I live in southern california and would like to buy a sig 226st I have checked around and every where i go they are retards when it comes to ordering. I tell them that they have to put st at the end of the 226 and they just dont understand and give up. So I cannot compare prices. I did however walk into the stockade in westminster and saw the exact gun a 226st in .40, however the price tag was $1030. I dont know if this a great price or not because I cant get any prices from turners. Is this fair can I bargain? Are there some great gun shops in orange county or Los angeles? I can get a Xfive comp for $1600 but seems a little to much. Is the xfive worth an extra $600 for a guy that does not shoot in competitions?
