re: Experience question on a Sig P229

I have a 229 legion in 357sig. Overall it's an extremely nice gun. It shoots great, has been perfectly reliable. The sights, trigger, ergonomics, everything about it are great from a functional standpoint.

The finish on it however is not so great. I carry mine daily and I have to pull the side plates off and clean the decocker lever and other controls or they will rust. For a $1000+ pistol that's a letdown. It's not a big deal but it does suck.

Overall I love the thing. Is it worth what it costs? Probably not, it goes bang just like a glock goes bang. It is a very nice gun that is well put together and easy to shoot and carry though. Doing it again I'd probably make the same purchase, except maybe get a 226 instead since the 229 is pretty big already.
