I have the P229 in 40. The nice thing about buying the 40S&W is that you can convert it to a 357sig or 9mm with a simple barrel change. The 357 sig uses the 40S&W magazines and if you convert to 9mm you have to buy 9mm magazines.

My P229 had a DAK trigger when I purchased and I converted it to DA/SA. I like the DA/SA much more than the DAK.

ya the one i rented was a DA/SA but trigger still feels a bit heavy, i think i'm just so used to my beretta that i compare every gun i shoot against it. I have probably shot over 2000+ rounds out of my Beretta since shooting any other gun.

do you guys think it would be wise for me to sell my Beretta 96 to get a glock 19? in your guys oppinion, do you feel like thats an upgrade or a downgrade?

What sold me on the P226 Elite was the short reflex trigger, which translates into less hand movement when shooting in the range. It is a well made gun and quite purdy.

it's purely personal but i don't think glock is nearly the same qaulity as the baretta. not soemthing i would do.

Actually you don’t have to buy 9mm magazines. I bought a P229 SAS 40S&W and then bought a Fire Dragon .357Sig barrel for it. I recently bought a Fire Dragon 9mm barrel and a pair of Sig 9mm magazines. The only difference between the 40/357Sig magazine and the 9mm magazine is the little holes that tell you how many rounds are in the magazine. Otherwise the magazines are interchangeable, at least as far as I can tell.

Does anyone have any different information on that?

I am getting a CZ rami 9mm tomorrow never had a CZ just wanted one . My next Sig will be a 226
