol, used, in 2015, for $730. Mine came with the Short Reset Trigger already installed. I love its DA/SA short reset trigger and the frame-mounted decocker.
Of all my 9mm Luger pistols:
- SS P226 MK25
- SS P229 R
- Gen3 Glock 17
- Gen3 Glock 19
- Gen3 Glock 34
- Gen4 Glock 26
- S&W M&P 9 M2.0 3.6" Sub-Compact
- S&W M&P 9 O.R. M2.0 4" Compact
- S&W M&P 9 ProSeries C.O.R.E. M2.0 5" Full Size
this P226 MK25 is the most accurate, best built, highest quality, smoothest operating, and my favorite. It's the one I'll never sell or trade. When my time on Earth is over, this pistol will go to my son.
Good things! 👍
Great pistols for sure! Hard not to like the P226 in general!
Looking to add one to my collection, also not crazy about appendix carrying a striker fired gun, like my Glock 19.
It’s a great one for the collection, little bit on the large side for EDC on the appendix carry.
I have all kinds of striker fired pistol in glock m&p and p320s. I always come back to the p226 or the m9 you can't beat the trigger in them.
The P226 is a great gun! Dream to shoot
"Impervious environments"? 🤣 what even is that? Great video though, and excellent points.
7:32 OOOF!!! That was close. Glad you caught it.
Ah it’d be alright
@@HuntFishShootChannel Ya. I've done that too! Lol.
😂 thanks for watching!
ive been searching high and low for the e2 grip kit for my mk25 but they are currently impossible to find right now
This one has had them for quite some time. Good luck, hope you find them!
Yes the e2 grips are much better. I don’t have them on my mk25 but I have them on my p229 and I really like them
They are a night and day difference!
I own a P229 M11A1. I know it’s basically the same thing with a shorter barrel but I’m tempted to buy an MK25!
They shoot differently though, so not a complete waste 😂
The Beretta 92F's barrel is also chromelined, except for the Inox versions.
Good to know, but not all are. Thank you for watching!
@@HuntFishShootChannel I believe chromelining of the Beretta 92F barrels was a requirement by the US military on those pistols. That is why the 92 F pistols we see, either military or civilian versions have chromelined barrels. It would be a logistical challenge to put chromelined barrels to pistols supplied to the military and non-chromelined barrels for civilian pistols. Comes out cheaper in the end.
True thanks for the information! Appreciate the feedback!
I’ve always loved the 226. Bought mine used like 9-10 years ago and paid over 1,100$ for it. I still love it, and own over 25 pistols.
Hard not to love them!
Great shooting by the way. I just picked up my mk25, but i have to wait till October 4 to get my legion 226. (Nj gun laws)
Thank you!
I prefer the p226 in .40 S&W or .357 Sig, but the MK25 is iconic. I purposely tracked-down a P226 chambered in .40 as my "alternate caliber" pistol, as I have lighter, polymer-framed guns for 9mm. I think the extra weight of an all-metal gun like the p226 is well-suited to a heavier-recoiling cartridge like the .40.
Great thanks for sharing!
I love my MK25 I am curious about your E2 grip I haven’t seen much info on them
It’s a grip by Sig, look them up! Superior to the original grips in every way
@@HuntFishShootChannel I have done a little research I think I just need to feel a set in my hands to move forward. I appreciate your response btw.
I have been looking for this gun for awhile now. Could anyone help on where I could get one of these?
What is the holster that you are using in this video? Have this pistol coming in and wanting to get a holster that can work with the True North Concepts holster adapter. Thanks.
Blackhawk omnivore, it indexes off the light and can be used with hundreds of pistols
Just picked up my MK25 today.
Awesome!
How about the P226 "Elite" in 9mm with the G-10 (rattlesnake-like) grips?
Haven’t seen one in quite some time! The P226 series of pistols are excellent as a whole
I noticed that a couple of times on the last shot the slide did not keep open. Any specific reason of why, that you can mention? Thank you.
Yes my thumb riding the slide release lever on the gun! Shooter error
Irrelevant question but what brand is the black camo woobie hoodie. The guy is wearing when shooting the pistol. Thanks in advance.
The guy is wearing a Black Rifle Coffee Company hoodie, they don’t make them anymore.
I prefer the SIG P226 made in W. Germany 1990. It is a pity that SIG doesn't produce anymore in Europe....I love the Black Water and the Navy Seal but the previous ones not the Mk 25.
That holster u have new Blackhawk? Do they have one that might fit a 226 SAO that clears safety?
Yes it’s the Blackhawk Omnivore, I use with 2011 and 1911, and my M9A3, no problems.
Not only is it still relevant its my go to home defense gun. But mine is 226 extreme. This gun I know will go bang every time. Its accurate and easy to shoot. Put a red dot and its easy to run drills. To me just as good if not better than striker fired pistols.
It’s a phenomenal pistol and will go down in history as one of the finest combat pistols ever made.
Would a Sig P226 Mk 25 allow dry firing repetitively without racking the slide each time?
Yes it does!
I own this model and the Beretta 92fs in inox. I'll never get rid of them.
Good choice!
Rookie numbers. Let us know when you hit double digits on the handguns.
I've just started shooting as a sport and for pleasure. I would like to buy a first gun. I like very much the design of sig sauer. I hesitate among P226, P320, P322. What do you suggest as a first gun?
226 would be a great choice. The 320 is a good one also. Very user friendly. If not an Sig, Glock or Shadow Systems is a good idea!
I purchased my first two Sigs in 1995, at that time, not many people were familiar with the brand. They say made in West Germany on the slide
That is awesome! Some originals!
@@HuntFishShootChannel Yes, a guy at my gun range has offered my significant amounts of money for them.
You hang on to those!
@@HuntFishShootChannel I’d have to be nearing homelessness before I sell them! Lol
Please tell me what holster you are running with this TL light!
It’s a Blackhawk Omnivore
Coming from the world of revolver shooting, DA/SA was already natural for me. I love my mk25 and would depend on it if need be.
Hell yeah!
What firearm would you choose for service? I'm between Sig 226 and CZ 75. Do you have any better recommendations?
P226, carried one for duty use for 7 years before we switched to the P320. Tons of great options out there!
Carried a Sig P22- series gun now a decade. Currently have both 226 and 227 decked out by Add the armory craft smooth action SRT kit, SIG armorer's hammer spur, dual adj grey guns reduced feel pull weight. You have the smoothest 8lbs dbl action out there, and a 3 lbs single action that rivals many 2011's. Have milled and put a duty grade optic on. You have possibly the best GTW pistol on the planet with a trigger that's both safe to carry and rivals race guns. Why? Guns are ment to be metal not plastic, and carrying a gun on body with stored energy behind the primer (striker fire) is inherently more dangerous then not having stored energy behind a live round. Of a gun attached to your body 16/7/365. Even 1911's have two external safeties bc of the inherent risk. Both thumb and grip. And a Sig p320 has zero external safeties. Glock has one trigger shoe safety, thanks but pass on the Tupperware
Thanks for the input sounds like you have a great set up!
@@HuntFishShootChannel thanks!! Spent lots of money trying different parts, RDS, optic plates, and many different pistols. Try to tell what I've learned in my experience as to the best overall combination. I rely on my pistol frequently both at possible distance and up close. My career is a land surveyor. Ppl (especially country folk, no disrespect i am one) believe they can pull guns on or shoot at anyone that steps on their property. Not the case!!!. I am legally allowed to trespass anywhere I need to perform my job. I can't knock on everyone's door (never get work done) and I may need to cross a dozen plus properties to legally prove the boundary of one parcel. The climate our gov has created has only made ppl more on edge and defensive. Had guns shoved in my face 1-4 times a year, come across meth ops, marijuana grows, had ppl try to run me down, attack an intern, neighbors who attack clients. Stalked by a crazy man head to toe camo with a rifle (told the cop the crosshairs we're on my head with safety off), lots of anger and screaming. I can't carry a long gun but odds are if I'm in a situation I'm up against someone with the edge of a long gun. I say all that to say my opinion is based on lots of life threatening experience and dependant on a tool that won't fail when it's needed most. I need a gun I can rely on for 1st round hit off the draw (dbl action) at distance farther then most ppl think possible with a pistol. 75-100 yards. I test my tools hard in snow, rain, mud, all nature can dish out. I train and shoot weekly. My wife and kids need me, too old to start a new career at 45. When I say the 226 is the best. I've put it thru hell, carried it and trained with it in demanding harsh conditions and tried to find anything that can beat it.
Hey I’m first! P226 or Beretta 92?
P226, the trigger on my M9A3 is better or both DA and SA but I just love 226 pistols.
1913 rail in place of the sig rail is a huge plus as well.
For sure!
Muzzle rise is negligible. Yowser! 👍🏿😘
Thank you David! Anyone can do it with proper form and grip!
Great video now for my question a person who is looking to buy his first Sig p226 should I get the Mk226 or the legion version?
Hmmm I would say the legion version
mk25 has Hard Coat Anodized so that’s for if you were in salt water and you were shooting at someone it protects your firearm from corrosion. Which is a good feature does the legion have something similar that would prevent rust ?
Yes it does, I wouldn’t be concerned with rust on the legion!
@@HuntFishShootChannel thank you
For the night sights is it #8 Front/#8 Rear or #8 Front/#6 Rear or vice versa?
Not sure on that tech information
The SIG P226 is the combat 9mm that all others are judged against. Absolutely a perfect sidearm.
It is a great pistol no doubt!
First gun I ever shot at a range. (thank you Battlefield Vegas :) Extremely accurate I've wanted one ever since. Will be my next purchase when the wife gives me my allowance 😂
Sweet shooters for sure!
What’s that black multicam jacket you’re wearing in the shooting footage
That is a Black Rifle Coffee Company black camo woobie hoodie.
@@HuntFishShootChannel thanks. I was just wondering. It looks really nice
It is very nice indeed lol I love it!
Did you ever compare the P226 Mk 25 with a P226 Scorpion with the short reset trigger?
No we did not
I love this gun.
Me too
Aren't most Sig barrels chrome lined? I've owned Springfields and CZs and all of those have chrome lined barrels as well.
The overwhelming majority of pistols are not chromelined. My standard 226 is not.
I really regret selling my p220 and p226 combat models in fde they also had the chrome lined barrels . Oh well I'll go hug my Scar 17s.
Hahha fair reason to do so.
@@HuntFishShootChannel just found a p229 combat!!!!!
What firearm replaced the MK 25 for the Seals?
G19 is used commonly. Most of those units have freedom of choice for their sidearm
Wait. The E2 grips can be put on any MK25??
That is correct! The MK25 is not any different than any other 226 with the exception of some special coating!
@@HuntFishShootChannel cool thanks I just bought one today and lamented the fact that the 229 elite next to it felt much better… now I’m completely satisfied with it lmao.
the donuts,,,, made me laugh haha
Good we are glad!
I don’t get why people say double action is so hard. Literally use the first trigger crease or the “power crease,” people. You’ll find it takes almost no strength to pull it quickly and effectively. And funnily enough if you pull fast enough, you can avoid the wall and essentially have a “wall-less,” trigger pull. Using a two handed grip, you only get faster. Take care and keep training everybody. DA/SA ftw.
For sure!
I believe this is the perfect sidearm for personal defense. If someone has a better option please let me know
It is a great option but there are tons of others too. Just what the individual prefers
Still one of the best and reliable guns. Polymer sigs suck but the 220 series are great
I'm looking at getting a Mk 25 for my 21st birthday and my first EDC firearm
It’s a great shooting gun which will
Give you many years of service!
@@HuntFishShootChannel just out of curiosity, I'm looking at the P226 Tac Ops, Legion RXP, and of course, the Mk25, and considering I'm from Louisiana on the Gulf Coast with a lot of humidity and salt, corrosion is something I'm trying to think about which is the main reason I think I'm leaning towards the Mk25, but what do you think? It's meant to be an EDC firearm, be it going fishing or put in the Gulf all day on a boat or out in town.
The MK25 would be ideal for humid wet conditions around saltwater!
@@HuntFishShootChannel awesome thought so! I genuinely appreciate the feedback. It's incredible from this channel. You've definitely earned a subscription
Awesome! I’m glad to hear that!
Your duty gun is a Sig correct? Which model?
Yessir. It’s a P320 Carry size and before this it was a P226 40 CAL DAK
yes
Correction @ 2:48 - Mk25/P226 has an aluminum alloy frame
You are correct, but watch the whole video and listen to all the talking points 👍. Thanks for the input!
If the price is any indication of relevance, then they are. They are $1000. Thanks for posting.
You are welcome! Thanks for watching!

The P226? Never, it’s an icon
