Buying a Sig P226 need advice

I am going to purchase a 226 and there are so many damn models it's almost impossible to decide. I like the Scorpion and the MK25 FDE. Any suggestions? Need a threaded barrel option as well.

I have the TACOPS and like it. It came with 4 - 20 rd mags and night sights. No threaded barrel.

Don't pay the extra for the anchor and the phosphated internals that you will never use. Go the TacOps route. They make a threaded barrel variant and you get SRT, TFO front sight, and 4 20rd mags (should be 5 for an even 100rds, smh sig)

I got the plain, but wish I had the Navy.
For a TB, I think you're limited to:
Combat - which I think is just the 2-tone FDE and Nitron. Plus phosphate coated internals like the Mk25
Scorpion - which is just the tan finish, beavertail and custom grips.
Tacops - Fiber optic front sight, nitron with beavertail
Mk 25 - Which is the navy configuration, phosphate coated internals, night sights standard and 3 magazines.
I think you can get another model and add the threaded barrel, but you've already settled on 2 of those that come with TB available.
As far as your specific, MK25 FDE - Sig's website doesn't show that pistol - it shows the MK25 desert, but that does not show a threaded barrel. Your dealer may be able to get one, but I would be very, very specific about the part number/model number before ordering.
Sig's website shows 21 separate P226 models.

I really dig the legion p226. Only change I would have done was to make the grip panels more like the tac ops or emperor scorpion 1911 and added the flared mag well.
Threaded barrels are an easy change. With the LH tread of sig factory barrels I would want an aftermarket like si co or someone with RH threads so I didn't have to change Pistons across guns

I have a P226 Scorpion. It came with 2 15-round magazines that I can only get 14 rounds into. Very smooth operating pistol. Love the factory grips.
