I bought this exact gun for conceal carry 2 months ago after much research. The gun I was previously carrying was the Beretta 92 fs. I truly do think this sig is a perfect gun for me. Everything thing about it pleases me from it's color to the way it puts em where I want them. I recommend this gun to anyone.
That's awesome Joey! Both are great guns for sure. Thank you for sharing and cheers!
Picked mine up a little over a month ago, didn't even know i needed it until I held it in my hands. Great find and spot on review.
Thank you very much Artie! It’s a great shooter for sure. Cheers brother!
After seeing your video made me go buy one. I wasn't disappointed! Thanks
Excellent video very informative and thorough! Now I really want one
Great deal, great gun, and great review! Love that frame color!
Thank you very much YoungGunner! Cheers brother
That is really a nice firearm, love that blue color, and as always a great review.
Thank you Keanon! For the price, it’s tough to beat. Cheers brother!
What a beautiful handgun i bet is super accurate. Thanks for sharing man
Thank you very much Sergio! It’s a fun gun indeed brother. Cheers!
I've been watching alot of reviews of sa/da pistols lately. The P229 and PX4 Storm compact carry both seem like good options in 9mm. I'll check both out when I return home from otr trucking. I enjoy the way you keep your reviews moving. No chance of dozing off! 🎅
Yamaha Rider px 4 storm is good n half the price of p229 but both r great guns considering I have both lol
Beautiful gun. You confirmed it for me, this is gotta be my next purchase
That’s awesome Charlie! It’s a fantastic gun indeed. Cheers!
Love the Sigs!
Agreed Rich! Thank you and cheers brother
Sweet dude! My boss got one of those (for 650) I couldn't believe it. I love the 229 /226 pistols. Sigs are definitely great pistols
That's awesome Shawn! I hope your boss will share it with you. It's a great shooter for sure. Thank you and cheers brother!
Need to buy this one. This will be my first Sig. I just bought last night the beretta m9a3 to complete my beretta collection of military service firearms. Cant wait to get it!
Congrats on the new purchase! The P229 is pretty sweet indeed, though the M9A3 is freaking cool. Well done! Thank you and cheers brother!
Great pistol. I bought a blue titanium P229 a few weeks ago and it is becoming one of my favorite guns.
That’s awesome Bryan! It’s a great gun indeed brother. Thank you and cheers!
For carry, I like a double action/single action. Since my gal suddenly preferred my Titanium Blue P229 Enhanced Elite for her house gun, I've got her P320 RX Compact. The 229 is a softer shooter, but if I could only keep one gun it would be the RX. I put TFX Pro sights on the 229, mounted a light on it for her and it's a helluva firearm. I heard the titanium blue was a special run for a chain store and nobody bought them. A pair of them showed up at my local Point Blank in the Greater Cleveland area. I believe the MSRP was around $1175, it was in the case for $800, and I bought it for $700 and felt like I got a great deal. I wish I would have bought them both. The E2 grip size is similar to a P320 "small" and it handles beautiful. Dynamite gun.
Really nice Review & beautiful Pistol Brother! Carry On
Thank you Big J!
Awesome pistol KS I love the P229. Good choice 👍
Thank you Youngguns! Cheers brother

Another Excellent review KSGG!
The P229 Enhanced Elite Blue Titanium is a sweet pistol. However, since you kept mentioning it... you should have passed on a couple Glocks and gone all in for a Legion.
I have several P2XX Sigs. My first Legion though was a P229, I have since picked up a P226 SAO and P220 Carry Legion.
Considering all you get with the Legion, they are well worth the extra cost IMHO
Keep the Great content coming!
Lol... gotta have my Glocks too! Seru=iously though you are right and at some point I will go back to the Legion. They really are one of the finest guns I have ever owned/shot. Sounds like you have an awesome collection! Thanks as always and cheers brother!
Thanks!
I bought one last week for 640.00 have not shot it yet Super review!!
That’s awesome James! It’s a sweet shooter for sure. Fantastic price too! Hopefully you’ll get to shoot it soon. Keep me posted! Cheers
will do
I need to get a Sig maybe this one great review!
I highly recommend it Keith! Cheers brother
Good review KS. What a great looking gun. I can't wait to buy a 226. Will most likely be my next purchase.
That’s awesome David! It’s a great performer at a reasonable price. Thank you as always and cheers!
David, thank you for the kind words in your comments to Nolan! That was awesome of you!
KSGunGuy 01 I like to see people do well in life. Especially when they are putting in the effort. Thank you for taking the time to reach out to me.
Very nice!
Thank you Lyle! Cheers brother
Ive got a MK25.....wish i would have bought the 229 . Great review & nice pistol
Thank you CCC! How's the mk25? I'd love to learn more. Cheers brother!
KSGunGuy 01 big heavy sucky IMO.
Gotcha. I'll pass then, lol.
I love Sig and they are very proud of their pistols, but I do have to say I was surprised at the price on this one. I was figuring $800 as soon as I read the title. This looks like an amazing pistol, love the sights and the SRT is great. Congrats on the pick-up and have a great weekend!
Thank you Fu! It's a steal in the 600 to 700 dollar range. Thank you as always and cheers brother!
When it was brand new it was around 1k lol amazing deal on them now
Blue titanium? It's feeding my Sig addiction. Very good review
Thank you Joey! No shame in some Sig addiction brother. Cheers!
KSGunGuy may I ask: what was the price on this one?
KSGunGuy I want to give you some food for thought. What you do with this advice is up to you. The slide stop is exactly that, a "slide stop", not a slide release. The only time I recommend using the slide stop as a release is during that life or death situation that calls for speed in order to save you and your loved ones. Using the slide stop to release the slide will cause excess wear on the leading corner of the slide stop until it will no longer hold the slide after firing the last round in your pistol. Should that happen during a lethal encounter it will ruin your day. I was told this as a kid, reassured this in Vietnam. It's just good advice. "O", spending money for new parts to replace worn out parts may not be a big deal, but being able to get to the the store and buy them is. Your video was nicely done and I like your P229 Enhanced Elite.
Thank you for your thoughts! Cheers!
Gorgeous Gun
Thank you very much! Cheers Guy
If you shop around at gun shows you can find 229 mags and get them cheep, I bought 8 229 40 cal mags for $40 one lucky day and then proceeded to order 9mm followers. In all I had about $60 in 8 mags. That's a steal.
That's awesome! Great to know brother!
KS the great bargain hunter. :):). Nice gun
Lol.... I wish! Thank you as always and cheers Bald!
Nice titanium blue sig p229 bro, I have same p229 elite but I have the black one and 40 cal
Very accurate and reliable.
I agree Vandoeun! Thank you and cheers
i Have one, shoots like a dream never a fail to fire or fail to feed, reliable like all sigs and accurate out of the box
That's awesome! I'm jealous. Glad yours is running for you!
Nice.
Thank you Niki! Cheers
Looks like a strong value offering from sig. not sure I would walk past a P01 for this, but at that price I would definitely entertain it more.
It’s a fantastic shooter for sure Humble! I recommend giving it a whirl. Cheers brother
229 all day for me over any CZ or 226 even that’s just me thiughz
@@tacticalbt1023 I agree
Beautiful gun. I just picked up a sig 229 sas and it shoots awesome and carries well. Sig has a promotion if you buy a gun up until oct 15 you will get 2 free mags and a gun bag.
Thank you Greg! I saw that deal and registered for it. Hopefully we won’t have to wait 6 months! Cheers brother
The enhanced elite wasnt included on that :( i got mine for 590 though...sooooooo
Long time Glock guy here. Great review! Been drooling over Sigs lately. Really torn between this one and the Legion. Is the Legion really worth the extra cost? I really love those x-ray sights on the Legion, and the finish looks amazing... but I do love the sharp, refined look of the Elite... plus, actually the extended beavertail has grown on me so much, that I actually would prefer to have it! Ahhhh decisions...
Thank you Jarod! The Legion is truly amazing but you can get very close with something like this and perhaps save a few dollars for ammo and range time. Good luck with your decision and keep me posted! Cheers brother
KSGunGuy Thanks brother, I’ve got some things to consider, thanks to your great video. Subscribing. Carry on man!
Thank you and carry on as well!
Saw this on reddit wanted it
You can get the legion sights for the 229. SigSauer X-ray 3 sights. 129.99
That’s awesome! I will check them out Eric. Thank you and cheers!
I just recently picked up the same model. Which holsters have you found that work.
Hello everyone. I am a small woman who has never shot but friends have referred me to the Sig, more specifically the Legion. What is your feed back please. My state of NH has open carry so that is what I want to do.
Judy Moon I recommend the sig p238 micro compact . My wife is a small lady and that gun offered the best control for her. Get it in complete stainless steel frame and slide for better recoil control.
The 229 legion is a little bulky in the grip, that is coming from my wife when she first shot my 229 legion. You could try the Sig P225, it has a slim grip and good for ccw. The only things is - you can only buy them in the used market. Sig, I believe no longer makes em.
I'm not really a big Sig fan but that is a beautiful pistol
Thank you very much Pops! I think you'd really enjoy it brother. Cheers!
Very nice review KS. If I'm not mistaken the P229 is built on a 40 S&W frame. Just like the Steyr M9, S&W M&P & Sigma, etc, etc.
I think you're trying to tell me something Matteo, lol. I believe you are correct on that. Beefy but still light and fun to shoot! Thank you as always and cheers brother!
KSGunGuy 01 Only thing intended by my comment was, I find it interesting that some of these fantastic 9mm's seem to be built on 40 frames. I'm certainly not pushing my caliber preference. Although I do like a diversity of cartridges. Instead of this utterly myopic trend of we should be limited to just 9 & 45.
An excellent point. I'm bad about that and really should venture into some new calibers. Unfortunately it's so difficult to sell them should the need arise and I have to be mindful of that with these reviews. Sadly I can't keep them all. I agree, 9 and 45 seem to be the big calibers these days.
KSGunGuy 01 If the other calibers don't appeal I completely understand. We all like what we like. And don't what we don't. I also understand when ppl consolidate or choose to be more selective in their caliber choices. But what I don't get is the hatred and desire for these cartridges to fade away and just die. I'm no fan of the 357 Sig. I believe it to be a bit overrated. But I'm certainly not advocating for it to be gotten rid of.
100% agree with you there. I thinks there's a place for all calibers. I like the 357 example and would love to shoot one some day!
Love my M11-A1 P229/228 3.9" 9mm 15 rd Night Sights $825 total cost so far never jammed 3 mags / 29.6 Oz no rail Mill spec for salt water
That's awesome Dan! Great stuff brother. Thank you and cheers!
Good review as always. You might be off on the weight. I get 2 lbs. .8 ounces on my Enhanced Elite (32.8 oz). They advertise 34.4 ounces, so I'm not sure about 29 and 1/2 ounces).
Thank you! Although it's been a while since I've had that 229, I believe it was an alloy rather than all steel. Shaves a few ounces off the gun. Cheers!
I just got a Elite carry Talo limited edition and love it!! Think I like it better than my FN509 tactical.. Double action is smooth and easy, unless you got baby fingers why complain about trigger pull? Lol I can see if you was older 65-70+yrs old..
Man I almost just purchased this same elite. Great pistol for the money. Good deal. I ended up picking up a OD green CZ P-01 instead. Wonder if I made the right decision?
The P01 is a great gun Elliot! I think you chose well my friend. Thank you and cheers!
Please decock the hammer before sliding the slide forward during disassembly. :)
-Sig Sauer Germany
I'm thinking of this gun vs glock 19 for ccw☑️ Any suggestion? Thanks
Managed to find one online for $650 today. Had to make the purchase.
That’s awesome Kendall! They are great shooters for sure brother. Cheers!
If anyone is interested you can get this gun here for $700. I couldn't find another vendor online that actually had any in stock. www.507outfitters.com/product/sig-sauer-p229-elite/
Nice. Maybe keep this for the Wednesday night chat, but do you think we will see the death of metal frame DA/SA pistols? Every young person I see buying and shooting pistols has a polymer, striker fired pistol.
Thank you Craig! Great question and we should absolutely talk about it! Hopefully they aren't dead. Tons of fun to shoot! Cheers brother!
I'm 25 and I carry a CZ PCR and P-07. I also have an Inox Beretta. The only striker pistol I have is the TP9SFX
I doubt DA/SA will ever die
Nice!
Which one is more accurate p229 enhances elite or 320X compact in ur opinion
$600-700 range?!!! I just bought one in California for $1150 before tax. Are gun in California just more expensive?
Current 2022 price in Cali is $1000-$1200
really nice gun and I really like the blue.....I'm just not a Sig guy
1776 or Bust Guns, Gear and all things related. Me neither. Had 226 it collected dust.
Lol. You need to give it a try! I really sweet shooter, I promise. We don't even have to tell CZ! Cheers brother!
Haha! Exactly Kota!
Lol. It's all good Shep. Maybe due for a revisit?
I'm with you 1776. There was a time I was very much into Sig. But that time has passed. Although I did enjoy a 2022 I had bought recently.
226 enhanced elite w 6 mags for 700 should i buy?
That's a heck of a deal, especially if it's new or at least like new. Thank you and cheers!
The only DA/SA pistols I would only be Sig or CZ
I must agree with you there. I’m not a big DA/SA guy, but they would be top of the list. Cheers!
Where did you get this special blue edition? love it, couldn’t find it on sig website
I think they are still out there it was an official release from Sig in mid 2017
thanks for reply buddy
I just bought one from one of my local shops. He was telling me that the Blue Titanium was a short - limited edition that they only made for 2017. Glad I got one when I did.
All my 229s have 4.4 trigger pull in SA
Would a 229rx slide fit on a 229 enhanced elite frame?
Yes, I believe it would. They should be identical. Thank you and cheers!
That’s a beauty
Ahoy.... Where I can find one P229 Enhanced Elite Ti Blue ? Thanks in advance. All the best.
I think it was a special edition but I bet you can find them on Gun Broker. Thank you and cheers!
I want a sig so bad. Anybody have any leads out there? I live in Cali by the way
Legion sights are called X-Ray!
Thank you! Cheers Robert
4.4 pounds on SA!
Add a Gray Guns PSAIT trigger $49 and you pretty much have a legion
Thank you Eric! Another great suggestion. Cheers!
It's what I did to my p229. Exact gun you show here
Awesome!
KS any chance of long gun reviews in the future?
Great question D! You know, I haven't thought about venturing down that path with the channel as I know know so little about them. What would you want to see? Thank you and cheers!
KSGunGuy 01 , when it comes to the world of guns I love them all. I appreciate your fair critiquing and though it would be enjoyable to another aspect to it
That means a lot D! I’m open to ideas if the budget allows, lol. I’ve thought about a 9mm AR pistol or something. Think that would be cool?
KSGunGuy 01 of course it would be. Try building your own it's very gratifying and you can buy piece which is easy on the budget. Might as well have a couple of them in my opinion since the White house is second amendment friendly right now. Well all know it won't stay that way unfortunately.
Well said D! I will look into it and credit you for the inspiration. Thank you brother!
I bought one.
Congrats!
I want that one so bad. I have no clue where to find one
I'd check online often. I think they are still out there, Thank you and cheers!
These guns are $1200 bucks now
Accessory rail for your lights, lasers, GRENADE LAUNCHERS...lol
okay.
Always important to have. Thank you and cheers!
Nice gun, but not a fan of the bi-colored frame and slide. Why wont manufacturers just make the slides the same color?? Doesnt make sense to me.
Different strokes for different folks?
*_I WONDER WHY THEY MADE THE SP2022 so DIFFICULT. WELL NOT DIFFICULT BUT ALOT OF STEPS TO TAKE IT APART. ANOTHER THING, WHY DO PPL SAY THE SP2022 is CALLED THE CHEAP MANS 226/229. I THINK THAT IS A PRETTY DUMB STATEMENT. I THINK ITS A STARTER GUN FROM SIG TO MAYYOU WANT THEIR HIGHER END MODELS. LIKE MY 229 I finally got and freakin love it_*
Interesting stuff indeed! Thank you and cheers!
Can I has it pls gooby
pls.
Maybe someday!
